from u/Downtown-Prompt-6499 You have been serving on the school board for 3 years - what have you done to ensure the Payroll Tax is being collected for the benefit of the Jersey City Public Schools? The SuperPac that is funding your campaign is suing the City over the Payroll Tax. This seems to be a huge conflict of interest. The Payroll Tax would have helped alleviate the tax burden on individual property owners

The Payroll Tax is the law of the land and should be obeyed. The SuperPAC that is funding the Change for Children slate has nothing to do with the fact that the law must be followed. I want to remind everyone that according to the state of New Jersey, it is the city of Jersey City that has to enforce this law and collect the proper funds. The School Board has no role in collecting the actual tax dollars generated by the Payroll Tax. That being said, I have personally sat down with the Mayor and requested that the city do a stronger job to enforce the Payroll Tax to help ensure that the maximum amount is collected for the school district.
