ECONOMY & JOBS The McGuire Comeback Plan is a visionary blueprint to revitalize and rebuild our city, kickstarting the most inclusive economic recovery in New York City history. Under Ray’s leadership, New York City will be the center of the global economy, a juggernaut of job creation, the best place in the world to start and run a small business, and a city that helps its people overcome current challenges so they can participate in a more equitable future. PUBLIC SAFETY & JUSTICE Everyone deserves to feel safe in their community — but right now, far too many New Yorkers live in fear of violence and criminal activity. And for too long, communities of color have lived with an additional fear: racist and overly aggressive policing. Ray McGuire’s record of leadership and his lived experience make him uniquely qualified to transform the city’s approach to public safety and implement a form of policing that is respectful, accountable and proportionate. EDUCATION Fewer than two out of every ten Black and Hispanic 4th graders are proficient in math and reading right now and those numbers only get worse by graduation. As mayor, Ray will invest in a cradle to career model that ensures every child receives enrichment so they can start school on a level playing field, parents have a choice of good schools in their neighborhood, and all graduates follow a clear pathway into college or a career. HOUSING New York City is the greatest city in the world — but not all New Yorkers share equally in its promise and prosperity. One in four New Yorkers are severely rent burdened, with half of their income going to rent payments. Ray has a comprehensive citywide plan to create affordable housing, in collaboration with each community, that creates jobs, respects neighborhoods, and protects residents from gentrification. QUALITY OF LIFE Even in the most difficult economic times, Ray understands that New Yorkers want the trash collected on time, the roads and sidewalks repaired, and parks that are clean and safe to play in. After years leading and managing large organizations, he knows that ultimately what’s important is delivering the goods — and that’s exactly what he’ll hold himself accountable to do as New York City’s mayor.[1] |
