Affordability

Lower Costs. Real Relief. Working Families First.

Affordability isn't just about prices—it's about power.

Families across the 56th District are being squeezed. Rising costs on everything from groceries to utilities. Unfair rate hikes from corporations that answer to shareholders, not customers. A system designed to extract wealth from working people instead of protecting them.

That's what I fight for in Albany: policies that lower everyday costs, protect healthcare access, hold powerful systems accountable, and ensure working people can keep more of what they earn.

Lowering Everyday Costs

I'm pushing back against corporate price gouging, unfair utility rate hikes, and exploitative fees that drain family budgets. When big companies squeeze consumers for profit, I hold them accountable.

What this looks like:

  • Fighting utility rate increases that hurt working families

  • Cracking down on hidden fees and predatory pricing

  • Demanding transparency and accountability from corporations

  • Supporting policies that cap costs on essentials like prescription drugs

Protecting Healthcare Access

Healthcare shouldn't be a luxury. I'm fighting to expand coverage, lower costs, and ensure every family in the 56th District can see a doctor without going broke.

What this looks like:

  • Defending the Affordable Care Act and expanding Medicaid

  • Fighting for lower prescription drug costs

  • Supporting community health centers in underserved neighborhoods

  • Ensuring mental health services are accessible and affordable

Holding Powerful Systems Accountable

Too often, the systems that should protect working families operate without real oversight. I demand accountability and transparency, so families aren't left fighting bureaucracies alone.

What this looks like:

  • Strengthening consumer protection laws

  • Increasing enforcement against corporate bad actors

  • Ensuring families have access to legal support when systems fail them

  • Fighting for stronger regulation of industries that exploit consumers

Tax Fairness for Working Families

I believe in a tax system that works for working people—not just the wealthy. That means keeping more money in your pocket, not asking families who are already struggling to subsidize corporate tax breaks.

What this looks like:

  • Opposing property tax increases that burden homeowners

  • Supporting tax credits and relief for working families

  • Fighting for wealthy corporations and individuals to pay their fair share

  • Ensuring public dollars benefit communities, not just the well-connected

The Bottom Line:

Real affordability means families can pay their bills without panic. It means healthcare doesn't bankrupt you. It means corporations can't squeeze you dry without consequences. When working families have power, Brooklyn stays affordable.The Bottom Line:Real affordability means families can pay their bills without panic. It means healthcare doesn't bankrupt you.
