Her primary passions are criminal and juvenile justice reform, affordable housing and healthcare, including mental health.
“With the growing number of young people and immigrants moving into the Northeast we need additional funding, programs and resources for small businesses, affordable housing and affordable healthcare… District 9 needs a Senator that can continue the legacy of service and commitment to its citizens. We need someone experienced enough to be effective across party lines and engaging enough to bring results back to Jackson County. I am that person.”

Derron Black
Derron Black (D): plans to fight for workforce development, public safety, Medicaid expansion and implementing sustainable solutions.
