** Endorsement Alert: Higher Heights for America PAC
------------------------------------------------------------
In May 2018 Mayor LaToya Cantrell was the first Black woman to be sworn in as mayor of New Orleans. She did so with the support of the Higher Heights for America PAC, and they have now endorsed her candidacy for re-election.
Since its founding, the Higher Heights for America PAC has been dedicated to getting progressive Black women elected to federal, state, and local offices.
"Higher Heights support meant the world to me in 2017 when I ran to be the first Black woman to serve as mayor of New Orleans, and today their endorsement means just as much as I am seeking re-election," said Cantrell. "We have made so much progress for Black women throughout my first term like enrolling over 1,000 families in healthy start, increasing access to early childhood education, and mandating at least 35% Disadvantaged Business Enterprise (DBE) participation in city contracts. I know that the progress we make in my second term will further set New Orleans up for generations of success."
In her second term, Mayor Cantrell is committed to implementing innovative new programs designed to reduce crime, investing in more resilient infrastructure, combatting the legacy of exclusionary housing zoning policies, and investing more in our city's youth & families.
