A Candidate For Us

Your health data online is as sensitive as your bank account. We need to reinforce privacy protections for our citizens.

The fossil fuel era is ending. Adapt now, or get left behind by the rest of the world.

Melting glaciers aren’t just bad news for locals, they create sea level risks for millions. Understand and prepare before it's too late.

Climate change isn’t waiting. Study the risks now and prepare our most vulernable citizens or pay dearly later.

Climate disasters aren’t “what ifs”—they’re “when.” Preparing for the worst is just realism.

Florida shouldn’t treat hurricanes like surprises. We need a plan that aknowledges that the risk of being hit and strength of storms is increasing.

For centuries, Indigenous communities have protected the land with wisdom and care. Giving Native leaders a formal role in reviewing city projects ensures we protect sacred spaces, respect the earth, and make decisions with sustainability, not just profit, in mind.

The Jacksonville area has the highest rates of poverty in Florida. The cost of living is also higher than the national average. This means that people are struggling to make ends meet and are not able to afford basic necessities like food, housing, and healthcare.
In order to address this issue, we need a $15 living wage for all workers in Jacksonville, Florida to enable individuals to prosper if they work one full-time job.

There are several reasons why businesses in Jax should consider supporting a local Living Wage. As we formalize the proposal, we will work with local business advocates to develop and communicate the value proposition so that we can influence changes within the private sector.

We didn’t solve housing by cutting vouchers since the 80s, we made it worse. Fund what works and house people.

Public transit shouldn’t be a last resort, it should be a backbone. Let's create public transit solutions that work for our communities.

If daycare costs more than college, something’s broken. Affordable childcare is good economic policy.

Rental companies like AH4R have monopolized the rental market. They use ever-increasing profits generated by increasing rents -and having bully tactics for ensuring payment- to compete with middle class families looking to buy homes. They make cash offers on properties to circumvent the normal process and beat out families and have insights into market trends since they require tenants to give advance notice about intentions to move. They punish families for attempting to move by increasing rental rates once the notice is provided. Meanwhile, they fail to provide representation in situations where the OWNER must represent the property including disputes with neighbors and HOA.

Rethink tolls and meters that punish those with the least.

Rent shouldn't increase faster than pay raises. Regulate hikes so people can actually stay in their homes.

Utilities belong to the people, not private investors.

Wages up, junk fees down, basics affordable. Make everyday life less of an obstacle course.

Banks creating money out of thin air was never innovation, and loaning it out without any reserves is irresponsible.

Banks shouldn’t gamble with your savings. Reinstate Glass-Steagall and end casino banking.

Corporations span borders—so should accountability. Register them properly so that they can be tracked accurately.
