Issue Position: Standing Up for Our Taxpayers

Issue Position

Families across our community live each and every day on a strict budget and our government needs to do the same. Politicians need to learn that residents aren't their piggybanks.

This year, our Governor held the budget process hostage as he tried to tie it to outrageous policy changes like taxpayer-funded tuition for illegal immigrants. That is simply no way to govern and we sent a strong message to the people of New York that that we will stand up for their needs by rejecting those tactics.

I believe in safeguarding taxpayers' hard-earned money and investing it in the things we really need, like safer streets, better public schools, new jobs, and better infrastructure. As your representative, I will continue to stand up against the New York City politicians who lack an understanding of our unique needs.
