“2. Protect our City from Donald Trump. This means: -MPD should not support ICE, whether it’s an Immigration raid or not. -Stand up against Trump’s attacks on healthcare and bodily autonomy. We deserve: A Mayor who won’t run from Trump, but will build the line of defense.”
(Ballotpedia Candidate Connection survey) “3. Diversify our City’s public safety response. This means: -We need to fund non-police programs like mental health responders, crisis teams, and youth programs: 47% of MPD calls don’t require an armed response. -Fix the broken systems and clear the backlog of unsolved police cases. We deserve: Care, not crackdowns. That’s true public safety.”
