  • Protect Short-Term Residential Rentals in Ocean Springs
    Short-term residential rentals have long provided high-quality accommodations to visitors, including our own visiting friends and family. These accommodations encourage visitors to stay, shop and dine in Ocean Springs, creating jobs in our city rather than in other cities. In addition, the sales and hotel taxes would be a significant revenue source for Ocean Springs.

  • Support the Voting Rights Amendment Act
    Last year, the Supreme Court struck down vital provisions of the Voting Rights Act of 1965. After taking a trip to Alabama to the scene of many of the protests that sparked the Act's passage, I was convinced that the Act needs to be restored to full strength in order to protect citizen's rights not just in the South but throughout the country if we are to be a nation proud of our liberties. Right now Congress can restore those provisions through the Voting Rights Amendment Act. Rep. Perry can support this effort by cosponsoring and fighting for a strong bill.

  • Voting Rights Act
    I still believe in the democratic process, the foundation of which stands on the ability of the people to vote. Having seen the roadblocks to open and fair registrations in many states has been heartbreaking. We have to restore this fundamental right to We the People!

  • Save our Historic Library
    We care about preserving historic buildings like the Carl Winters School. The proposed design for the Library Expansion significantly changes the exterior of this building, and thus should receive critical public input before being finalized for construction.

  • Support for the Voting Rights Act
    The Supreme Court and certain Republican legislators have already started to undermine the focus of the original Voting Rights Act, but, now the Republicans are up to their old tricks, again. THat is why as many Democrats as possible need to be included in the upcoming midterm elections, among other important representations, in an effort to eliminate as many Republican legislators as is legally possible, NOW!
