We are advocating for a People’s Budget in Baltimore: a more democratic process that would bring Baltimore residents into the process of deciding how the city allocates its resources. We demand greater insight into our city’s budget and policy-setting processes, because legislators are accountable to their constituents above all!
At the heart of our work is people power. By organizing, empowering, and mobilizing individuals, we ensure that every voice is heard. Together, we can create a city that works for everyone. We are fighting for a Baltimore where justice, fairness, and equity are prioritized, and where all people have the power to shape their own destinies.
Values
Baltimore City must provide affordable housing and collective care, and chart a path for self-determination in its most marginalized communities. Community wealth building is a tool Baltimore can use to create housing and business models that are locally rooted and collectively owned.
