Election 20XX City Leadership Assembly is your opportunity as a resident to work with candidates for City Council to prioritize issues.

Far too often the issues that matter most to Black families and residents are a low priority for elected officials and thus rarely centered in policy or funding. People's Assemblies are designed to create a co-governance relationship between residents and elected leadership. All City Council Candidates are invited to join residents of Lansing in prioritizing the issues that impact our lives.

If you are planning on attending this event, MAKE SURE TO REGISTER HERE: https://tinyurl.com/y3knxho2

Back from hiatus for the summer. Stay tuned to our Facebook page for updates.

We are facing a crisis in the United States. Children are dying, not being given the basics of bathing, general hygiene and are traumatized. This is horrific, un-American, and morally wrong, and it is being done by our own federal government.

A coalition of organizations, people and friends are planning a major protest rally regarding the atrocities happening at our Southern board. We must stand up and be the voice of the voiceless and we must express our disgust collectively.

Progressive Democrat, endorsed by Planned Parenthood Advocates of Michigan, Prosecutor Carol Siemon, Commissioner Mark Grebner (D) and Jessica Yorko (Lansing City Councilmember 2010 - 2017)
