Education for all As Your Legislator, I Will:
Universal Childcare
As your City Council member, I will advocate for working families and ensure every child in Aurora receives the best possible start. This is more than a jobs plan; it’s a vision for community prosperity. By investing in essential services, we will build a city where every resident has access to opportunities and a pathway forward. Let’s ensure Aurora works for everyone.
Justice must be a foundational principle, not an option. With your support, I will work to create a public safety system that prioritizes community voices and protects all residents with dignity and transparency..
