Read the answers from all candidates (who have responded).

Questions & Answers

1. What are the three major issues you would address immediately if elected?

1) Education, health care and property taxes. State education funding and Medicaid need dramatic overhauls to reduce waste, improve results and alleviate the growing financial burden on local taxpayers.

2. What is your opinion regarding the formation of an independent redistricting commission?

2) I support an independent redistricting commission because legislative districts should be drawn based on geography and shared local interests, not rigged for partisan political purposes.

3. What makes you the best candidate for this office?

3) I have a 12 year record of fighting for better schools, accessible health care, consumer protection and tougher criminal laws. I have proven I can get results for my constituents.
