Salvatore Padellaro’s Policy Proposals for NY-5

Affordable Housing & Cost of Living

Affordable Housing & Cost of Living

Affordable Housing & Cost of Living

Queens families are being priced out of their neighborhoods as rents rise and wages fall behind.


In Congress, I will fight for stronger tenant protections, expanded affordable housing, and real investment in working-class communities.


No one should be forced out of their home simply because they cannot keep up with rising costs.

Small Business & Jobs

Affordable Housing & Cost of Living

Affordable Housing & Cost of Living

Small businesses are the backbone of Queens. Having worked in hospitality my entire career, I understand what it takes to keep doors open.


In Congress, I will push for low-interest loans, tax relief for small businesses, and better access to capital so local entrepreneurs can grow and create good-paying jobs.

Immigrant Rights & Working Families

Affordable Housing & Cost of Living

Immigrant Rights & Working Families

Queens is one of the most diverse districts in the country, home to families from every corner of the world. As the son of immigrants, I understand how deeply immigration policy affects working families.


I will fight for a pathway to citizenship, protect DACA, and defend the rights of immigrant workers who contribute every day to our city and economy.

Policies Continued…

Public Safety & Justice

Transit & Infrastructure

Transit & Infrastructure

Every family in Queens deserves to feel safe at home, at work, and in their community. Public safety is not only about policing. It is about prevention, fairness, and trust.


I will support community-based solutions, youth programs, and reforms that keep neighborhoods safe while protecting civil rights.

Transit & Infrastructure

Transit & Infrastructure

Transit & Infrastructure

Queens depends on reliable public transit, yet too often trains are delayed, buses are overcrowded, and stations remain inaccessible.


In Congress, I will fight for federal investment in modern transit systems and infrastructure upgrades so Queens riders get the service they deserve.

Climate Action

Transit & Infrastructure

Climate Action

Rising sea levels, flooding, and extreme heat are already affecting Queens. Climate action is a local issue that impacts our homes, health, and future.


I will push for clean energy jobs, resilient infrastructure, and federal investment to protect communities vulnerable to flooding across Queens.
