YIMBY Action✓ EndorsesAbout Steven McCarty
Steven grew up in a close-knit family with his twin sister. When he was 14, his father passed away. His mother and grandmother raised him and his sister, relying on food stamps and government assistance to make ends meet.
Those early experiences of hardship and resilience shaped Steven's understanding of the struggles faced by underserved communities and ignited his passion for advocacy. He learned the value of hard work and the importance of community support, and committed himself to fighting for people who are too often overlooked.
That drive led him to a career electing Democrats committed to caring for their communities: organizing with the AFL-CIO for workers' rights, technology consulting for State Democratic Parties, and successfully organizing his own CWA union at his former company.
