Priorities
Strong Public Schools for All
Education must be a priority. We need adequate funding for school construction, expansion of Pre-K, increase the per pupil expenditure to offset inflation and to give our teachers more autonomy to develop teaching methods suitable for all learning styles. We must also understand that the students that compose the school system are increasingly diverse and we must, therefore, implement programs that recognize that diversity and allows all students a fair opportunity to succeed. This will begin to close the problem of the “achievement gap” and other problems our schools are presently experiencing.
An Economy that works for Everyone in our Community
A livable minimum wage is just the beginning. These same working families need affordable housing. These same working families need improved access to affordable child care and after school care options.
Safe & Healthy Communities
Our communities are safe and healthy when our rights are protected, when the diversity of our community is valued and protected, when we feel safe in our community, when we protect our older neighbors and value their continued contribution to our community, when affordable healthcare is made available to all and when we protect our environment.
