Good evening, everyone. It is your future councilman, Jobans Jules.
What I'm sitting on right here is a pile of trash that's right here in the city of North Miami, District 3.
What I'm currently holding in my hand is a lawsuit that was filed by the City of North Miami, current councilperson. They are suing me based on technicalities on a check that was instructed for me to give the city of North Miami.
What they fail to understand is that I got qualified via petition, and the law is clear. The law is the law. If you get qualified via petitions, then you are exempt from drawing a campaign check from your account.
Out of all the work that needs to get done in the city of North Miami, District 3, they start by taking our signs down. They are attacking us on the radios.
Now, if you can't beat them, you sue them. We're gonna let our attorney take care of this, but in the meantime, we're gonna keep pounding on them. We're gonna keep knocking on these doors until November 3rd.
Tell your friends, tell your family that we are on the ground every day because it's time for change.
It is time for us to elevate our middle class. It is time for us to continue inspiring our youth. It is time for us to find ways to protect our seniors.
