The Issues

1. Creating Great Jobs for Great People
Job creation initiatives
Boston has a robust business community, a world-class workforce and venture capital community. We need to invest in our companies and our people by creating up-to-date, real-world jobs for today and tomorrow.

2. Making Housing Affordable
Affordable housing
Promote affordable housing education and loan programs such as MAHA (Massachusetts Affordable Housing Alliance). Convert foreclosed properties into affordable housing. Offer landlords incentives to negotiate long-term leases with stable tenants.

3. Providing First Class Public Education
We must better prepare our young people to compete in the increasingly-global economy with initiatives such as a mentoring program pairing public school students with working professionals.

4. Securing Safe, Clean Neighborhoods
Secure funding for summer youth violence prevention programs based on Boston Police Department data for violent ‘hot spots. Promote year-around job training programs for youth and recruit businesses to participate.

5. Building Partnerships that include YOU
The Boston City Council and city government should be an open book to the residents of Boston. City Councillors should promote civic engagement by informing voters of their Council responsibilities and how residents can have input into this process.
