John, my motto in life is simple: “If you do nothing, nothing will change.”

That’s why I don’t take my responsibility as NY-15’s representative lightly.

While some in Congress, may be content sitting back and letting the status quo continue indefinitely, let me tell you what I’m here fighting for:

Housing:

I grew up in public housing in conditions of mold and mildew, leaks and lead, without consistent heat or hot water in the winter. Not enough has changed, and that’s unacceptable to me.

I’m working to build more affordable housing, expand Section 8, and elevate living conditions.


Opportunity for All:

The United States has the tools to lift millions of Americans out of poverty, and it’s time we start acting like it.

Expanding the Child Tax Credit, enacting Medicare for All, desegregating schools and cancelling student loan debt is the perfect place to start.


Justice:

Economic, racial, environmental and social justice are all inextricably bound together.

Reimagining the criminal justice system, passing the Green New Deal, and creating a feasible pathway to citizenship are all on the table.

That’s what this is all about, John.

While running for office isn’t easy, serving the community that raised me is the greatest honor of my life.

And frankly, it’s easier knowing I have your support.

If you’re dedicated to fighting for transformative change, will you consider giving $3 to support my reelection campaign? I can’t win without your support »
