Shayla Adams-Stafford is running for County Council District 5 to bring progressive, results-driven leadership to Prince George’s County. As a Democrat and lifelong advocate for equity, Shayla is committed to building a community where every resident has the opportunity to thrive. Her platform focuses on:
✔️Reducing the property tax burden for seniors so that those who have spent their lives contributing to our community can age with dignity.
✔️Creating high-wage careers by investing in skills training and partnering with unions to prepare our workforce for the industries of the future.
✔️Pursuing community-based development that prioritizes local businesses, affordable housing, and projects that reflect the values and voices of our neighborhoods—not the demands of outside developers.
✔️ Providing Stellar Constituent Services so that every resident of District 5 deserves timely, accessible, and effective support from their local government.
✔️ Protecting our environment, creating a litter-free community and enforcing the Climate Change Action Plan to ensure a better world for future generations.
