John, Congressman George Santos claimed he was Jewish. He claimed his grandparents survived the Holocaust and that his mother survived the September 11th terrorist attacks in New York City. He claimed he graduated from college as a star volleyball player, worked for Goldman Sachs, and ran a foundation that rescued 2500 dogs and cats. These claims were lies — all of them. And that doesn’t even scratch the surface of the web of brazen lies Santos told to get elected. George Santos is a disgrace. He’s an embarrassment to our district, state, and country. And now, he’s facing 13 federal charges for crimes including money laundering and fraud. That’s why I’ve announced my run for Congress to replace him. My name is Anna Kaplan, and I’m asking for your support. Will you pitch in $25 or more -- split with Blue Amp Action -- to help me send George Santos into political retirement? DONATE NOW >> I was born in Iran to a Jewish family. My family faced religious persecution, so at age 13, my parents put me on a plane, not knowing when -- or if -- they’d see me again. I landed in New York and found a place where women had real rights and could determine their futures. I graduated from college and law school and met my husband, Darren. I ran for Town Council and won. And when our state legalized gay marriage, and the town clerk refused to perform the ceremonies, I proudly stepped in to perform them. Next, I ran for New York State Senate, unseated a well-funded Republican, flipped the seat, and flipped the chamber to give Democrats control for the first time in decades. In the Senate, I sponsored and passed bills codifying Roe v. Wade and banning untraceable ghost guns. Now, I’m running for Congress to provide real representation to the people of New York because the truth is, Santos’ lies aren’t even the worst thing about him. Santos is a Trump-supporting, election-denying, anti-choice, and pro-assault rifle disgrace to our district. He doesn’t represent our values, and I’m committed to defeating him next November. But that’s only going to happen with your support. So today, I’m asking: Will you split $25 between Blue Amp Action and my campaign to help me defeat George Santos? DONATE NOW >> My husband and I have spent 30 years here. We’ve raised our daughters here. It’s our home. This district voted for Joe Biden in 2020, and it’s time this district’s representative in Congress reflected our values Let’s win this thing, Anna Kaplan |
