Ballotpedia survey responses

Christina Khalil completed Ballotpedia's Candidate Connection survey in 2022. The survey questions appear in bold and are followed by Khalil's responses. Candidates are asked three required questions for this survey, but they may answer additional optional questions as well.
| Collapse all
Khalil started working in the co-occurring field in 2016. She began working as an intern and then moved to working as a liaison between Drug Court and treatment. She worked diligently on policy and procedures, and collecting data for grants. Khalil also worked as a clinician for a few years and worked as a frontline healthcare employee during the beginning and end of the Covid epidemic. Khalil has spent a lot of her time volunteering to help those in many different communities.
- Inflation- Khalil believes we have to fight to ensure that New Jersey residents can comfortably rest knowing they can afford to pay their rent every month. Citizens deserve to be able to work one full time job and be able to afford their basic needs.
- High Premiums/Universal Healthcare - Khalil believes in order to ensure that healthcare companies do not raise their prices. It is essential that copayments or deductibles remain affordable for everyone until we can obtain universal healthcare.
- Social Security- Geriatric population is ignored after many years of keeping this country afloat. Citizens are who run this country. Without the citizens this country would fall and so would all the multi-million and billion dollar corporations. We need to thank and treat all the amazing citizens and take care of them the same way they have taken care of our country.
This is an impossible amount to live off of, welfare goes by net income- before taxes. A single adult working one full time job is making $2,260.80 gross income before taxes. The New Jersey food stamp minimum monthly income limit is $1,316.00 per month and Medicaid $1,565.00 per month. A single person working one full time minimum wage job doesn’t qualify to apply for any benefits such as food stamps or Medicaid. There is a trickle effect because of inflation such as increased crime, increased domestic violence, increased homelessness, increased mental health, increased substance abuse. There is also an increase in health issues as well, people are getting sick from overworking their bodies. If you do not take a break your body will make you take a break. When a person is sick they tend to be ignored and forgotten about. It is important to change that in New Jersey.
