The survey questions appear in bold and are followed by Jasey's responses.\nExpand all | Collapse all\nWho are you? Tell us about yourself. I am a dad, a husband a small business owner and a first time candidate running to represent NJ 08. Please list below 3 key messages of your campaign. What are the main points you want voters to remember about your goals for your time in office? I am a lifelong Democrat and first time candidate. I am running to represent the people of NJ 08. I strive to make life more affordable and prosperous for the people of my district. I believe in Universal Healthcare, strong schools, green energy, and equality of opportunity. I am a regular person. I rent my apartment, I pay for my healthcare, and my four year old son attends public school in Jersey City. My younger son is in daycare now, but will attend public school when he is able to. What areas of public policy are you personally passionate about? I believe that healthcare is a fundamental human right. Who do you look up to? Whose example would you like to follow, and why? My dad. He worked hard and always made time for his family. When I was in high school, he never missed a sporting event, even if he had to go back to the office afterwards. Is there a book, essay, film, or something else you would recommend to someone who wants to understand your political philosophy? To Kill a Mockingbird. Do the right thing, even when it is difficult. What characteristics or principles are most important for an elected official? Courage and Integrity. What qualities do you possess that you believe would make you a successful officeholder? I am down to earth and endlessly curious. I also care about my fellow Americans and making life better for everyday people. What do you believe are the core responsibilities for someone elected to this office? To use all available information to make decisions that will improve the lives of the constituents of NJ 08. What legacy would you like to leave? On the family front, I want to set my kids up to be successful and to pursue whatever they are interested in. Politically, I want to help to get people who are struggling back on the right track. For me this means drug rehab programs, prisoner rehabilitation, universal healthcare, better nutrition, and just taking better care of our citizens in general. What is the first historical event that happened in your lifetime that you remember? How old were you at the time? George Herbert Walker Bush winning the Presidency in 1988. I was 6 at the time and didn't really understand it, but I remember everyone being upset. What was your very first job? How long did you have it? I believe it was working as a councilor at a soccer camp. It lasted a week or two, and then the camp was over. I was in high school. What is your favorite book? Why? I haven't read it in forever, but To Kill a Mockingbird. I've always liked the Atticus Finch character. What was the last song that got stuck in your head? Sing 2 Skye Full of Stars. My sons are obsessed with it right now. What is something that has been a struggle in your life? Two years ago I got long covid and developed a heart condition, despite getting two Pfizer shots and a Moderna booster. I had to wear a mobile defibrillator that would attempt to shock my heart back to life if it stopped. This was a really tough time for me and my family. It was a long road back, but I'm much better now. What qualities does the U.S. House of Representatives possess that makes it unique as an institution? 2 year terms require house members to be uniquely accountable to their constituents Do you believe that it's beneficial for representatives to have previous experience in government or politics? It can be beneficial, but is not the most important characteristic. What do you perceive to be the United States' greatest challenges as a nation over the next decade? Bringing manufacturing jobs back from abroad and doubling the size of the industrial plant to do so. Do you believe that two years is the right term length for representatives? 4 years might increase productivity and decrease the emphasis on fundraising and winning elections. What are your thoughts on term limits? I would likely support 12 year term limits for both Congress and the Senate. Do you believe that compromise is necessary or desirable for policymaking? Yes. Compromise is necessary and at times desirable for policymaking. How should the U.S. House use its investigative powers? Investigative powers should be used to provide oversight of potential government abuses. What committees interest you? Education and Workforce, Ethics, Foreign Affairs, Scien, Space and Technology, Small Business and Joint Economic Committee What are your views on financial transparency and government accountability? I believe in full financial transparency of government officials. I would also vote to end active investment in the stock market.\nNote: Ballotpedia reserves the right to edit Candidate Connection survey responses.
