I have spent much of my life serving and protecting our Bronx senior citizens, families, and business communities, and will be blessed to have your trust and support to continue this work in the US Congress.

While many left when the Bronx was burning, I stayed to help build it back, and I continue to build.

I have not chased after PACs or big money phantoms to fund my campaign. My support comes from people on all sides of the political spectrum who want to help me make a difference in the US Congress.

Unlike others, my district office proudly serves more than 200 constituents each week.

My political experience makes me best qualified to improve the economic, housing, educational, health care and social service needs here in Bronx County.
