Campaign themes

2016

Adrien's campaign website highlighted the following issues:

“

Education & Youth Programs

  • We can provide hope to our youth through education and youth programs. With the strong foundation, education and youth programs, such as Teen Empowerment, combined with leadership gave me the opportunity to witness and participate in array of life changing and shaping experiences. We need to push for high educational standards in the classrooms and schools. I will be committed to ensuring that every child receives a quality education and has the opportunity to pursue a college degree. We need to ensure that our schools are equipped to meet the needs of every student. It will, also, be my duty to fight for more funding for after-school and summer programs.

Fighting for Individuals & Families

  • I understand the challenges faced by working and low-income individuals and families. I am committed to making sure everyone has a better quality of life. At the State House, I will continue the fight to raise the minimum wage, affordable housing and better transportations options.

Economic Development

  • As a citizen, I have witness the economic woes, and how it influences crime and the veracity of anxiety on safety for its residence! I will strive to create more well paying jobs for residents of Everett. Actively pursuing policies and consistently reaching out to entrepreneurs and businesses owners to encourage the establishment and growth, which will bring more jobs to the community. It is part of my mission to work to ensure that the serves the needs of District residents as they search for employment as well as job training and career development programs.

Crime & Public Safety

  • I will work in Everett and with members of the community to address the drug and crime issues that have plagued the District for the past few years and threaten the safety and quality of life of its residents. It is my goal to ensure that there are enough highly trained law enforcement personnel that are in touch with the needs of the District neighborhoods and also that there are well funded after school programs to keep youth off the streets with positive and enriching alternatives to drugs, gang membership, and crime. I understand that we must take a careful approach to criminal justice with greater emphasis placed on rehabilitation for minor drug possession offenses both in order to reduce the number of repeat offenders and to assist these individuals in becoming productive, contributing members of our community.

Protecting & Honoring Senior Citizens

  • I understand the magnitude and value of ensuring the well-being of Senior Citizens! I am well aware that seniors in this district often face difficult financial decisions after they reach the age of retirement. Working to protect and fighting for quality health care, prescription drug coverage, services and housing for the elderly, I am committed to making sure that seniors have the financial and medical resources to enjoy their golden years. The government cannot allow the pain and suffering of America's elderly and uninsured to continue, and I am going to fight to eliminate pain and suffering by our senior citizens.[5]
