Caring for District 41

Every neighborhood in District 41 should have access to parks, trees, and outdoor spaces. I will:

• Fight for funding to create new parks and green spaces in underserved areas

• Launch a community tree-planting initiative to reduce urban heat islands

• Transform vacant lots into community gardens and pocket parks

• Ensure our existing parks are well-maintained and safe for families

Making District 41 safe for all

Committed to cleaner, greener Baltimore.

Environmental justice

Environmental issues are justice issues. Communities of color and low-income neighborhoods have historically borne the brunt of pollution and environmental neglect.

Climate resilience

Climate change is already impacting Baltimore with increased flooding, extreme heat, and severe storms.

Clean air

Our families deserve to breathe clean air and drink safe water.
