Revitalize the American Economy & Create Jobs

Our economy is facing its greatest challenge since the Great Depression, and gridlock and indecision in Washington D.C. is stalling our recovery.  Jun will focus on creating new jobs now at the same time that we plan a long term focus on technological, high-value manufacturing and innovative jobs to compete in the 21st century global economy.  He will also focus on entrepreneurship and small business promotion where most of the new jobs are created today.  As Mayor of Edison, Jun’s administration planned and negotiated the largest redevelopment project in Edison’s history along with many other projects that created thousands of good paying jobs.  He has a record of creating an environment conducive to business promotion and job-creation.  He will bring this record of accomplishment to Congress to help reverse our current course and strengthen America’s economic future.

 

Provide a World Class Education for Every Child

When Jun’s parents immigrated to America, they knew that a good education was vital to Jun and his sister’s success in living out the American dream.  Improving public education is the core reason why Jun entered public service.  He will improve early childhood education, invest in teacher training and professional development, and set the highest standards for our children.  He will also focus on a national mobilization to improve STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering & Mathematics) education.  At the New Jersey Department of Education, he helped create the NJ Standards Measurement and Resource for Teaching (NJ SMART) program to develop a consistent set of performance metrics to ensure teachers and administrators knew where children were learning and where they were not, so we can better direct resources.
