Issues

Our Vision:

Our platform champions key issues to build a more inclusive, equitable, and thriving community. Here’s what we’re focused on:

• Youth Empowerment & Opportunities: We believe that investing in our youth is investing in our future. Our vision includes establishing programs that offer mentorship, career guidance, and positive recreational activities for young people. By providing safe, supportive environments, we aim to equip our youth with the skills and confidence they need to succeed.

• Affordable Housing & Homelessness Prevention: Safe, affordable housing should be a right, not a privilege. We advocate for policies that increase access to affordable housing, prevent homelessness, and support individuals and families struggling with housing instability. We’re also committed to partnering with organizations that provide resources for individuals at risk of losing their homes.

• Accessible Healthcare & Mental Health Services: Health and well-being are essential to a thriving community. Our platform supports expanding access to affordable healthcare, including mental health services, for everyone. We also advocate for increased funding for addiction recovery programs and resources for individuals facing mental health challenges, recognizing that comprehensive care is key to a healthier society.

• Environmental Sustainability & Clean Energy: Protecting our environment is crucial for future generations. We support initiatives that reduce pollution, promote renewable energy sources, and encourage sustainable practices in our community. From clean water and air to green spaces, our platform is committed to environmental stewardship and ensuring a healthy planet for all.

• Social Equity & Inclusion: True progress means uplifting every individual, regardless of race, gender, economic status, or background. Our platform is committed to advocating for social equity in all areas, including education, employment, and housing. We strive for a community where everyone has equal access to opportunities and the support they need to succeed.

• Economic Development & Job Training: Building a strong local economy is essential for a prosperous community. We support job training programs, particularly for industries with high growth potential, and initiatives that attract new businesses to the area. Our vision includes creating pathways to employment for residents, especially those who face barriers due to lack of skills, past incarceration, or economic disadvantage.

• Public Safety & Criminal Justice Reform: We believe in a justice system that is fair, transparent, and focused on rehabilitation. Our platform supports criminal justice reform measures that prioritize community-based policing, address racial disparities, and promote alternatives to incarceration. We advocate for programs that assist individuals in reintegrating into society, reduce recidivism, and support restorative justice initiatives.

• Broadband Access & Digital Equity: In today’s digital age, internet access is essential for education, work, and daily life. Many rural and underserved communities lack reliable broadband, leaving them disconnected from vital resources. We’re committed to advocating for broadband expansion to ensure that every resident has equal access to online opportunities, from remote learning to telehealth.

• Senior Services & Support: Our seniors deserve respect, support, and resources to age with dignity. We’re focused on expanding services that cater to the needs of our elderly population, including healthcare, accessible housing, and community engagement programs. Our vision is to create a community where seniors feel valued and connected.

• Cultural Programs & Community Engagement: A vibrant community celebrates its diversity and encourages cultural expression. We support programs that promote the arts, cultural heritage, and community festivals that bring people together. By fostering spaces for cultural exchange and community building, we strengthen our bonds and celebrate the richness of our shared experience.
