I am running because…
Our county has a $1.6 billion dollar budget yet it is hard to know where all the money goes. Homelessness is increasing in our communities, costs continue to rise and families are getting sick from their housing. All while Onondaga County spends over $86 million of taxpayer dollars on an aquarium. We need to change the county’s priorities, take care of our residents and increase transparency in our county government.
Our communities need a strong advocate that will invest in residents by providing affordable housing, expanding mental health services, improving infrastructure, reducing poverty and funding services that support families.
Together, we can work towards a better Onondaga County!
