TRUST. INTEGRITY. RESULTS.
Protecting Taxpayers & Responsible Budgeting
Every dollar spent by the county should be transparent, justified, and tied to real community needs. Julia will push for clear, easy-to-understand budgets and prioritize essential services over wasteful or unnecessary spending.
Transparency & Open Government
Residents deserve to know how decisions are made and why. Julia will advocate for publicly accessible budgets, advance notice of proposals, and more opportunities for community input through town halls and open meetings.
Supporting Workers & Fair Labor Standards
Public investments should benefit local workers and strengthen the middle class. Julia supports Project Labor Agreements and Responsible Bidder Ordinances to ensure fair wages, safe working conditions, and accountable contractors on county projects.
Smart Growth & Responsible Development
Growth should improve quality of life, not strain infrastructure or increase costs. Julia will push for responsible planning, require developers to contribute to infrastructure, and ensure community input is part of major development decisions.
Utility Costs & Large-Scale Projects
Rising utility costs are a growing concern for families across Porter County. Julia will demand transparency and accountability in decisions related to projects like data centers, and ensure that any development does not shift financial burden onto residents.
Infrastructure, Public Safety & Essential Services
Strong communities depend on reliable infrastructure and well-funded emergency services. Julia will prioritize maintaining roads, water systems, and public safety resources while planning ahead to avoid costly failures and delays.
