Fearless...
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, rejuvenating the neighborhood's homes, rebuilding the village infrastructure, or ensuring every household in his community has a Thanksgiving dinner, it's hard to match Trevor Elkins' passion for innovation, policy, or commitment to his residents.
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 "political players," and it is no surprise that 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, including trying to destroy his career and the livelihood of his family. He will not stop fighting for you!

"It's time Status Quo Politicians and Corporate Grifters Cease Being the Voice of Northeast Ohio..."
