What others are saying about Laura
Values
Equitable Schools
I want to continue to advocate, along with the CMS School board and leadership, for safe, equitable schools with uniform access to school materials, career programs, arts programs, counselors, teaching assistants, and advanced placement classes.
Housing
I want to continue to work hand-in-hand with Charlotte city officials, developers, and civic leaders to find a solution to our housing problem. In addition, I want to make sure people aren’t forced out of their homes and that homeownership is a dream everyone can attain.
Parks and Recreation
I am committed to advocating for more green space in Mecklenburg County. I promise to work with Park and Recreation leaders to expand our green spaces and revitalize parks that have been neglected for far too long.
Mental Health
Mental health is just as important as physical health. Children everywhere need great access to counselors. Plus, all programs and resources in the mental health system should be readily available to everyone, regardless of income level.
Safe Neighborhoods
I am committed to working with our local and state leaders to develop a plan to address the alarming problem of youth violence in our community. It is imperative that our children always feel safe and secure in their schools and neighborhoods.
