Public Safety

The safety and well-being of our community is an extremely high priority for voters in the 44th District. This significant concern has risen from the severe uptick in violence which we have witnessed in Philadelphia, and which is pressing into our District communities.

Jessica will be an advocate for policies that keep our communities safe. She wholeheartedly supports the work of our law enforcement community. As President of Borough Council, Jessica works with her Council and Mayor to ensure that their police department and its officers have the training and resources they need to do their jobs and to keep the community safe from violence and crime. Additionally, she supports an expanded safety-net so that those suffering from a mental or substance abuse disorder can get the help they need.
