I am running for the MAR District Director seat in the 14th District to effect change in my district in the city of Detroit. It is time for a change in Detroit and I firmly believe in serving. My goal and mission continues to be one of service. I believe in human rights and decent housing for everyone regardless of income. I will continue to work for social justice at all times. I seek to influence and direct our local communities to become knowledgeable about their local, state and national governmental policies, to become engaged in the political process and to hold their elected officials accountable. Property rights and ownership continue to decline in the City of Detroit and elsewhere. Boarded up properties continue to erode property values. If elected to the Michigan Association of Realtors I will become an agent of change for the citizens of Detroit and Michigan. Let’s change the way we do business in Detroit! Vote for Tonya Mullen for CHANGE!
