PROTECT IMMIGRANTS WHILE PROTECTING EVERYBODY

We have a moral obligation to protect all of our residents. On the City Council, Jason fought President Trump’s anti-immigration agenda and built trust between immigrants and our municipal government. 

• As District Attorney, Jason will work to maintain New Orleans as a “welcoming city” and protect the Fourth Amendment rights of all residents. Legal proceedings often affect immigration status, and consequently, relations between marginalized communities and law enforcement. Jason understands these complexities and will take those effects into account in making prosecutorial policies and decisions.
