Campaign Priorities
- Rebalancing decision-making power so residents most affected by a policy have a real voice in it, not just city staff
- Bringing police oversight and accountability into open, transparent discussion
- Rental housing options actually within reach for neighbors earning Boulder's minimum and tipped wages
- Closing gaps in assistance programs so losing eligibility doesn't become a cliff families fall off
- Affordable homebuyer programs built for today's Boulder residents
- Supporting fair wages and using zoning and policy to help everything from home-based businesses to commercial spaces succeed
- Updating zoning and policy so Boulder builds smarter and more resilient to fire, flood, and other climate risks, including a stronger urban tree canopy and water-wise landscaping
- Supporting the Core Arterial Network for safer streets, including for children and community members who are blind or use wheelchairs
