Cornfed Iowa native Deborah Cox digs the salmon

San Leandro Councilmember Deborah Cox, born and raised in Iowa, sits down with Lee Thomas. "I'm meat and potatoes all the way," Cox said. Nevertheless, she loved GrilleeQ's cedar plank roasted salmon. Over lunch, Cox talks about governing during the pandemic, losing touch with her colleagues during Zoom meetings, and the city's quick economic turnaround.
