Whether introducing a student loan housing assistance program, the most robust family leave policy in America, a 32-hour work week, advocating for public transit, requiring an Associate's Degree for law enforcement, or ensuring every household in his community has a Thanksgiving dinner, it's hard to match Mayor Elkins' passion for innovation and policy.
Add his outspoken opposition to northeast Ohio's sweetheart stadium deals, insider political shenanigans, and the patronage culture that ignores the needs of the region's working people for the benefit of franchise owners, the corporate donor class, and a narrow spectrum of "players," and it is no surprise that at time's he's been a target of the status quo political leadership and corporate grifters of the region. This hasn't stopped him from speaking up and speaking out for you though, even when it has lead to fabricated personal attacks and the political enmity of a desperate old-guard clinging to power at all cost.
