With me in the City Council, you’ll be represented
by someone with a firm commitment to:
Substantially increase funding to the city’s
Department for the Aging
Implement automatic enrollment in SCRIE and DRIE
so all senior tenants and tenants with disabilities
can have their rent frozen and be exempt from
future rent increases
Establish baseline public funding for home
improvements, like grab bars and handrails, that
allow seniors to safely age in place, rather than in
nursing homes far away from family and community
Increase funding to the Expanded In-home Services
for the Elderly Program (EISEP)
Increase funding to programs such as Medicaid’s
Consumer-Directed Personal Assistance Program
(MCDPAP) that allow family caregivers to be
compensated for care
Advocate for redesign of and better funding for
senior transportation, like Access-A-Ride or senior
center vans
To build the Queens we
deserve, we must invest
in care and caregivers.

Vote
June 22
I took care of my grandmother while I
was on food stamps and in
community college, at a time when
there was no one else in her corner. I
know what it means to do the hard
work of caregiving. Supporting those
who need care — which is all of us —
takes supporting those who give
care.
I’m running for City Council in my
home of District 23 to prioritize
caregivers and the seniors, families,
and workers whose essential needs
they meet.
If we work together, the
Queens we deserve is possible.
