Daniel Dromm is a teacher and democratic district leader who is no novice when it comes to city politics. We believe that with Mr. Dromm’s experience and fresh ideas, he will be a good councilman, a voice for his district and will have a better relationship with veterans than Ms. Sears.
From NYC Veterans:
Veterans returning home from active service often face an array of issues during their transition from a military to a civilian lifestyle. While it's understood that most legislation to assist veterans usually comes through the federal government; when an individual returns home, they return to their local communities and back to some issues they left behind. As such, they find themselves looking to city agencies and local services to assist them. Therefore, our local government has a duty and an obligation to step up and do more than just thank veterans for their service.
We encourage all veterans to become active in their communities, to make their voices heard and to make a difference regarding issues that affect not only the veteran's community, but their local community as well. Most importantly, we remind all veterans to VOTE on September 15.
City Council, District 25 – "The incumbent is Councilmember Helen Sears. She voted “YES” to extend term limits. Encompassing one of the most diverse districts in the city, Ms. Sears has little to no record of supporting or assisting veterans over the course of her 8 years in the council. Daniel Dromm is a teacher and democratic district leader who is no novice when it comes to city politics. We believe that with Mr. Dromm’s experience and fresh ideas, he will be a good councilman, a voice for his district and will have a better relationship with veterans than Ms. Sears. Mr. Dromm is endorsed by the New York Times.
We recommend Daniel Dromm."
