The questions were prepared by the League of Women Voters of Buffalo/Niagara and asked of all candidates for this office.
Read the answers from all candidates (who have responded).Questions & Answers
1. There is growing support for reform of the Rockefeller drug laws. What will you do to: a.) Initiate significant reform of these laws; b.) Provide adequate financial support for programs, on the community level, designed to cope with the impact of such reform?
I believe the Rockefeller laws unjustly force non-violent criminals into violent environment. A friend was rehabbed but he fiscally paid for it almost making him relapse. We must invest ourselves fully into making addicts clean in order to help society.2. What programs and actions will you support to protect communities from the negative consequences of the state’s increasing dependence on gambling revenue?
Between Lotto, Casinos and OTB: gambling is a big revenue industry. I would start programs where people, not their money, are the basis of change and support. The state must restrict revenue usage to family and community based desires not needs. We must not be addicts to that money.
Responses to questions asked of each candidate are reproduced as submitted to the League.
