From Undocumented Roots to the Mayor’s Office to Congress?

Most people talk about the American Dream; Mayor Adrian Mapp lived it.

He arrived from Barbados to join his mother, who had first come to the U.S. as an undocumented immigrant to pave the way for her children. In this episode, we discuss his journey from those roots to leading Plainfield through four terms of "transformational change."

We dive into what it actually takes to manage a city and why he believes the 12th District needs an executive who has already done the work on the ground. From housing and economic growth in NJ to immigration and restoring the U.S. reputation on the world stage, Mayor Mapp shares a vision for Washington rooted in his own lived experience.
