At the heart of my vision for Gonzales is the creation of full-time career opportunities that allow our young people to build their lives and careers right here at home. We need to focus on attracting the right kinds of jobs—those that provide stability, growth, and the chance to thrive. I imagine a future where Gonzales becomes a hub for industries like healthcare, turning developments like Edenborne into a thriving medical corridor. This would provide not only local healthcare services but also training and education opportunities that keep our residents working and growing without leaving the community.
We also have a unique opportunity to leverage the planned passenger rail service between Baton Rouge and New Orleans, which includes a stop in Gonzales. This will expand horizons for our residents, offering connections to larger cities while allowing them to live in Gonzales. With strategic planning, we can build a city where families and businesses prosper, where young people see a future for themselves, and where everyone has the opportunity to thrive.
