Issue Position: Eliminating Waste, Fraud, & Abuse

Issue Position

For too long, New Jersey has been lambasted for its corrupt government officials and sweetheart deals. Now, it's time to drain the swamps of Jersey. I want to hold those in Trenton and in public service positions accountable to both their constituents and the law. I support and hope to expand upon existing legislation in the State Senate that would:
​
- Prohibit simultaneous employment in state, country, municipal, and appointed positions to eliminate double- and triple-dipping;
- Eliminate state contract awards to businesses in which state, county, and local public officials hold controlling interests;
- Require forfeiture of public office upon conviction of crimes;
- Mandate full forfeiture of public pensions for any public official convinced of any crime violating the public trust; and
- Require all state, county, and local government officials and appointees to receive regular ethics training.
