Equitable Job Creation

In Charlotte, every hard working resident deserves a shot at a good job and a brighter future. As your next mayor, I'm committed to creating opportunities for all Charlotteans, especially those without a college degree. My plan focuses on training, partnerships, and supporting local businesses to build a thriving economy where everyone can succeed.

Affordable Housing Solutions

Charlotte's growth has priced too many families out of our neighborhoods. While progress has been made, we need bolder action. I'll push for a $200 million housing bond to create 10,000 affordable units by 2030, reform zoning to allow more duplexes and triplexes, and partner with developers to prioritize low-income housing in thriving areas.

Public Safety Initiatives

Safety starts with trust between our communities and law enforcement. I'll expand community policing, fund mental health crisis teams, and invest in youth programs to prevent crime. Building on SAFE Charlotte, we'll ensure every neighborhood feels secure through proactive, equitable strategies.

Transit and Infrastructure

Charlotte's growth demands a transit system that serves every neighborhood. Delays in projects like the Red Line show we need fresh leadership. I'll create a citizen advisory board to prioritize transit projects, accelerate bus and light rail expansions, and ensure underserved communities have access to opportunity.

Reducing Childcare Costs

Skyrocketing childcare costs are burdening Charlotte families, with average costs exceeding $12,000 per year. I'll launch the Charlotte Childcare Access Plan, offering subsidies for low- and middle-income families, partnering with employers to provide on-site daycare, and expanding pre-K programs to ease the financial strain.
