What matters:
Jacksonville matters.
Belloit’s platform focuses on accountability, public transit, betterment of Jacksonville, preserving the ecology and the economy, and policing reform
Belloit started in direct action and community mutual aid, and will act like it.
Jacksonville is a collection of little cities gathered into one big one — that’s why it’s consolidated. This means Jacksonville has both small-town problems and big-city issues.
Jacksonville is the city with the largest land mass in all of the USA, and our public transit is near-useless.
The city council does not respond to the wishes of the citizens.
JSO is asked to both stop crime and respond to mental health and code violations, which they are not usually trained for.
The Neighborhood Bill of Rights is toothless and allows developers to roll over the working people.
Rent is unaffordable, and most of Jacksonvillians have to pay more in rent than they would a mortgage.
Citizens are treated unequally based on their race, neighborhood, or class by the systems in place.
Who needs help?
Here’s the people that our campaign believes needs help the most:
The working-class families
The homeless population
The people working 40+ hour weeks
The young people coming up in a suburban metropolis
and You.
Jacksonville Deserves Better
It’s time we acted like it.
