I'm Lucas King-Cochran — a student and service worker running for our City Council because Ward 1 deserves a voice for the working-class.
Corporate interests have raised our rent, raised our taxes, and lowered our quality of life. The streets of our historic neighborhoods are crumbling while we're told luxury apartments and hotels are the solution to our housing crisis. I refuse to accept that. My campaign is a grassroots movement — no corporate money, no establishment backing, just the strength of our community.
Public housing. Local food assistance. Renewable public power. I will lower the cost of living in Ward 1.
