The community is invited to join City Council Democratic Nominee Crystal Hudson for a Meet and Greet event at the Jewish Children’s Museum in Crown Heights.
The event is being hosted by community activist Devorah Halberstam and will give an opportunity for residents to hear Ms. Hudson’s vision for the district and to ask questions and share thoughts on the issues facing the community.
The event will take place Tuesday, October 19 at 7 pm at the Jewish Children’s Museum.
Crystal Hudson will be the Democratic nominee for our upcoming election on November 2nd. She will be taking City Council Member Laurie Cumbo’s seat representing the 35th Council District. A former city staffer who has worked for City Council Member Cumbo and the Public Advocate, Hudson beat Michael Hollingsworth, a tenant organizer, who was in second place after other candidates were eliminated.
Halberstam encourages residents to take advantage of this opportunity to discuss the many issues in the city.
“This is our Crown Heights community,” Halberstam says. “The City Council decides on many issues in the city – affordable housing, sanitation, safety, education and culture. It is our opportunity as a community to listen and ask questions about Ms. Hudson’s vision and platforms on issues. It is our chance to share who we are and our concerns.”
The Jewish community of Crown Heights actively supported Hudson, who thanked the Chasidic community for their support on election night, saying she is “proud to have the orthodox and Chasidic community on my team,” to applause and shouts of “Mazel Tov!” and “L’Chaim!”
Welll let’s hope and pray for Crystal to be elected and maybe win the votes okay good luck to all of us will there be refreshments in the meeting today? Thanks for your help stay well.
There is power in the numbers – let’s show Ms. Hudson that we care deeply about Crown Heights & want her help and support to improve our quality of life here.
