The Sierra Club has given Kriss their endorsement for his re-election run for Berkeley City Council in 2010.
Kriss expresses his sentiments in a poem:
The Sierra Club says you should vote for me,
And who am I to disagree
To non-profit groups I found money to give,
to help the seniors, poor, and disabled live
For Peace, for Labor, for Consumer Rights,
I go to meetings most days and nights;
I practice real diversity:
the MOST Asians, Latinos, students and women were appointed by me;
When concern for taxpayers was moribund,
I made the motion for the Rainy Day Fund;
To stop violent crime I wrote a plan,
for ambassadors working with “ the Man”; -
Small businesses I helped with parking and lease,
so you can come and shop here please ;
I voted no on the bad BRT,
but lets get EcoPasses and Multimodal Connectivity;
As a tenant myself I know how it feels,
so I help lotsa tenants try for better deals.
I work long hours at very low pay,
to get Northside and Southside to have their say;
I love our people and love what I do;
An Independent Progressive Voice working for YOU
I reformed the permit process but it’s still not right,
so you need to keep me there on Tuesday night!
