The broken system said change was impossible.

JP assured us, “We got this.”

As a life-long Democrat representing New Orleans in a divided state legislature, the odds were against JP and his reform agenda. With determination and collaboration, he overcame obstacles to achieve the impossible…

For JP, it’s personal.

Ask anyone who knows JP, and the first thing they’ll tell you about him is what a dedicated dad he is. JP’s spouse, Catherine, is a pediatric oncology nurse working the night shift. JP’s leading role in his kids’ lives is nothing new. His work outside the home is just as active – as an attorney, activist, community leader (and part-time podcaster).

He’s running for Council At-Large because he believes every family should have the opportunity - the choice - to live in this city we love. JP wants his family to live in New Orleans for generations, and he knows everyone deserves the right to know what it means to love New Orleans.

About JP

Some talk the talk. JP walks the walk.

He’ll continue to fight the battles shoulder-to-shoulder with the people of New Orleans - for all of us.

He ended racist policies
He kept kids out of jail
He protected victims of sexual assault and domestic violence
He protected the credits and incentives that fund our cultural economy
He fought for funding to build parks and playgrounds
He led the fight to pass the Equal Rights Amendment and Pay Equality
He paved the way to end the Pink Tax
He made medical marijuana legal
He fought Short Term Rentals to protect residential neighborhoods

JP’s list of accomplishments is long, but his ‘to do’ list is much, much longer – and he won’t stop until it’s done.

As City Councilmember, JP is going to champion policies to change the system – so it reflects our values and serves our people. And given his record of success, we know he’ll get it done for us.
