Affordability
The State must provide clear, accessible grant funding to municipalities, with guidance on how to reduce costs for taxpayers. Support legislation that incentivizes shared services and regionalized functions to ease the property tax burden. The current Stay NJ program must be restructured—its benefits and funding model are unsustainable and must be reworked to truly support seniors.
Education
With federal funding cuts looming, the State must reassess its role in public education. The special needs funding formula, untouched since 2007, must be updated to ensure equitable support. The State should use surplus funds to help local districts preserve traditional learning programs and essential student services. Strong public education is critical to long-term success—for students, families, and our communities.
New Jersey democracy is improving—but real reform requires independence from party bosses. I’m running outside the political machine, without a county line endorsement, because voters—not insiders—deserve to be heard. Our grassroots campaign focuses on direct voter engagement, not backroom deals. I’m proud to be endorsed by the Good Government Coalition of NJ for my commitment to transparency and accountability. In Trenton, we must revisit recent changes that weakened OPRA and campaign finance laws—reforms pushed by entrenched incumbents and political operatives. Voters deserve honest leadership that works for them, not the machine.
As an Assembly candidate, strengthening New Jersey’s economy starts with making sure the people who live and work here come first—not special interests. We need to invest in small businesses by cutting through red tape and making state grant programs easier to access. Let’s focus on real workforce development—programs that lead to good-paying, long-term jobs. We should also invest in infrastructure, support energy and tech industries, and create real incentives for businesses to grow here—not just handouts for big corporations. Property tax reform and targeted tax relief will help working families stay and thrive in New Jersey. This is about building a stronger economy that works for everyone.
I will resurface my response from the first question as public education and funding is a critical item for me.

Almost every president in recent decades supported a secure border, and I agree that border security is necessary. But the current overcorrection is creating unnecessary harm to our communities and neighbors. We need real immigration reform—one that protects public safety, secures our borders, and still reflects the values of opportunity that define this country. People who are here, working hard, paying taxes, and contributing to our society deserve a clear, fair path to citizenship. We must identify and support those individuals while also ensuring that our immigration laws are followed and enforced. I do support the Immigrant Trust Act, but if elected, I would suggest minor changes to make it more effective in balancing public safety with the rights of immigrants. We can be tough on crime and still believe in the American dream.
