Issue Position: Corruption

Issue Position

James is the only candidate who will fight to clean up corruption in Albany and make sure that our leaders are putting Hudson Valley residents ahead of their own bottom lines. James helped pass legislation to strip taxpayer-funded pensions away from politicians who are convicted of a felony. Unlike his opponent, James also supports a ban on outside income for state legislators as well as efforts to remove big money from campaigns.
​
During his time in the Assembly, James also authored legislation to hold real estate transactions more accountable by requiring anonymous LLCs that purchase residential property to disclose who their real owners are - because everyone deserves to know who their neighbors are.
