Campaign themes

2016

Peoples' campaign website highlighted the following issues:[1]

Keeping our community safe

“ As a member of the Community Advisory Board for Law Enforcement (CABLE), an independent group that advises Sheriff Clayton, I have heard directly from residents regarding their concerns about safety. He believes that the Washtenaw County Sheriff's Department has worked hard with local law enforcement agencies to reduce crime and improve the image of our District, but we need to do more to stem the rise of violent crime in our community.[2] ”

Rebuilding and sustaining our public schools

“ Peoples believes the State of Michigan continues to face very difficult challenges that directly impact the residents of our community. He says, "public school funding is a major concern for our residents because it impacts how ready our students will be to meet the challenges of the 21st century, the value of our homes, and the ability to attract new businesses to our community."[2] ”

Getting things done for the 54th District and the residents of Michigan

“ For too long, we have seen extreme partisanship stall and stop progress in Lansing and inflict harm on the people of Ypsilanti. We need an individual in Lansing who has a proven record of working across lines to resolve issues and provide solutions that will benefit all Michigan residents but specifically those who live in the 54th District. Peoples, a certified state mediator, believes his skills as a mediator will help him work effectively with his Republican colleagues.[2] ”
