A People-First Agenda for NY-10


Affordability

Families in Brooklyn and Lower Manhattan are being priced out of daily life. I will fight price-gouging, protect public transit, expand affordable childcare, and lower the cost of living for working people.

Tax The Billionaires

Too often, working families carry the burden while the ultra-wealthy find loopholes and pay far less or even less proportionally than everyday people. Billionaires benefit from preferential tax treatment on capital gains and inherited wealth, while teachers, nurses, and service workers pay full income, payroll, and consumer taxes on every dollar they earn. This is backwards. If we want a pro-worker, people-first economy, we have to start by asking the wealthy to contribute their fair share. That means: Closing loopholes that let billionaires avoid taxes, Raising the effective tax rate on extreme wealth, Using revenue to fund childcare, healthcare, housing and transit for working families — not give more tax breaks to those who already have more than they need. Every dollar working people pay should go toward strengthening our communities, not subsidizing the wealth of the ultra-rich.

Housing Is a Human Right

No one should be pushed out of their neighborhood. I support strong tenant protections, rent stabilization, and major investment in permanently affordable, community-controlled housing so NY-10 residents can stay and thrive.

Healthcare for All

Healthcare is a right. I support Medicare for All, full funding for mental health care, community clinics, reproductive healthcare, and gender-affirming care so everyone in NY-10 gets the care they need without debt.

Public Safety Through Community

Real public safety comes from stability and care. I support community-based violence prevention, mental health crisis response, and safer streets and subways without criminalizing poverty or mental illness.

A Pro-Worker Economy

NY-10 runs on workers. I will fight for strong unions, fair wages, protections for gig and freelance workers, and fair taxes on corporations and the ultra-wealthy to support small businesses and cooperatives.

Climate change already impacts NY-10 through heat, flooding, and pollution. I support a Green New Deal that creates union jobs, invests in clean energy, upgrades public housing, and protects frontline communities.
