Hello, my name is Alicia Contreras-Donello, Democratic Candidate for Maryland’s District 14. I have spent nearly 20 years proudly serving the United States domestically and abroad as a U.S. Diplomat and Foreign Service Officer with the United States Agency for International Development. A proud first-generation Mexican-American and public servant, I’m ready to bring that same commitment as Delegate for Maryland District 14, where I will fight for world-class education, safe and healthy communities, a thriving economy, and a government worthy of the people it serves. If elected, I will be the first Latina to represent this beautiful, diverse district.

BUILDING TOMORROW-TOGETHER
Maryland stands at a pivotal moment. We have the talent, institutions, and values to lead—but we must modernize how we educate our children, grow our economy, keep our communities safe and healthy, and govern in a rapidly changing world.
My platform builds on proven Democratic leadership in Maryland and Montgomery County, including the Blueprint for Maryland’s Future, while offering a forward-looking vision centered on strong schools, resilient communities, and economic growth that works for everyone in District 14 and across Maryland.

Stronger Schools
As a first-generation college graduate, I know education changes lives. I will fight to fully implement the Blueprint for Maryland’s Future, support educators, and ensure every student in District 14 has access to a world-class education, regardless of their background or zip code.

Resilient Communities
Everyone deserves to feel safe and have access to the support they need to grow a thriving community. I stand for balanced, evidence-based solutions that keep communities safe while addressing the root causes of inequity. Healthcare and safe housing should be affordable for all.

Inclusive Growth
Benefiting from public support, I’ve spent my career paying that back by helping businesses grow and communities thrive. I will fight for an inclusive Maryland economy that supports small businesses, creates good jobs, lowers everyday costs, and gives working families a fair shot at opportunity.

Your contribution helps Alicia bring that same commitment home and build a brighter future for all of us, together.
