Questions & Answers

1. What are the three major issues you would address immediately if elected?

I would immediately address the issues of high taxes, lack of affordable housing and urban crime that are forcing New Yorkers to move out of state.

2. What is your opinion regarding the formation of an independent redistricting commission?

I heartily endorse formation of an independent redistricting commission. The current process encourages complacency, inactivity and corruption by smug incumbent officeholders.

3. What makes you the best candidate for this office?

I bring a fresh, youthful perspective that will infuse energy into a body of lawmakers that rarely accomplish significant changes. I want to actually make a difference!
