Rep. Camille Y. Lilly

Given Mr. Mayers’ background as a national expert, his insights and knowledge on drafting and amending legislative language reflect real equity and inclusivity. Carlton is a talented professional with a big heart. I truly enjoyed working with him on legislation and other community issues.
Fred Royal

His unique perspective as a national policing reform expert helped us pass policing reform bills that address concerns of community members related to use of force, chokeholds, public reporting of police data, etc. . .
Josh Hilgart
Executive Director, Kalamazoo Defender
Carlton brought to the table three critical ingredients: 1) he was a subject matter expert on criminal justice reform; 2) he readily understood the politics peculiar to our locale; and 3) his character and approach unified the community around a common vision and solution, without alienating those who were slower to come onboard
"Ignoring these cries and failing to respond to this movement is simply not an option - for peace cannot exist where justice is not served"
