I love Brooklyn.
It always has been, and I hope always will be, my home. We face daunting challenges right now and I believe we need to fight like hell to make Brooklyn affordable for everyone who wants to live and stay here. Ever rising rents and real estate speculation have been displacing our neighbors for too long. It is time we take power back from real estate developers and make our City more affordable for working families –
Lower NYC Rent is my roadmap. I am running for City Council to marshal the full power of our community to build a better Brooklyn.
I have never been afraid to take on powerful interests, from machine bosses to real estate developers. In my experience, success in overcoming our current crises requires the robust activation of our community. Together, through organizing, commitment, and collective action, we can do more than bring our city back. We can achieve transformative change to address the affordability crisis, climate change, and racial justice.
