This is the future we aspire to: The people of the Northern Marianas enjoy a safe, just, healthy, and beautiful Commonwealth.
Economic development improves the quality of life for all. Educational institutions build skilled workers and great citizens. Decent jobs pay decent wages. Worker rights are protected. Small businesses thrive.
Our island cultures, natural resources, and historic sites are cherished and preserved. Our physical and social environment promotes healthy living. People feel secure in their homes, schools, workplaces, and villages. Neighbors care for one another.
Trustworthy leaders respect and uphold the laws of the land, and prioritize precious resources to deliver the infrastructure and services that the people of the Marianas deserve. Diversity is celebrated. Representation matters.
OUR VALUES
At the core of our values is a commitment to good governance. Good governance means open and honest government, accountable leaders, and empowered citizens.
It means a government that builds trust through transparency, and exercises fiscal responsibility, investing public resources in initiatives that serve the greatest good. It means leadership that adheres to the highest ethical standards; leadership that cares about its people, and recognizes that true economic development lifts up the entire community and builds for a better future for all.
It means mutual respect, and freedom from fear. Our commonwealth can be islands of hope and opportunity if everyone feels free to speak their minds and participate in the public decision-making that affects their lives and community. Public service means that leaders serve the people, not the other way around.
