I'm both impressed and concerned about Karen Whitsett's candidacy for Detroit City Council. On one hand, it's great that she's throwing her hat into the ring and giving voters a choice

. But on the other hand, her lack of engagement with policy-making is super alarming

. As a city struggling with economic recovery, affordable housing, and public safety, we need someone who can actually make a difference

.
Whitsett's record speaks for itself – 77% absenteeism from session days? That's a red flag

️. And her voting record on issues like minimum wage, paid sick leave, and reproductive rights is concerning

. It seems like she's more interested in serving herself than the people of District 7

.
I'm not saying Whitsett can't change or grow, but right now, it seems like she's not the leader we need for this city

. We deserve someone who will actively work to improve our lives, make tough decisions, and prioritize the needs of their constituents
