Candidate Questionnaire Responses
When in office, what will you do to reduce harm and ensure there is social and economic equity for Black Long Islanders? If you are an incumbent, what policies/initiatives/laws have you supported that do this?
I will support growth of the economy by leveraging the assets of our Community Colleges, Universities and Scientific Institutions to help create and train community members for new jobs in fields such as Bio-Medical and advanced manufacturing and medicine. If elected, I will look to expand vocational training for all students across the County. Initiating a program to redevelop abandoned and underutilized Commercial Properties to build affordable housing will ensure all members of Suffolk County are able to live and thrive on Long Island. Protecting the environment by providing clean, safe water to all the County residents and eliminating the use of Cesspools by expanding the Sewer Systems will allow the economy to grow and for Businesses to expand and employ more people.
Is there anything else you'd like us to know about your campaign?
As an attorney and small business owner, I have experience and knowledge that will be beneficial to my time in office and aide in projects across Suffolk County.
