I’d like to thank everyone for the overwhelming support I’ve received since announcing my candidacy.
Highlights of what we’ve accomplished in March and April
I am so proud to have joined the hundreds of thousands of women at the Women’s March in Washington, DC...Walking the streets of DC with engaged women, educated on issues and causes that they care about was so invigorating. I want this feeling for everyone - engagement can and should start at the local level...
I want to make sure that my time on the Council is spent thoughtfully and intentionally, and that my term ends with goals accomplished. To that end, I have put together a list of goals for my first term.
During my campaign for one of the four at-large City Council seats in Newport, many residents told me how they felt their government wasn’t listening to them. For many, one of the least transparent aspects of our city government is the election of the Chair of the Council by the other members.
