Councilman Hudson joined members of the Metro Council’s Minority Caucus at a press conference this week to outline their progress on policy goals set within their “Safer Louisville” plan.
During the event, members gave an update on each of the eighteen proposals set out during their September 2025 press event.
“Our ability to achieve our goals for creating first class job opportunities, improving housing and quality of life for our residents is dependent on our ability to provide a safe community. We appreciate the hard work of our first responders and have worked closely with them in crafting these policies. It is our hope that each of these will help to restore safety no matter where you reside.” – Minority Caucus Chair Anthony Piagentini, District 19
In addition to explaining where each policy proposal stood, members of the caucus announced the addition of two new policy proposals to the plan and unveiled a graphic that helps to track progress on each of the initiatives.
“These proposals aren’t about making people feel better – they are real changes and initiatives that are based on research and work with persons in law enforcement. When we unveiled these proposals four months ago, we pledged to give regular updates, so that everyone can know that there is substance to each. Today, we are following up on that promise and we are happy to show that we have already accomplished many of our goals with nearly every policy proposal moving towards implementation.” – Minority Caucus Vice Chair Khalil Batshon, District 25
