When I became Hempstead Town Supervisor, the town hadn't elected a Democrat in over a century. I managed a nearly $500 million budget, took on corruption and actually lowered taxes for residents after years of hikes. The people who liked the old way of doing things weren't happy about it — but it was the right thing to do.
Before I ran for Congress I spent years fighting corruption in local government.

That’s why watching this administration reward cronies and face zero accountability from a rubber-stamp Congress makes me so angry.
Taking back the House majority could change that. It means real oversight. It means someone is actually watching. And my race is one of the seats that decides whether that happens.
