Margot E. Rosenthal

DEMOCRATIC

Rosenthal, 63, is running on the Democratic line. A longtime nurse practitioner, midwife and Hauppauge resident, she ran unsuccessfully to become town receiver of taxes in 2015.

ISSUES:

• She plans to improve mental health services for people battling addictions, veterans and youths who may be susceptible to violence.
• Upgrade water systems and transition to a �green economy� by bolstering tax incentives for electric vehicles, solar panels and wind farms. Improve disaster and resiliency planning in anticipation of future storms.
• Increase affordable housing and incentives for first-time home buyers. Continue to fight federal cap on state and local tax reductions (SALT) as a way to help Suffolk property owners.
