BYD is proud to announce that we've endorsed Public Advocate Jumaane Williams for governor and Ana Maria Archila for lieutenant governor in this year's Democratic primary election!
Both candidates have strong track records of advocating for the most vulnerable members of our community, and have bold plans to tackle the crises of housing, public safety and inequality impacting not just young people in Brooklyn, but residents across the state.
We look forward to supporting them!

As you've likely heard by now, New York's redistricting process gotten complicated. This week, a court-appointed special master unveiled a slate of newly-drawn congressional and State Senate districts, three weeks after the state’s highest court declared the map drawn by state legislators unconstitutional.
