I am writing this letter in support of John Avlon for U.S. Congress and urge all District 1 Democrats to vote for him in the upcoming primary.
Our nation is at a crossroads and every vote will count as never before.
As Democrats, we face an easy choice on June 25. Our pick needs to be smart and knowledgeable about how governing gets done. They need to be decent, honest, hardworking and persevering. Most important of all, they must be electable and have the heart and charisma required to beat Nick LaLota and help the Democrats take back the House.
With these requirements in mind, there is only one choice, and that choice is John Avlon.

Working DiligentlyOn Thursday, I attended the Southampton Village Board meeting on traffic and realized I had previously misspoken. I said the trustees had taken only “baby steps” in addressing this issue. I was wrong. The truth is, they have been working...
Open Space ImpactI am hoping you will understand the environmental impact of what natural open space, near watering holes, does for our native wildlife. I can only speak professionally as a New York State licensed expert for our state-protected “species of special...
