In the heart of Pennsville, Salem County, Thomas Cannavo's journey began, leading him to a life dedicated to justice and public service. With a storied career as a retired attorney and a 25-year prosecutor, Cannavo has seen firsthand the inner workings of all three branches of government while residing in New Jersey's 2nd District. Now, he is stepping into the political arena, running for Congress with a clear and unwavering mission: to prioritize people over profit and improve the lives of ordinary citizens.
Cannavo's campaign is a direct response to what he sees as the troubling dominance of corporate oligarchs and special interests in the current Congress. He believes that these forces have skewed the priorities of our representatives, leaving everyday Americans to bear the brunt of policies that favor the wealthy and powerful. With a deep sense of urgency, Cannavo is determined to shift the focus back to the needs of the people.
Central to his platform is a bold commitment to universal single-payer Medicare for All. Cannavo envisions a healthcare system where every citizen from cradle to grave has quality healthcare without co-pays, premiums or deductibles and which includes vision, hearing and dental. Long term care is also included to ensure dignity in our golden years. He argues that healthcare is a fundamental right, not a privilege, and vows to fight tirelessly to make this vision a reality.
Affordable housing is another cornerstone of Cannavo's campaign. He asserts that housing is a basic human right and that every person deserves a safe and affordable place to call home. Cannavo plans to champion policies that will ensure everyone in the 2nd District—and beyond—can achieve this basic standard of living.
As the world grapples with the pressing issue of climate change, Cannavo is committed to phasing out fossil fuels and transitioning to renewable and sustainable forms of energy. He believes that this shift is not only essential for the environment but also offers significant economic opportunities through the creation of green jobs. His vision is one of a cleaner, more sustainable future for our children and grandchildren.
Running for office for the first time, Cannavo is motivated by a profound sense of duty. He believes that ordinary citizens must step up and take action before it is too late to repair the damage inflicted on our country and our planet. He feels a deep responsibility to future generations, urging us all to consider the legacy we leave behind.
Cannavo is also critical of the two major political parties, which he refers to as the Duopoly. He argues that their failures necessitate the rise of a third party, and he firmly believes that the Green Party is best positioned to lead this charge. The Green Party, known for its commitment to peace and anti-genocide principles, aligns with Cannavo's vision of governance by and for the people.
Endorsed by Our Revolution of Ocean County, Thomas Cannavo's campaign is gaining momentum. He is not just running for office; he is running for a cause, for a future where the needs of the many outweigh the interests of the few. His message resonates with those who are tired of the status quo and ready for a representative who will fight for a fairer, more just society.
