Support for Business Growth and Job Creation:
I will champion tax credits for businesses that hire veterans, invest in workforce development, and reinvest in our local economy. My focus is on building a strong economy that benefits everyone in our district, with a special emphasis on job readiness programs to address homelessness and support families.
Education and Youth Development:
I believe education is the cornerstone of our community. I’m committed to supporting teachers and expanding educational opportunities to ensure that our youth have the resources they need to succeed and thrive, from early childhood through high school.Community Safety and Well-being: Addressing youth gun violence and mental health is critical for the safety of our community. I will work to improve conditions for working-class families, seniors, and retired military, ensuring that everyone in District 7 feels safe, supported, and empowered.
Economic Development and Business Support:
I strongly advocate for pro-business policies, including tax credits for businesses that hire veterans, invest in research and development, and promote job creation. I'm passionate about programs like the Economic Equity Fund, VB Thrive, and SWaM that help small and minority-owned businesses grow and succeed.
