Term Limits & Leadership Renewal

Gray supports the implementation of term limits. This major commitment would establish a leadership renewal standard that applies beyond any one officeholder.

  • Apply the reform to every mayor, including Gray herself, rather than framing it around one incumbent.
  • Connect periodic leadership renewal to the promise of Inglewood’s next chapter.
