Mayor Taylor Addresses U.S. Conference of Mayors
Mayor Kathy Taylor spoke twice last weekend at the U.S. Conference of Mayors in Miami, FL, where mayors from throughout the U.S. and neighboring countries were gathered twice when that group met in Miami, FL, for its annual conference.
The keynote speaker was U.S. Sen. Barack Obama who addressed the group Saturday morning.
Mayor Taylor spoke Friday in a session called “Digital Literacy: How to Build a Globally Competitive Workforce in Your City.” The session addressed “workforce enhancement and micro/small business stimulus programs.” Mayor Taylor was chosen for the session as a mayor of a city that has “implemented highly focused digital inclusion strategies.”
She spoke again on Sunday in a session entitled, “Community/Military Relations Task Force,” which examines best practices in community and military relations. Mayor Taylor has launched several initiatives for Tulsa veterans and active military personnel and their families, including the Veteran’s Resource Center/Help on the Home Front which was announced last week.
