Leslie

 Democrat for City Council District 3

We need a strong, brave voice at City Hall fighting for us - especially on affordability, universal child care, LGBTQ rights and everyday living, which affects all of us.

Why I Am Running

With a proven track record of delivering results, I will pass legislation that makes living in our district cleaner, safer and more just, prioritizing a healthier public transit system, affordable living, a greener environment and creating a community where we feel safe.
I will fight special interests and put resident voices first.
I love my community and believe we can do great things together!

She understands how City Hall works and how to make it work better for the people it serves. I am proud to endorse Leslie and confident she will be a strong, effective voice for District 3 on the City Council.”
