| Collapse all
- I’m dedicated to supporting initiatives for equity and justice for all Louisville residents, and representing a demographic that is currently missing on the council.
- I believe in environmental justice. District 8 is already a leader in environmental sustainability but I will make sure that green living remains a top priority.
- Our city has an affordable housing crisis. I will work to remedy this by making sure our mayor's plan to build 15,000 affordable housing units are truly affordable, voting no on TIFs unless they include affordable housing, and prevent the destruction of currently existing affordable housing.
