Norah
Laughter
For Ward 1

Elect an Alder for student, community, and labor solidarity

Raised by public school employees in a small town in Kentucky, I saw how working people's lives were shaped by corporate powers taking more than they gave. In New Haven, I saw similar inequality due to segregated development Yale has helped create—and people organizing to fight back.

I’ve organized with Students Unite Now since 2022 to push Yale on race and class justice. That’s why I’m running for Alder: New Haven students and residents need to work together to win the funding our city needs for housing and schools.

"Why Should I Vote for Norah?"

Bottom line: I am already willing to fight for what we need to thrive - I'd love to expand that work at City Hall!
