.em4assembly is exactly what North Brooklyn needs as we enter a new decade.
Mark your calendar for June 23, 2020 — that is, the day of New York's primary election. Since 1973, the 50th District has been represented by the same incumbent, but Emily Gallagher is hoping to change that. With a platform that champions women, survivors, and more, she's exactly what North Brooklyn needs as we enter a new decade. And after reading this interview, you're sure to agree.
We’re facing down a transportation crisis, a housing crisis, and a climate crisis — and we need real fighters in Albany to tackle these existential challenges. #cf_4 .cf-btn:after { border-radius: 0px } .cf-content-wrap, .cf-form-wrap{ padding:5px; } div#cf_4 { margin-bottom: 20px; } .cf-content-text.cf-col { padding-left: 20px;padding-right:20px; } There are so many challenges facing North Brooklyn but the three biggest issues I plan to champion are transportation, housing, and the environment.
My community also deserves a healthy environment. From contaminated development sites to the fumes off the BQE, we still struggle with the toxic legacy of industry. Polluters aren’t being made to pay for what they’ve done--and when they do, the money is insufficient and gobbled up by the general fund. Meanwhile, the threat of catastrophic climate change draws ever closer.
I respect and value the public service of my opponent. I know he cares about the district. But you can’t stay in office for that long without accommodating the political machine and the powerful interests that have made this city so difficult for anyone who’s not rich. And frankly, our community is significantly more progressive than its representation in Albany. I’m a fighter, not a follower, and I won’t be afraid to piss off the very people he’s taken money from over his long career.
