Special Guest Liz Krueger
Since her election as Roosevelt Island’s state senator, Krueger has been active working on reforming RIOC’s board and operations. She’s prodded board chair RuthAnne Visnauskas to engage with residents, and she facilitated the appointment of reform-minded board members.
For the Thursday meeting, she will focus on getting Democrats elected in November. But her support of the Equal Rights Amendment on this year’s ballot will take center stage.
About the Four Freedoms Democratic Club
According to the club’s website…
On January 6th, 1941, President Franklin D. Roosevelt spoke of the four freedoms inherent to all mankind: Freedom of Speech, Freedom of Worship, Freedom from Want, and Freedom from Fear.
The Four Freedoms Democratic Club seeks to extend his vision into the 21st Century and is dedicated to providing an active, progressive Democratic organization in the 76th Assembly District of New York State.
The Committee Man
Committees are supposed to be where outcomes are shaped. They are meant to be the place where questions slow decisions down, where competing interests surface, and where public responsibility is exercised before anything reaches a formal vote.
