Legislative Priorities:

In the following area, please explain in a total of 100 words or less, your top two or three priorities if elected. If they require additional funding for implementation, please explain how you would obtain this funding.
Many problems we face in NJ can be tied back to political corruption. We need term limits on all elected officials. We need ranked choice voting. We need ballot referendums. Becoming a public representative should be an altruistic endeavor not a way for lawyers and affluent people to further enrich themselves at the expense of the people. I am from NJ and I care about NJ. Vote Responsibly. Vote Gran.
