Jason : It ’ s okay . No one knew about my circumstances when I was in Atlanta . Shanna : And that was so admirable of Tynisa to stick by you when the road was rough . This is
truly indicative of you guys ’ love . You see , this is why you guys are a PowerCouple . You didn ’ t let anything hold you down and you are back and doing so many wonderful things in the community . Hats off to you both !!
Jason : Thank you , Shanna .
Shanna : No . Thank you for all your service . Now , you are running for Mayor . If you become the
Mayor of Georgetown , what would be some of the 1 st things you will implement ?
Jason : When I become mayor , I want to sign off on papers to help young men get charges
expunged for first or second time nonviolent offenders . I believe in second chances . There are lots of men out there that can ’ t be gainfully employed due to small blemishes on their records . I want to remedy that so they are able to get the jobs that they are qualified for and take care of their families and not have a mistake they made in the past hinder their entire life . Also , in the first 90 days of my mayoral tenure , I would like to change the cycle of poverty , promote jobs in Georgetown , increase economic development to make it more inclusive , and increase minimum wage for employees to $ 10 per hour for businesses with 10 or more employees that are in the city limits .
Shanna : I ’ m so proud of you Jason ! I commend you and Tynisa on the work you are doing in
Georgetown .
