priorities
education
Every child deserves a quality education. We know what works. Our schools need funding. The current finance formula for per-pupil funding is outdated. Essence will work with lawmakers to change the formula. With a modern funding model in place, we can fight for competitive pay for teachers, smaller class size, vocational training programs, special education services and professional development. Our schools will have the resources to improve educational outcomes for all of our kids.
economic development
When we invest in education and job training, we have graduates who come back to partake in our community. Essence will advocate for training, certification and apprenticeships to help residents prepare for highly-skilled, well-paying jobs in the workforce. We need vocational training programs put back into our schools - programs like welding, plumbing and electrical engineering. This investment in workers is a win-win situation, as companies benefit when they employ highly-skilled members of the community.
health care
Essence will fight and advocate for affordable healthcare options, coverage for preventive services, provider choice and the expansion of Medicaid. Healthcare should not be wealth care. Everyone needs access to quality health services, no matter their ability to pay.​​​
