Tonight, Randy and I were honored to join Colleen Ochoa Peters, Rudy Hobbs, Rochelle Black, and so many dedicated community partners at Lighthouse’s 10th Annual Rent Party at The Treasury in Pontiac.
Lighthouse’s work is personal to this community. From shelter and food access to housing stability and pathways out of poverty, they continue to stand in the gap for families who deserve dignity, support, and a real chance to move forward.
As a lawmaker who led this work through the Poverty and Homelessness Caucus, I know these issues are not abstract. They live in our neighborhoods, our families, and our communities right here in House District 53.

Thank you to Mary Riegle and the entire Lighthouse team for continuing this vital mission in Pontiac and beyond.onight, Randy and I were honored to join Colleen Ochoa Peters, Rudy Hobbs, Rochelle Black, and so many dedicated community partners at Lighthouse’s 10th Annual Rent Party at The Treasury in Pontiac.
