I was born and raised in Mayfair, and I understand the value that our seniors contribute to our community --my wife, Bridget, and I are raising our two young daughters right here in the Northeast.  As your representative, I will fight to make sure that our seniors are respected and cared for after a lifetime of working hard and caring for their families. I will not stand back while programs that assist seniors are gutted for cheap political points--our seniors deserve better.   

 I want all of our seniors to have confidence that they will have the resources they need to be able to stay active and healthy. As your representative, I will work closely with the State Department of Aging, the State Attorney General on priorities including:

• Protecting Medicare and Medicaid
• Property Tax/Rent Rebate Program
• Senior Citizen Information including PACE and PACENET
• Persian Gulf Conflict Veterans’ Bonus
  
• Voter Registration, Absentee and Alternative Ballot Applications for those unable to make it to their polling place
  
• Low Income Home Energy Assistance Program (LIHEAP)
• Additional Assistance with Problems regarding any State Government Agency
