Issues

An Affordable Hudson County 

Our County is in the midst of an affordability crisis. In 2023, you need to make more than $100,000 per year to afford the median home in Hudson County. I’ve watched as property taxes have surged and rents have skyrocketed. As Commissioner, I would do everything in my power to secure state and federal funding to get shovels in the ground on affordable housing projects across the county. 

My Plan: 

  • Secure funding for affordable, supportive, and senior housing projects 

  • Expand access to affordability programs to provide housing support for both working families and the middle class

  • Support transit oriented development

Increased Quality of Life and Public Safety

Hudson County residents deserve access to green space, engaging opportunities for the youth, and community gathering spaces such as libraries and recreation centers. They also deserve to feel supported and embraced by their community as I was when I moved to Jersey City 14 years ago. 

My Plan:

  • Increased funding for open green space projects

  • More Youth Programming 

  • Expand access to public indoor spaces 

  • Secure funding for mental health services

  • Greater funding for public transit initiatives

A Greener Future for All 

Each year we watch as a new powerful storm submerges cars, damages homes and wipes-out businesses in our community. Climate Change is estimated to cost Hudson County 660 million dollars annually, a figure that will only increase. 

My Plan: 

  • 100% renewable energy by 2035

  • Expanding our tree canopy 

  • Enacting a Hudson County Zero Waste Plan

  • Improved stormwater management infrastructure  

  • Removal of lead pipes from across the county

Greater Transparency and Accountability in Government

I’m a firm believer that the government should be transparent, accessible, and work for every constituent, not just machine politicians and their wealthy donors. 

My Plan:

  • Monthly town halls 

  • Greater explanations and data visualizations on the county website 

  • Ending the practice of patronage jobs in County Government
