Strengthening Our Community Through Communication
Clean Energy:
I will continue to fight for clean energy jobs and promote an affordable green economy. I was instrumental in passing landmark legislation that will create more off-shore wind and hydro power. Our future is in energy storage and I will fight to create an environment where green technology will thrive.
Local Aid:
I will continue to fight for increased education funding, special education circuit breaker and charter school reimbursement. I will also continue to fight for our public safety officers, transportation and road projects.
Addiction:
Drug and Alcohol addiction has historically caused pain for families and negatively impacted our economy. This is a social ill we should not turn a blind eye towards. I will continue to fight to ensure our community has the needed funds to provide treatment to tackle this ongoing crisis.
Mental Health:
We have made positive strides towards helping those who deal with mental health issues. I will continue to fight to make sure mental health has parity with physical health.
Fiscal Management:
I am proud to have supported a balanced state budget that also increased our stabilization account to $2 billion. A strong economy is built with sound fiscal management and I will continue to make this a priority. Click on State House for FY2019 Budget Process.
