Common questions
Dominique's 3 priorities for District 6 are: (1) Keeping You In Your Home—housing stability for every family, (2) Food On Every Table—no family should go without fresh groceries, and (3) Getting You Back To Work—good jobs and real pathways. These priorities are interconnected: housing stability helps kids stay in school, food access improves health, and economic stability supports families.
Keeping You In Your Home means housing stability for every District 6 family. This includes expanding tax lien redemption, interest rate buy-down initiatives, and accountable development that does not add housing or utility costs. We prioritize preservation over displacement, proactive rent enforcement, and preventing families from being pushed out of their neighborhoods.
Pathway to Purchase provides up to $50,000 in downpayment assistance with guardrails to ensure program effectiveness. This helps families build generational wealth through homeownership, creating pathways to long-term financial stability as part of the Keeping You In Your Home priority.
As part of Food On Every Table: incentives to retain grocers in underserved areas, farmers markets in food deserts, and community partnerships. Every neighborhood deserves access to fresh, affordable groceries. No family should go without.
Getting You Back To Work: Back to Work PG tackles long-term unemployment with wage subsidies, procurement preferences, and training reimbursements—all with living-wage and retention guardrails. It includes quarterly PG Career & Collaboration Series (hiring halls, business matchmaking, childcare, transportation) and requires County contractors to interview and report hiring of long-term unemployed residents.
As part of Getting You Back To Work: local hiring preferences for County contractors, job training programs, small business support, and youth employment pathways. Dominique believes in good jobs and real pathways for District 6.
Accountable development ensures growth serves communities—not just profits. No added housing or utility costs. Community benefits like jobs, services, and green space. This includes requiring data centers to have buffers and community benefits, and ensuring redevelopment plans like Six Flags deliver for residents.
Everything connects when we plan together: Housing stability helps kids stay in school and creates safer blocks. Food access improves health and housing stability. Economic stability through employment supports families and all priorities. Accountable development ensures community benefits and prevents displacement. Local government—County Council—is where these decisions get made.
