Over the last month, we've invited candidates for the state legislature and beyond to join the Mayor in her effort to secure our #fairshare.
These are the candidates pledged to fight for our #fairshare
We’re proud to see how many candidates are prepared to stand with Mayor LaToya Cantrell and fight for our fair share of resources in Baton Rouge. These candidates know that excuses like “this isn’t the right time” or “this doesn’t go far enough” don’t help New Orleans: we need action, hard work, and results. This election is a crucial part of the longer fair share journey ([link removed]) , and we need a united team in Baton Rouge of legislators ready to work together and continue the fight for our city.
We’re supporting a range of ballot initiatives to improve the quality of life in our city and deliver residents their fair share of opportunity, starting with Constitutional Amendment #4 ([link removed]) to encourage affordable housing, on the October 12th ballot. In November, we’ll have four more initiatives to pass: to combat discrimination, to maintain our infrastructure, to give the city permission to sell bonds, and to tax short-term rentals the same as hotels. Help us in this effort by signing up to volunteer. ([link removed])
