Running for Re- Election

I can't believe time has gone by so fast. I remember so vividly when we won our election for NYS Committee/District Leader and we are here ,once again. I would like everyone to know that I have worked extremely hard to make this the greatest district ever since I've been elected with many initiatives such as my Legislative Task Force, where I have gathered a few members of our district to write and submit citizen legislation to be reviewed by and potentially introduced as a bill, created and taught a civics course for middle school aged children called the Fundamentals of Citizenship, have honored several dedicated locals residents for the commitment to our neighborhoods, organized monthly Democratic Club meetings for the 57th Assembly District to engage in local politics, organized a Town Hall meeting on Public Safety, Sponsored Community Movie Nights, Co-Sponsored a Mother's Day Brunch, Selected 5 Supreme Court Judges and One Civil Court Judge, Spoke at press conferences for the Bring Back Our Girls Campaign, spoke at press conferences to save Interfaith Medical Center and so much more. As your District Leader, I am proud to announce several endorsements: The Democratic Party of Brooklyn, Democratic Chairman Frank Seddio, NYC Public Advocate Letitia James, NYC Comptroller Scott Stringer, Brooklyn Borough President Eric Adams, Congressman Hakeem Jeffries, Senator Velmanette Montgomery, Assemblyman Walter Mosley, Councilman Robert Cornegy, District Leader Betty Ann Canizio, District Leader Kevin Peter Carroll, District Leader Jesse Hamilton, District Leader Ari Kagan, Councilwoman Darlene Mealy, Lambda Independent Democrats, Marilyn Mosley & the Progressive Association for Political Action, Labor Unions DC9 Buildings & Allied Trades, Operating Engineers, Pastor Carl Leach, Bishop Carl E.
