Justice 4 Housing

I’m incredibly grateful to receive the endorsement of the Massachusetts Green-Rainbow Party.

This campaign is bringing together people across Massachusetts who believe our communities deserve more than politics as usual, people who believe in affordability, dignity, sustainability, justice, and a government that puts everyday people first.

A safe and stable home is the foundation for successful reentry. When people have housing security, they can heal, reconnect with loved ones, and build brighter futures for themselves and their families.
