“I am honored to be endorsed by Hindus for Human Rights Action in my race for Plainfield City Council Ward 1. I’m a first-generation South Indian and was raised Hindu. I’ve seen how fascism thrives by weaponizing fear to divide us by turning faith, caste, race, and identity into tools of control and by pitting working-class communities against one another. I’m running to reject hate and religious nationalism, defend religious plurality, and fight for dignity and human rights for all.”

I personally have spent a year working with numerous organizations on the ground at Delaney Hall, in the heat, snow, rain, and wind, providing mutual aid and fighting for the rights of our immigrant neighbors. When the call for solidarity was sent out, we organized and showed up.

Meg is an unapologetic fighter for Plainfield’s working class campaigning to make Plainfield cleaner, safer, and affordable. As a public health professional, Meg knows all too well that public health and wellness extends to all areas of life, including housing, public services, and more.

As city councilor, Meg will fight to keep Plainfield families in their homes through rent control and responsible development. We are proud to add her to our slate of local candidates.

🔁 Cross-endorsement Alert 🚨 We’re teaming up because we know Plainfield and the 12th congressional district deserve fighters for working people. From one doctor to a vet tech, we know this moment requires hands that do the work of making our communities safer, healthier, and dignified.

Renters in Plainfield shouldn’t be priced out of their homes. 🏠✊

I wrote an op-ed calling for real rent control that protects tenants and stabilizes our neighborhoods.

Read it, share it, and let’s fight for housing justice. 🌹💪🏽
