Who We Are
The People’s Slate, born from the Movement for Black Lives in 2020, endorses candidates who support our vision for Rochester—a city where power belongs to the people and their needs guide decisions. With each election cycle, we strive to achieve this vision through building a City Council committed to housing justice, youth services, violence prevention, poverty eradication, and true public safety. Your support is crucial in our journey towards change. Join us in raising your voice and fighting for our community's needs.
