Opinion: As mayor, I will end corruption, put Cincinnatians first
Gavi Begtrup
Cincinnati stands at a crossroads. We can return to the days of corrupt and broken government, or we can once again become the shining city of seven hills.
Our Queen City once led the country in culture, architecture, public transportation and even police reform. Today, Cincinnati is becoming too expensive for everyday residents. Rents and property values were already outpacing wages when the pandemic hit. Cincinnati’s families and small businesses have suffered while corruption at City Hall kept us from focusing on the real issues of systemic inequality brought about by centuries of racist policies.
