Get StartedWith reckless driving rampant, crime appearing more present than before, and a far-right President who is bent on attacking marginalized communities, Milwaukeeans want the city they call home to feel secure. We need to make this city safer for everyone by getting to the root causes of these problems. That means eliminating poverty, tackling systemic oppression, improving city infrastructure, increasing public and affordable housing, improving mass transit, welcoming immigrant communities, and supporting those who are marginalized.

Public schools in this city have been under attack for decades. As a member of the Common Council, I will take action to cease the City of Milwaukee’s chartering of schools, and I will publicly and procedurally fight any attempt to eliminate the democratically elected school board of the City of Milwaukee, including a city, state or mayoral takeover. While MPS needs accountability and reform, Milwaukeeans are united by our public schools and I will oppose breaking up the district in any fashion. Learn more
We need public ownership of public utilities, and to remove the profit motive from basic necessities. As a member of the Common Council, I will work to replace We Energies with a municipal or cooperative utility using Chapter 197 of the Wisconsin State Statutes. Our bills should pay for maintaining our energy infrastructure rather than dividends to shareholders. Learn more
There is a severe housing affordability crisis in Milwaukee, and it affects all the city’s working class residents. People cannot live fulfilling lives under the constant fear of losing their homes, through eviction or inability to pay. As a member of the Common Council, I will publicly advocate for the building of affordable, safe, and dignified public housing, hold the city Housing Authority accountable, and will always stand up to landlords and support tenants in any housing issue brought before the city.

I’ve fought for workers as a union organizer for years. When I was the president of the substitute teacher’s union, I won healthcare benefits for substitute teachers by going on a 21-day hunger strike. The workers who make our city function deserve these same rights, and I will ensure that they are never overlooked and always receive a fair deal from any legislation, budget, or policy. As your alderperson, I will defend city workers’ rights to living wages, quality benefits, labor protections, and a great work environment. Learn more
