이 대표의원은 "지난 5년간 오세훈 시정으로 서울시민의 삶은 더욱 어려워졌다"며, 서울시를 ‘오세훈의 대권가도’에서 '민주당의 민생가도'로 전환하겠다는 비상한 각오를 밝혔다.
그는 “의석수가 많다고 모든 문제를 해결할 수 없다는 것을 우리는 경험으로 알고 있다”면서 “80명의 동지들과 함께 철저한 준비와 단결된 원팀 정치력으로 오세훈 시정을 실력으로 압도하겠다”고 강조했다.
이 대표의원은 이를 실현하기 위한 4대 핵심 공약과 혁신 과제를 제시했다.
① ‘정책조정회의‧정책의총’ 상설화, 오세훈 시정 견제 컨트롤타워 구축
오세훈 시정 견재와 민생정책 생산을 위해 ‘정책조정회의’와 ‘정책의총’, 그리고 ‘더불어서울포럼’을 공식 상설 운영기구로 정례화한다. 전문적이고 안정적인 운영을 위해 대표의원실 내에 전담지원팀을 구축할 계획이다.
② '원스톱 의정활동 지원시스템' 도입
기획부터 내용 제작, 후속 홍보까지 전 과정을 체계적으로 돕는 ‘시정질문 전문기획단’과 지역 현안 및 민원 해결을 위한 ‘찾아가고 찾아오는 컨설팅자문단’을 운영한다. 현 상임위원회 소속인 정책지원관을 교섭단체 소속으로 전환해 의정활동 지원 역량을 한층 강화할 방침이다.
③ 시의회‧국회‧서울시장 '3각 공조체제' 가동
‘서울시의회 민주당-더불어민주당 서울시당-국회 민주당’으로 이어지는 강력한 3각 공조를 위해 ‘(가칭)민주시정 정책자문회의’ 신설을 추진 하고, 국정감사와 행정사무감사의 연중 협력체제를 구축한다.
④ '지방의회법 제정'과 ‘지방재정법 개정’ 추진
대한민국 지방자치 발전을 위한 실질적 혁신안도 내놓았다. '광역의회 대표의원협의회'에 혁신 TF팀 구성을 제안해 ▲1단계: 1의원 1지원관제 도입 ▲2단계: 지방의회법 제정을 통한 지방자치의 혁신 ▲3단계: 지방재정법 개정 을 통해 자치분권의 완성을 순차적으로 해 내겠다는 계획이다.
이상훈 대표의원은 "지난 8년간 쌓아온 풍부한 경험을 바탕으로 원내 정책 역량을 실질적으로 끌어올리겠다"며, "민주당 의원 한 분 한 분의 치열한 의정활동을 결집해 930만 서울시민의 안전과 행복을 확실하게 책임지겠다“고 포부를 밝혔다. hpf21@naver.com

Lee Sang-hoon “Inaugurated as Representative of the Democratic Party of Korea in the 12th Seoul Metropolitan Council”
Representative Lee: “I will block Oh Se-hoon’s path to the presidency and create a path for the people’s livelihood for the Democratic Party.”
Presented 4 major pledges for strengthening policy capabilities, supporting legislative activities, and innovating the local council.
Break News, Political Reporter Kim Choong-lyoul = Council Member Lee Sang-hoon (Gangbuk 2, 3rd term) has officially taken office as the representative of the Democratic Party of Korea for the first half of the 12th Seoul Metropolitan Council. The newly appointed Representative Lee Sang-hoon has been evaluated as the party’s top "policy and strategy expert," having served in various positions including the Senior Deputy Representative of the Democratic Party of Korea during the second half of the 10th City Council, the Senior Deputy Representative for Policy during the second half of the 11th City Council, and the Chairman of the 3rd Policy Committee.
Representative Lee stated, "The lives of Seoul citizens have become even more difficult over the past five years under the Oh Se-hoon administration," and expressed his extraordinary determination to shift Seoul from "Oh Se-hoon’s path to the presidency" to "the Democratic Party’s path for the people’s livelihood." He emphasized, “We know from experience that simply having a large number of seats does not solve all problems,” adding, “Together with 80 comrades, we will overwhelm the Oh Se-hoon administration with competence through thorough preparation and united ‘one-team’ political power.”
Representative Lee presented four key pledges and innovation tasks to realize this goal.
① Permanentization of the ‘Policy Coordination Meeting’ and ‘Policy General Assembly,’ and Establishment of a Control Tower to Check the Oh Se-hoon Administration
To check the Oh Se-hoon administration and produce policies for the people's livelihood, the ‘Policy Coordination Meeting,’ the ‘Policy General Assembly,’ and the ‘Together Seoul Forum’ will be regularized as official, permanent operating bodies. A dedicated support team will be established within the Representative’s office to ensure professional and stable operation.
② Introduction of a ‘One-Stop Legislative Activity Support System’
A ‘Specialized Planning Team for City Administration Questions’ will be operated to systematically assist with the entire process, from planning and content production to follow-up promotion. Additionally, a ‘Visiting Consulting Advisory Team’ will be operated to resolve local pending issues and citizen complaints. The plan is to further strengthen support capabilities for legislative activities by transferring the Policy Support Officer, currently affiliated with the Standing Committee, to the negotiating group.
③ Activation of a 'Triangular Cooperation System' involving the City Council, the National Assembly, and the Mayor of Seoul
To foster a strong triangular cooperation extending from the Democratic Party in the Seoul Metropolitan Council to the Seoul City Chapter of the Democratic Party of Korea and the Democratic Party in the National Assembly, the establishment of a '(tentative name) Democratic City Administration Policy Advisory Council' will be pursued, and a year-round cooperative system for state audits and administrative audits will be established.
④ Promotion of the 'Enactment of the Local Council Act' and the 'Amendment of the Local Finance Act'
Substantive innovation measures for the development of local autonomy in South Korea have also been put forward. By proposing the formation of an Innovation TF team to the 'Council of Representatives of Metropolitan Councils,' the plan is to sequentially achieve the completion of autonomous decentralization through: ▲Stage 1: Introduction of a 'One Council Member, One Support Officer' system; ▲Stage 2: Innovation of local autonomy through the enactment of the Local Council Act; and ▲Stage 3: Amendment of the Local Finance Act. Representative Lee Sang-hoon expressed his aspirations, stating, "Based on the extensive experience accumulated over the past eight years, I will substantially enhance our policy capabilities within the National Assembly," and added, "I will consolidate the intense legislative activities of every single Democratic Party lawmaker to firmly take responsibility for the safety and happiness of the 9.3 million citizens of Seoul." hpf21@naver.com
