Austin City Councilwoman Mackenzie Kelly has been appointed to the National League of Cities 2023 Public Safety and Crime Prevention federal advocacy committee. Kelly was elected to a one-year term and will provide strategic direction and guidance for NLC’s federal advocacy agenda, as well as policy priorities on public safety issues that include law enforcement, municipal fire prevention, natural disaster preparedness, and homeland security.

“My priority is and has always been to keep my community safe. Being re-appointed to the NLC Public Safety Crime Prevention Committee helps ensure that the needs in Austin and all over the country are supported at the federal level related to public safety, “said Kelly.

As a member of NLC’s PSCP committee, Kelly said she will play a key role in shaping NLC’s policy positions and advocate on behalf of America’s cities, towns and villages before Congress, with the administration, and at home.

“NLC’s federal advocacy committees are a key tool for gathering insights directly from the communities that our members serve,” said NLC President Mayor Victoria Woodards of Tacoma, Washington. “I am excited to have Councilwoman Kelly serve on the NLC PSCP committee and look forward to working with her to ensure every city, town and village in this nation has the resources they need to thrive.”
