Get StartedI will always stand up to protect reproductive freedom and make sure New York remains a place where people can make their own decisions about their care. Learn more
I’m running to take on the everyday costs that are making it harder to get by—housing, utilities , healthcare, and child care—and to make sure people who work hard can actually stay ahead. Learn more
I support major investments in clean, affordable energy so we can lower utility bills while reducing our reliance on fossil fuels. Learn more
We should be leading on things like expanding community solar so people can save without installing panels, weatherizing older homes so families aren’t paying to heat the outdoors, upgrading our grid so it’s reliable during extreme weather, and building housing near jobs and infrastructure so growth doesn’t push people out.

I support the New York HEAT Act because it would cap energy costs and stop unnecessary expenses from being passed on to ratepayers. Learn more
From mass shooting events to safe storage, common sense legislative measures are essential to keeping firearms out of the hands of people who intend to do harm. In addition to these measures, funding social emotional supports for adolescents is central to any efforts to reduce community gun violence. Learn more
I’m also a strong supporter of the New York Health Act because I believe everyone deserves coverage without worrying about cost or access. Learn more
And while we keep pushing for a universal, single-payer healthcare system, there are immediate steps we can take–like proposals to cap excessive hospital billing and bring down out-of-pocket costs for everyday care. Learn more
We also need to invest in the people holding the system together–our nurses, EMS workers, and rural providers–because access doesn’t mean much if there’s no one there to provide care. Learn more
We also need more housing people can afford. That means building union-constructed housing, supporting first-time buyers, and making sure renters have a fair shot at staying in the communities they love. Learn more
I believe we need to move toward ending the role of ICE in our communities as we know it—because a system that separates families, targets people who are contributing and working, and creates fear instead of safety is broken at its core. The Dignity Not Detention Act is a key piece of this protection. Learn more
We need to keep immigration enforcement out of schools, hospitals, and places of worship, guarantee legal representation so people aren’t navigating the system alone, and make sure people feel safe seeking medical care or reporting a crime. Protecting immigrant families is about protecting the strength and stability of our entire community. Learn more
We can also get ahead of growth by strengthening and improving safety on our roads, implementing traffic calming measures, clean water systems, and public infrastructure, and making sure our small towns and cities aren’t overwhelmed or priced out. Learn more
