I was born, raised, and have lived in NJ my entire life. I have been married to my husband, Mike, a Navy veteran and electrician, for 32 years. We have two young adult children whom we raised in Long Valley and educated through NJ public schools. We are proud blue-collar working-class people, and together we own and operate a small commercial electrical contracting business. Prior to starting our business, Mike was a Union Electrician, and I was a licensed Property/Casualty (including Health) Insurance Underwriter in our state. I do not have an Ivy League education, I am not a lawyer, and I am not connected to anyone in power. What I am is REPRESENTATIVE. I have faced the same endless struggles you do on a daily basis with everything from affording healthcare and groceries to getting help for a special needs child and trying to save for retirement. I know how we got into this mess and, more importantly, I know how to fix it. We start by cleaning up OUR Congress to end the control of big money and special interests. That can only be done with new leadership, we will not be saved by those who got us here in the first place.

Each summary is supported by the candidate's own words from a campaign source, direct candidate response, or official primary record retained with the profile.
Support a constitutional amendment to overturn Citizens United and reduce the influence of large donors and special interests in Congress.
The text below is the exact source material used for this statement.
This is at the root of why we are such a mess in our country today, it truly is America’s cancer. EVERY issue from healthcare and immigration to energy and common-sense gun laws are directly tied to big money and special interests controlling our congress. The SCOTUS ruling on Citizens United in 2010 has gutted our ability to get anything done to benefit Americans. There is a proposed 28th Amendment resolution in the Senate to overturn CU that I will sign on day one. Next, I will relentlessly lobby other MOCs to sign on as well. Change can come from the top and it’s time for our representatives to be on record with who they work for. Overturning Citizens United IS the game changer for this country and will be the deciding factor in whether this “experiment in democracy” succeeds or fails. It is THAT important!
Support Medicare for All and sign onto federal Medicare-for-All legislation.

I am a FIERCE supporter of M4A and will sign on to Bernie Sander’s Bill S1506 immediately. As a former underwriter, I can assure you that
insurance will NEVER work for healthcare as insurance is designed for loss, not maintenance. We waste BILLIONS every year in taxpayer dollars in our state propping up a failed system. OUR money should be
healthcare, not record billion-dollar profits for a handful of companies that provide no medical products or services. This is my “wheelhouse” as they say and I am so ready for that fight.
Abolish ICE and replace the current system with comprehensive immigration reform and a fast-tracked pathway to citizenship.

ABOLISH immediately and replace with a vigorous and fast-tracked path to citizenship. Comprehensive reform could have been passed long ago but leadership of both parties continue to turn a willing and well-compensated eye the other way every year. A working-class congress that is not beholden to donors will get this done with an aggressio
ABOLISH immediately and replace with a vigorous and fast-tracked path to citizenship. Comprehensive reform could have been passed long ago but leadership of both parties continue to turn a willing and well-compensated eye the other way every year. A working-class congress that is not beholden to donors will get this done with an aggression that is at least twice that as ICE is currently terrorizing our country. This must be a priority.
Oppose additional U.S. military and taxpayer support for the current Israeli government's conduct in Gaza and support legal accountability for alleged war crimes.

stopped. There is substantial evidence provided by the ICC that Netanyahu is committing genocidal acts and he should be charged and brought to trial for war crimes. Unlike Cory Booker, I will NOT vote in any way to continue arming Netanyahu and I will not be accepting support, money or otherwise from AIPAC in any form. Sending taxpayer dollars to Israel when we have so much need here at home is wasteful.
Open New Jersey primaries to all registered voters and use independent commissions for state and congressional redistricting.

Guns are the number one cause of death for our children, yet we are unable to pass any legislation to fix this health crisis. This issue is another example of how Citizens United has allowed an industry, in this case the gun lobby, to control our congress. Just as we will be able to provide healthcare to our citizens with the elimination of Citizens United, we will be able to finally protect our children with the passage of meaningful gun control laws and can begin to feel safe in our schools and communities again.
Support stronger federal gun-control laws intended to reduce gun violence and improve safety in schools and communities.

Public-record research limitation
This does not mean the candidate has no prior public service or record. A record attaches only after authoritative office history and a stable provider identity are established; names, titles, attendance, sponsorship, and inferred responsibility are insufficient.
Official filings may be amended after publication.
No federal totals are attached because the candidate did not resolve to one exact FEC identity and compatible current total. Missing values are not zero.
Every profile claim points back to retained source evidence.
