“As the daughter of immigrants—my mother from Mexico and my father from Syria—I know what it takes to build a life in a new home. As a working parent, I understand the daily sacrifices families make to care for their children while keeping up with the rising cost of living in our city.”
(Campaign website (samanthaforqueens.com)) “And through my years as a tenant organizer, I’ve seen firsthand the unlivable conditions too many New Yorkers are forced to endure. But I’ve also seen how much power we have when we organize together.”
(Campaign website (samanthaforqueens.com)) “Queens was built by working class New Yorkers from all over the world. I’m running to make sure the people made our communities can afford to remain in them and benefit from the fruits of their labor.”
