One of the things I hear the most from residents of the District is that the current state of our roads and streets leaves much to be desired. Whether you drive a car, bike, walk, or take transit, there is room for improvements and expanded access, and we must make these improvements with the climate crisis at the front of our minds. ​

 

We can change the tide on the climate crisis, all while making necessary improvements in our District. I'll work to:

 

• Invest in green infrastructure with green jobs initiatives to build the sustainable infrastructure of the future while providing healthy, fairly paid, union-represented jobs in the present. 

​

• Fulfill the state’s climate roadmap for net-zero emissions by 2050 by establishing a state-wide carbon tax, passing a government-mandated new building code, and researching further clean energy solutions such as solar farms and wind projects.

​

• Develop and sustain green public spaces so our families are provided with safe, comforting areas for our children to play in, all while absorbing the heightened carbon in our atmosphere.
