I’m building my campaign staff now so that I can hit the ground moving when I return home this coming week. I will be living in the Sunnyside area and am really excited to meet all of the people who’ve already volunteered to help with the campaign.
Here is my agenda, which I believe is supported by my opponent, though I certainly don’t speak for him: There is a need for living-wage jobs and creating income for the municipalities within the District such that we bring the economies out of the red and into the black.
That’s really all there is. I have no intention of going after the people that I believe are responsible for the lack of jobs but simply put, I intend to move ahead in a positive way and get people discussing solutions to create good jobs for the people of the District.
With good jobs and a solid tax base we can care for our seniors and veterans, we can build safer roads, put more police, fire and ambulances on the street, we can better fund our schools and libraries and in so doing not only create jobs but create a stronger community.
