Get Stuff Done. David On The Issues.
David believes Monroe County should be a place where people can thrive, not just survive. That starts with more housing choices, growing good jobs, expanding childcare, and changing the courthouse culture that hold us back. He always asks the hard questions and gets results.
David keeps the issues Monroe County cares about front-and-center. He brings a reformer’s mindset, a steady hand, and a focus on getting stuff done.
Change the courthouse culture to one that says yes more than no, is transparent, and customer-service oriented.
Cut the red tape and build good public–private partnerships that meet the triple bottom line: people, planet, and prosperity.
Protect civil rights and defend vulnerable neighbors as bigotry and targeted harm rise across the state.
Grow our workforce and local economy by attracting diverse employers and good-paying jobs.
Solve childcare options for our county workforce and support expansion of childcare in the county for all.
Expand housing choices—from affordable units to transitional options—so everyone can find stable housing.
Plan and build smarter, with zoning and development that both protects and shares what makes our county special for all.
Reform boards and commissions to reflect the whole community, broaden participation, and value citizen voices.
Solve the criminal-justice crisis with a system approach - restorative justice, constitutional jail, diversion programs, and lower recidivism.
Upgrade core infrastructure—roads, trails, transit, broadband—to keep our county connected and accessible.
Strengthen and expand public health to take on the harm-reduction work, meet substance-use challenges head-on, and co-operative community medicine to start closing the healthcare gap.
Address housing instability and homelessness, and bring new support for residents living in vehicles.
