To Our Friends and Neighbors Across the City of Springfield:

 

I am a lifelong Springfield resident, a graduate of our public schools & UMass Amherst, and the President of the Springfield City Council. I did not come from a big political family, or a family with a lot of money. I ran for City Council because I saw the difference that could be made in local government.

​

I am proud of the work we’ve accomplished together since then, and the commitments that I have kept to the people of Springfield - bringing people together to make local government work better, standing up to polluters, holding public utilities accountable, fighting to improve housing & infrastructure, and advocating for innovative public safety solutions. 

 

But to solve our city's greatest challenges, we must go further and do more.

​

With a fresh perspective, I believe we can build a local government that meets the needs of all our neighborhoods, lives up to our city’s history of innovation and progress, and prioritizes the quality of life of every resident.

​

That's why I am running for Mayor. I humbly ask for the opportunity to earn your vote.
