RELEASE: NYC New Liberals Endorse Mark Levine for New York City Comptroller
NEW YORK, N.Y. – Today, the NYC New Liberals, a local chapter of the Center for New Liberalism, announced their endorsement of Manhattan Borough President Mark Levine for New York City Comptroller.
“I’m honored to have the support of the NYC New Liberals - a group that’s so committed to solving New York’s toughest challenges,” said Mark Levine. “They know how desperately we need to build more housing, improve transit, and modernize government with better technology. That’s how we make this city work better for everyone - and I can’t wait to get to work together!”
Throughout his career — including his time on the New York City Council and now as Borough President — Levine has been one of the city’s strongest and most effective advocates for pragmatic, pro-housing policies, easily earning the endorsement of the NYC New Liberals.
“Mark has been a housing champion, a supporter of congestion pricing and transit improvement, and has stood out for his work to elevate pro-housing voices to NYC’s community boards,” said NYC New Liberals President Tim Burke. “We are excited to be endorsing Mark today, and our chapter members are ready to help elect him as the next comptroller of this great city.”
As the June primary approaches, the NYC New Liberals will be knocking on doors, making calls, and mobilizing support for Mark Levine, as well as other candidates on their endorsement slate — including Jess Coleman and Ben Wetzler for City Council.
