Everyone deserves to feel safe.

I believe that every resident deserves to feel safe and secure in their homes and neighborhoods. I will advocate for resources to be invested in improving infrastructure and public spaces to make them safer and more accessible. 

Some specific ideas I would like to explore as your council member are:

• Incentivizing bar owners with reduced ABC licensing fees if they abide by the ABC's Late Night Safety Plan

• Working with the Louisville Youth Metro Council representative for District 8 to implement their gun violence reduction plan

• Creating spaces for neighbors, business owners, Office of Safe and Healthy Neighborhood representatives, law enforcaement and government officials to build community and devise solutions to the Highlands' safety issues

I want to reinvest in and reimagine public safety. For Louisville to be safe for everyone, we must prioritize investing our city's budget in: 

• Education

• Affordable housing

• Accessible mental health services and healthcare

• Treatment for addiction 

• Governmental transparency and policy that protects marginalized communities from harmful carceral practices

I will work every day to create this vision of our district and our city.
