- Make Long Island More Affordable

- Protect Our Democracy
Combat Corruption And Waste. New York State and Nassau County have a repugnant history of public servants who violate the public trust through self-dealing, waste, and corruption. Enough is enough. We need dramatic reforms to root out misconduct and make it clear that the old way of doing business is over. We need to clean up every level of government by strengthening the tools available to state and local officials to investigate and prosecute public corruption and root out waste.
