Where I Stand

As someone who’s lived the struggles so many in NY-2 face, I’m not running to play politics, I’m running to fight for the working class, for justice, and for a future that doesn’t leave anyone behind. Here are the issues that matter most to our community:

🏡 Affordable Housing & Rent Relief

Everyone deserves a safe, affordable place to call home.
We’ll fight for rent stabilization, stronger tenant protections, and investments in truly affordable housing, because housing is a human right, not a luxury.

From K-12 to college, education should be free and empowering.

🗳️ Voting Rights & Democracy

Our democracy works best when everyone can participate.
