A brighter future for all of us

Ashley’s Priorities

  • Housing That Fits

    Ashley is tackling the housing crisis head-on because too many families are struggling to cover rent or buy a house. The only way to bring costs down is to build more housing. But it must fit our neighborhoods, preserve historic character and be forward-thinking. That means reforming outdated zoning laws, advocating for smart land use, and ensuring residents have a voice.

  • Support for Local Business

    A thriving economy starts with small businesses. Ashley has a track record of supporting local entrepreneurs. She will make sure our city values businesses created right here in Phoenix and provide the opportunities they need to hire employees, succeed, and grow.

  • Healthy, Connected Neighborhoods

    Neighborhoods are where we raise our kids, gather with friends and enjoy the outdoors. They should be safe from crime, be close to good parks and city services, and have shade and heat mitigation. Ashley’s leadership will benefit every neighborhood, guaranteeing a quality of life we can be proud of.

  • A City Hall That Listens

    Ashley believes the best solutions come when all voices are at the table — neighbors, business owners, nonprofits, city officials and community leaders. Ashley will listen to everyone, bringing people together to work toward shared goals and keep Phoenix competitive, resilient, and prepared for long-term growth.

Additional Priorities

  • Education is foundational to opportunity and belonging. While the city doesn’t run school districts, it can be a strong partner.

    I will strengthen partnerships with local districts, support creative land-use solutions that benefit educators and families, and advocate for arts and cultural investment that reflects the size and talent of our city.

    Libraries are not extras, they’re infrastructure.

  • We have to prevent displacement and respond with dignity when people are displaced.

    I support continued investment in rental assistance, shelter, and long-term stabilization strategies, paired with regional cooperation across Valley cities.

    Stability costs less than a crisis. Prevention is smart policy.

  • Phoenix is a city where many people drive and many rely on transit. Both realities matter.

    I support modernizing mobility systems and ensuring transportation investments are planned responsibly and distributed fairly.

    Major projects must account for neighborhood impact, small business disruption, and multilingual engagement. We can learn from the past and do better moving forward.

    Transportation should make daily life easier.

  • Public spaces are the soul of a city.

    District 4 includes some of Phoenix’s oldest neighborhoods. Reinvestment in aging infrastructure is essential to maintaining pride of place.

    I will advocate for safe, clean, and beautiful parks, expanded shade, strong maintenance, and public spaces that connect residents to one another and to city resources.

    Belonging starts with the places people gather.

  • Stewardship of public dollars is one of the most important responsibilities of a council member.

    I am committed to balanced budgets, long-term thinking, and ensuring investments match community needs as funding landscapes evolve.

    Phoenix must remain steady, strategic, and fiscally responsible.
