Let's Build a Durham for Everyone
Durham's greatest strength is its people, but the status quo is leaving too many behind. Nate will fight to empower Durham's communities - workers, tenants, and neighbors - from the bottom up, build a walkable city, protect our environment, and prioritize people and small businesses over more corporate profits.
