BIG NEWS: I'm running for Cincy City Council! Everyone deserves to feel safe in our community & that means having access to housing, livable wages & the resources needed to grow & thrive. I’m running for City Council to pass people-first policy. Join me: !
Hey pro-choice Catholics in Cincinnati: No matter how much the Archdiocese of Cincinnati spends against abortion rights (a whopping $1M and counting btw), pro-choice Catholics are the majority. You are not alone.

Note: Homicides are still trending higher than before the pandemic, when homicides and shootings spiked nationwide.
Cincinnati had two straight years of record-high homicides (94) in 2020 and 2021. So far in 2022, homicides are up about 26% compared to 2019.

Four years ago today—just one day after the El Paso mass shooting and one day before the seven-year mark of the Oak Creek mass shooting—nine people were killed and 17 others were wounded when a gunman opened fire in the Oregon Historic District of downtown Dayton, Ohio.
Yesterday, I had the privilege to give the entire Albi clan a tour of City Hall. First time in years my two brothers & I plus our families have been all together at Christmas & I showed them my exciting new job ☺️
