Our Mission
Rise Up Mount Vernon exists to move our city forward—together. We are an independent political action committee created by local residents to drive progress rooted in equity, transparency, and opportunity.
We believe every Mount Vernon resident deserves access to safe neighborhoods, excellent schools, a fair economy, and a government that listens. Our mission is to uplift the voices of our community—not just the loudest or the best connected, but every neighbor ready to help build a stronger, more inclusive Mount Vernon.
We are committed to bold, honest action that centers people over politics and delivers the future our city deserves.
Let’s Rise Together!
