Get StartedWe protect our neighbors by protecting their rights. I will defend voting access, fight discrimination in housing and employment, welcome refugees and immigrants who strengthen our communities, and ensure government serves everyone in Cheektowaga, Lancaster, and Buffalo—not just the wealthy and well-connected.

From West Seneca East High School to Fredonia to UB, public schools gave me my shot at opportunity. I will fight for full Foundation Aid for schools across the district, reject any voucher schemes that drain public dollars, and ensure every child gets small class sizes, mental health support, and teachers paid what they're worth.

Our neighborhoods in Cheektowaga, Lancaster, and Buffalo thrive because of diversity. From refugees from Burma, Somalia, and Congo to immigrants from Bangladesh and beyond, newcomers build businesses, buy homes, and strengthen our communities. I stand against ICE raids that terrorize families and will champion policies that welcome newcomers, because we've always been a community where hard work earns you a place at the table. Learn more
I know firsthand unions built the middle class because they built my family's path forward. I stand committed to fair wages, prevailing wage protections, the right to organize and collectively bargain, and economic security for working families because when labor wins, we all win. Learn more
