Manchester Deserves a Committed Leader

 

“Manchester is my home. I love this city and I’m here to stay.
Our community deserves a leader who is committed to the city’s future success.”

A platform for all—working families, seniors, kids, and our community’s most vulnerable

As Mayor, Jess will focus on stabilizing housing for young families looking to buy, and for fixed-income seniors trying to stay put. She’ll also work to shift the focus from expensive “unaffordable housing” to actual affordable housing.

Lift Up Our People

  • Housing for young families and professionals that’s actually affordable. 

  • Tax relief for seniors that lets them remain in their homes and age in place. 

  • Sustainable, long-term plan for our most vulnerable community members to address homelessness and addiction.

Fully Fund Our Schools

Future School Environment

  • Highly-qualified, fully supported educators who create caring and engaging environments.

  • Healthy, well-rounded students who reach their full potential and achieve their dreams. 

  • Investing in the next generation of changemakers and leaders.

Invest in Our Infrastructure

Drawing of proposed street scape

  • Fully-funded infrastructure—paved streets, accessible sidewalks, multi-modal transit, and connected neighborhoods. 

  • Fully-staffed vital city departments, including Police, Fire, Public Works (streets, parks, trash). 

  • Affordable energy options that lower the cost of utilities.

  • "I think Jess is eminently qualified to be mayor—more so than the current person in the office. She has a master’s degree in social work with a concentration in child and family welfare. She’s worked with homeless veterans, in community mental health, at the Manchester public defender and now with the state as a SNAP program specialist."

    Leslie Want, School Board, Ward 4

  • Jess is proudly endorsed by the Manchester Education Association

  • "Manchester needs a leader who has seen and heard our communities' struggles firsthand and who is committed to building a city where the next generation of Granite Staters can thrive."

    David Preece, Representative NH State House

  • "In 2025, nearly 100,000 local elections are on the ballot. Every one is a chance to protect our rights, pass policies that actually make life better, and prove that progress is possible."

    Run for Something

  • "I support Jess, because we don't need to slash schools budgets we need to improve them."

    Joshua Lewis, MSD Student
