The true strength of Aurora is its incredible diversity, and it is time for the city to have leadership that represents everyone. Omar Montgomery has spent his entire life building bridges and ensuring that every community has a voice. As a dedicated champion for equity, he doesn't just talk about inclusion—he has spent decades doing the hard work on the ground to deliver real representation for communities of color. I am proud to stand with Omar because I know he will lead with heart and ensure that every single family, from every neighborhood and background, has a powerful voice and a seat at the table in Aurora's City Hall."

Omar Montgomery is the leader Aurora needs. He deeply understands the challenges working families and everyday people face, and he will bring that direct perspective to the table as Aurora's Mayor. In this difficult political landscape, we need leaders with the true strength and resilience to respond to the massive budget cuts and policies coming from Trump and federal Republicans—harmful decisions that are actively hurting access to education, health care, food, and housing. As an advocate for working families during these hard times, I know Omar Montgomery will be an invaluable partner in fighting for all of us.
