You need a representative that will support your ideas, fight for the needs of your community and earn your respect. For someone who truly cares for your community, look no further.
I support transparency in government, diversity of ideas, and unity in the community. I also support responsible spending, freezing of our property taxes, which are consistently rising. Our community needs space for businesses and owner occupied properties, not more apartment complexes and rental trailers.
Furthermore, I support public safety. As a prosecutor for Saint Paul in the crimes against persons and domestic violence division, I know safety is a top priority for what makes a city great. I recognize there is still mending to be done between police and marginalized and minority communities. I strongly encourage dialogue around these issues, and as a person who has experienced racism, but works in law enforcement, I have a unique perspective in bringing these groups together so we can learn from one and other and be better.
Finally, our community will benefit from more engagement opportunities, from gatherings to youth and adult activities and sports leagues. You the community members are what make living in Saint Anthony great!
