“Hakeem was elected to serve on the Chattanooga Public School Board in 1980, where he spent 10 years advocating for our city's public schools. He saw public education as the bedrock of the community. Chattanooga was still a segregated city, and the best way to escape this and the class system was through education. He worked to give young children born to his neighbors the opportunity for better, to chase and reach their dreams.”
(Campaign website) “Hakeem believes that too many working families in District 28 are struggling to get by, and he believes that it’s time to bring more living wage jobs to Tennessee and to Chattanooga. He believes we should have passed Insure TN and made sure that every Tennessean has access to healthcare they can afford.”
