ISSUES

  • Every individual in our community deserves access to secure and truly affordable housing. The surge in housing development in Washington, DC, has raised growing concerns about affordability. This issue threatens the ability of many long-standing and new residents to remain in their neighborhoods. I am steadfast in advocating for incoming developers to include affordable housing units and implementing measures to safeguard our current residents from displacement. It's crucial that every resident is a part of the growth and revitalization of our communities, and this starts with affordable housing.

    • Ensuring effective communication between agencies and residents, and connecting them to services to provide a pathway to secure housing.

    • I'm committed to advocate to ensure proper funding is available to fund housing support programs. 

  • Ensuring our residents' safety and peace of mind within their neighborhoods is not just a priority; it's my unwavering commitment. I am dedicated to fostering collaboration among law enforcement agencies, preventive services, and community-based organizations to craft robust solutions. These solutions will not only uphold accountability for individuals and agencies but also proactively mitigate crime and uphold the sanctity of community safety, but we must not stop there. We must ensure that our community provides effective and relevant opportunities to meet our neighbors' needs. To solve our public safety crisis, accountability and opportunity must intersect.
