Mayor Cantrell has a clear vision for what New Orleans needs from its City Council. We need to focus on what each individual councilperson brings to the table, to create our best team possible. That's why she's endorsing Jay Banks, Freddie King, and Troy Glover for the December 11th runoff. Each of these men is a proven leader who brings unique strengths to the table.
JAY H. BANKS (B) - Battle tested leadership who has delivered hundreds of millions for streets and drainage.
FREDDIE KING, III (C) - Proven to bring the community to the table and make sure the work reflects the people's priorities.
TROY GLOVER (D) - Brings fresh ideas to push the Council forward. Troy is the future of our city.
The time is now. What we do for the next 3 - 5 years emerging from the pandemic will affect New Orleanians for generations to come. And these three candidates know all too well the critical struggles faced by Black males nationwide right now -- high unemployment, discrimination, risk of system involvement, violence, and depression. Their leadership will bring the change we need.
