Proposals

Condo and coop owners face serious problems. I offer reforms that will help.

Housing needs rapid action. For years politicians (like my opponent) gave lip service to NYCHA and affordable housing. I have a comprehensive plan for intense and rapid action.

The small business climate in our city is atrocious. Mom and pops need help! Small businesses historically accounted for 51% of our state’s total jobs (Small Business Advocacy).

Congress - not bureaucracies - must thoroughly regulate crypto currency (a.k.a. block chain technology). Millions of people buy crypto and we must protect those people from scammers and bad actors. However, we must protect and encourage developers in the crypto industry because it is the next generation of the web. If we shut down crypto, the US will lose millions of new jobs and trillions of dollars in economic power to threats like Russia and China.

Viruses die or mutate quickly, often within weeks. COVID mutated many times and it’s not the killer it was years ago. I see fearful people in my district who wear masks. We need to repair psychological damage and allow medical science to further study “long Covid” and the many people who suffer from it. I am one of them. I developed painful feet problems soon after I got the vaccine. It remains a problem. There are many people like me who deserve research on our behalf. I will encourage NIH and FDA research into “long Covid” and ways to help people suffering from it. I will also address irrational attacks on standard vaccines like measles, smallpox and polio.

Reasonable Americans know racism and slavery in past were horrible. Critical race theory (CRT) & cancel culture attack ethnic groups, casting blame on them for crimes centuries ago. It’s unfair - especially to innocent children shamed for sins they have nothing to do with. It only divides us more and undoes strides by Martin Luther King and the civil rights movement trying to rid us of segregation and bring people together.
