Supporting Pride events is about standing in solidarity with the LGBTQIA+ community and recognizing the ongoing fight for equality, dignity, and safety. These events are more than celebrations. They are acts of visibility, resistance, and resilience. As a candidate committed to equity and inclusion, I believe our city thrives when every person feels seen, valued, and protected. Pride reminds us of the progress we have made and the work that remains. I am proud to support Pride and will continue advocating for policies that uplift and protect all members of our community.
