The People's Candidate
Charlene Tarver is the Democratic nominee running to serve as the next Onondaga County legislator for District 16. Like her father Roosevelt Tarver (owner of Oasis Fish House), throughout her life and career, Charlene has been a champion for those living in the margins. She believes in a future where every voice matters, no child is left behind, and all people are empowered to live up to their fullest potential.-That means every single Central New Yorker. She's a visionary leader experienced in working across the aisle to get things done. She's fought for police body worn cameras, repealing Arizona's 12-month lifetime cap on foodstamps, and lobbying former AZ Governor Doug Ducey(R) to shelter in place during COVID-19 and pass moratoriums to prevent utility shutoffs and evictions.
Charlene's campaign is the People’s Campaign! — A movement where the people come first, not titles, slogans, or political agendas, but safe neighborhoods, strong families, small business support, economic growth and housing affordability, and integrated mental health and public safety services.
Charlene believes people and families should always come first and that we must prioritize our most vulnerable populations. That's why she's co-developing a $42M mixed-use micro affordable housing community on the Southside and she launched the Women's Expo and Incubator. Charlene believes that when we work together we can dismantle systems that marginalize and divest in communities, we reduce poverty and improve the quality of life for all. Vote Charlene Tarver for the June 23rd Democratic Primary. Experienced, proven leadership. Early voting is June 13th - June 21st.

Why I’m Running
"Never ever be afraid to make some noise, and get in good trouble, necessary trouble". — Congressman John Lewis
Often times, things don't change without some good trouble. When we stand together, and cause good trouble, we can create policies and systems that make Onondaga County stronger, more inclusive, and more efficient....Better for all the children and families, seniors, and small businesses that call Onondaga County home.
I love District 16 and that pride has taken me around the world! Everything I've done in my career was preparation for serving the community that raised me. As a native Syracusan, I’m running because I’m skilled, qualified, and ready to lead. Let’s stand together and make some good trouble to improve the quality of life for residents across Onondaga County.
#StrongerTogether
