Dear Neighbor,
Mount Vernon has been my home for over 30 years. I’ve raised my family here, made friends here, and run a business here. There’s no place I’d rather call home. There’s no place I want to see succeed more.
As City Council President, I have consistently served as the people’s voice against corruption and waste. I always vote against irresponsible developments (PILOTs) that are robbing the citizens of Mount Vernon of much needed tax revenue.
I have bold and specific plans to make city government more responsive to the people. When I am mayor, my administration will establish an environment conducive to economic opportunity while improving quality of life for all Mount Vernon residents.
As mayor, my top priorities will be job creation, economic development, keeping taxes low and homes affordable, fixing our streets, repairing our parks, improving city services, and restoring both our crumbling infrastructure and our reputation.
I hope to earn your vote in the Democratic Primary Election on Tuesday, June 25, 2019.
This is not the time for cheap politics or unrealistic campaign promises. This is the moment when we decide together what kind of city we want to be.
In these uncertain times, it’s important to be there for each other. I have always stood ready to help the City that gave me so much. Let’s keep building together!
It’s our city. It’s our time.
Join the movement for a better Mount Vernon. The primary is less than 2 months away, and our campaign needs your help to get our message out there. Can you contribute $25 now? Any amount helps, and every dollar go towards helping us build a strong and focused campaign.
Thank you for your help, and I look forward to meeting you on the campaign trail!
Respectfully Yours,
André Wallace
