Our Issues

As The People’s Champ, I have a proven track record of being the voice of the people on Charlotte City Council. I’ve consistently voted in favor of our communities — not special interests — and I hold everyone at the table accountable to the people we serve.
 

Now, I’m running for re-election to continue putting your priorities first and keeping leadership honest, transparent, and focused.

• Expand homeownership opportunities for working families
   
• Prioritize community voices in housing decisions
   

I’ve consistently voted with the people — because housing justice is community justice.
