Oliver L. Roy for DC

Lets Talk

With Oliver L. Roy, DC residents will have a champion who puts people before politics and is truly committed to uplifting the community. 

Safer Streets & Stronger Communities

Oliver will work to reduce crime by advocating for community-based violence intervention programs, youth mentorship initiatives, and stronger public safety measures that prioritize prevention over policing.

Affordable Housing & Homeownership Support

Oliver will fight for rent control protections, expanded homeownership opportunities, and stronger tenant rights to ensure families can stay in their homes without fear of displacement.

Better-Paying Jobs & Economic Opportunities

Through job training programs, small business support, and partnerships with employers, Oliver will bring more livable-wage jobs to DC residents.

Quality Education & School Investments

Oliver will push for more funding for DC schools, teacher support, after-school programs, and special education resources to ensure every child has access to a high-quality education.

Increased Mental Health & Substance Abuse Services

Recognizing the mental health crisis in Washington DC, Oliver will advocate for expanded mental health clinics, addiction recovery programs, and trauma-informed services to support families and individuals in need.

Stronger Support for Families & Children

As a longtime advocate for families, Oliver will expand family resource centers, parenting support programs, and childcare assistance services to help working families thrive.

More Affordable Groceries & Food Security

With food deserts limiting access to fresh and affordable food, Oliver will fight to bring more grocery stores, urban farms, and food assistance programs to DC neighborhoods.

Improved Public Transportation & Infrastructure

Oliver will work to ensure safer roads, improved bus and metro services, and better-maintained sidewalks and bike lanes to make transportation more reliable for DC residents.

Advocacy for Returning Citizens & Second Chances

Oliver will champion reentry programs, job training, and housing support for returning citizens, ensuring that they will have the tools to reintegrate successfully back into the community.
