I believe all people have the right to make their own choices about their bodies. We must fight back until the Dobbs decision is overturned and every woman and girl has their right to bodily autonomy restored. I am a proud ally in this fight and will work to make Nashville safe for our reproductive rights.
Keeping Nashville affordable is critical to its success. As Nashville grows, we must renew our focus on neighborhoods and ensure that long-time residents are not pushed out of our city. Increasing access to affordable housing will is a priority.
As part of the LGBTQIA+ community myself, I will always be a vocal leader for supporting the LGBTQIA+ community and doing all I can to ensure that Nashville continues to be a safe, welcoming place where ALL people can thrive.
A healthy neighborhood is a walkable neighborhood. A healthy city is a connected city. I will continue to support the many sidewalk, biking, and traffic-calming projects currently underway in our community and push for more. We have to see an expansion of public transportation in Nashville so that Nashvillians can efficiently and affordably commute to and from work, and enjoy our city.
As the son of a public school teacher, I understand firsthand the value and impact that teachers have on our children. The future of our city is in our children. Prioritizing investment in our education system with the resources and tools it needs to support our students, no matter where they live, is essential to creating a successful Nashville.
Representatives at the state level have repeatedly made attacks on our democracy, whether it’s by expelling members of the House or by trying to slash the council membership in half. I will always fight to protect your vote and stand up to efforts to erode the foundations of our democratic institutions.
Our community and Nashville as a whole is home to many beautiful parks and nature areas. I am a strong supporter of healthy green spaces that are accessible to all of our residents. I believe every person deserves to live no further than a 15-minute walk from a park or recreation area. We must protect green spaces, so our community can continue to enjoy them with our family, friends, and pets.
We should now focus on balancing the scale from mostly attracting business to downtown, to supporting, attracting, and incentivizing small businesses to grow in communities across southeast Nashville. As a small business owner, myself, I will be a strong ally to increase entrepreneurship across our community.
