Candidate Statement

I pledge not to take contributions from the real estate industry, oil, gas, and coal industry executives, lobbyists, or PACs and instead prioritize the health of our families, climate, and democracy over fossil fuel industry profits. I will advocate for education, housing, jobs, Small Businesses, and Green New Deal. I was born and raised in a NYCHA development by a single mother in the Bronx and was educated in the New York City public school system. I am a non-establishment candidate who will speak truth to power. Our elected officials have been disconnected and in the pocket of PACs and corporations. They do not represent the voices in our community and have failed us far too long. I would like to see Justice for All.
