The most pressing issues facing the 15th District and Westchester County are affordability, public health, and equity. This includes addressing the housing crisis, rising energy and living costs, expanding access to healthcare and mental health services, improving infrastructure and flood mitigation, and investing in environmental justice and transportation. Residents deserve responsive government that delivers real solutions and improves quality of life for working families.
