Siddiqui's website highlighted the following campaign themes:
| “ | Education
The schools in Howard County are among best in the Maryland. But as good as they are and as committed as all of us are to excellence in education, we cannot and must not waver in trying to make them even better. As Delegate, my main priorities will be: • Keep all Howard County schools including junior colleges and technical schools more than competitive. The students of today are the leaders of tomorrow. We should not forget that our generation will depend on them in the very near future. At the same time, our teachers are the backbone of the education system. Their value must be duly compensated and enhanced. That is why the upgrading of our education system must continue to be everyone’s priority. Economy As Delegate I will promote: • Innovative public investment dedicated to create jobs and strengthen our local economy. Environment That is why I believe we all must: • Do our part in protecting, embellishing and sustaining the environment because our economy, quality of life and future depend on it.
That is why I support: • More resources and increased funding for our public safety personnel. |
