Making sure that the voters of North Greenbush have a voice in their government. That Democracy still has a place in our country, even if we're just one town; I want others to look at North Greenbush and say, "that's a place where government still works."
1. I will bring a new age of transparency and communication to our government. Civics will not long be something simply studied in schools or available only to the elite or the well-to-do. I will use every resource at my disposal to ensure that the people's will is done because it's not only just, it's how representative democracy should work.
2. The focus on green spaces in North Greenbush is of great interest to me. With every resolution, I will look ask for a green impact analysis--does it increase green space or reduce it? Is it a net positive for our ecosystem or a net negative?
3. Most importantly, I hope to insulate North Greenbush from the trouble of Washington DC. While there are many layers between the Federal government and our town, I refuse to comply with a government that does not have the best interests and good will for the people at heart. Thankfully, New York is a fantastic state, and I will seek support from it and other blue states in our coalition.
I am always here to listen. I don't want to be a person who simply sits behind a desk. I want everyone to have my number, my ear, and know where to find me. To me, it's not just a job, and civics is not just a "bystander spectacle." North Greenbush is only of the best places I've ever had the fortune of calling home and I want to show everyone outside of our town just why that is.
