THE ISSUES THAT MATTER
HEALTHCARE IS A HUMAN RIGHT
Over the past two decades, Queens has lost an alarming number of hospitals and other healthcare resources. The consequences have been devastating, which is why l have been fighting to ensure that Queens will be underserved no more.
INVEST IN OUR SCHOOLS
Our children only get one shot at a great education. We need to afford parents and teachers alike the support they need to ensure all students are given every opportunity to succeed. First, New York City needs to expand early education programs throughout the city.
FIX THE MTA & BUILD SAFE STREETS
For too long, our public transportation options have been overcrowded, unreliable, and inaccessible. The ability of our community and our city to get back on its feet, depends on it. Our public health depends on it. It means expanding bus service instead of curtailing it.
SUPPORT OUR SMALL BUSINESSES
I have tirelessly advocated to ensure that we have a City budget and policy priorities that focus on rebuilding our communities. I have worked with our local small businesses, who are the backbone of our economy, to ensure that they can continue to thrive in our neighborhoods.
