A neighbor who shows up

Jordan Rivera is running for State House to fix our roads, fund our schools and pick up the phone when you call.

Meet Jordan

Jordan grew up in District 112, went to its public schools and still lives four miles from the house they grew up in. For eleven years Jordan has worked as a nurse at the county hospital, where the night shift taught them to listen first and fix what they can.

When the clinic on Route 9 closed, Jordan organized neighbors to bring a mobile clinic back twice a month. That’s the kind of work Jordan wants to do in Nashville: show up, listen and get the small things done that make a big difference.

Jordan and their partner, Casey, have two kids at Hillcrest Elementary and a dog named Biscuit who has opinions about the mail carrier.

Where Jordan stands

Plain answers on the things neighbors bring up most at the door.

  • Roads you can drive on

    Fix the worst stretches of Route 9 and Mill Creek Road first, and publish the repair list so you can see what’s next.

  • Schools that keep good teachers

    Raise starting pay for teachers and bus drivers, and keep public money in public schools.

  • Care close to home

    Bring a full-time clinic back to the north end of the district and expand Medicaid so working families can see a doctor.

  • An office that answers

    Every call and email gets a reply within two business days. Office hours every month in a different part of the district.
