Jackson told the Brooklyn Daily Eagle that education and senior care were her top campaign priorities. She said, "I believe that we need afterschool programs from ages 13 to 16, instead of building juvenile facilities. Moreover, I'm going to advocate for a stronger social security and Medicare safety net for our seniors."[1]
She also told the Daily Eagle, "In addition to all of this, our community and the fine men in blue need to come together. We are going to do just that with a basketball game between the NYPD and the community. This, on top of expanding school choice for students, I believe will strengthen our communities. Lastly, tenants and landlords should band together to fight for property tax cuts and better water tax rates."[1]
