Democrats in Orange County's District 4: Please vote for Lujan on June 22!

I urge my fellow Democrats in Orange County Legislative District 4 (that’s YOU, City of Newburgh and Town of Newburgh!) to join me in voting for our incumbent, Kevindaryan Lujan, in the primary on June 22. (Early in-person voting begins at Newburgh’s Activity Center, 401 Washington Street, on June 12.)

As a progressive activist, Lujan is accessible and responsive. He articulates the people’s positions on issues such as:

TRANSPORTATION: He is working to have buses running to and from the right places at the right times, to connect people to employment zones.

HOUSING: He advocates for affordable housing, to help people stay in their homes with the help of federal funds.

DIVERSITY: He is a leading voice for training on equity and inclusion in hiring for public jobs.

HEALTHCARE: He collaborates with organizations such as RECAP, Nobody Leaves Mid-Hudson and others to achieve racial equity in healthcare, throughout this pandemic and beyond.

Lujan is not only Orange County’s youngest legislator, he’s also our best. Please vote in the primary to keep him working for us all.

Kevindaryan Lujan’s the Man for the City and Town of Newburgh: Please VOTE for him in the Democratic Primary, coming up on June 22!

Sometimes You Just Gotta Name What You're Feeling

Merriam-Webster notes that in the first three days after President Trump’s COVID-19 infection was announced, there was a jump of 30,500% (yep, you’re reading that right) in the number of lookups for the word, “Schadenfreude.” Check it out: https://bit.ly/3niByJX

And, unrelated, this news reminded me of an old New Yorker cartoon I’ve had taped to the wall of my home office for a long while.

My New Poster for my Front Porch Window

My Republican friends have been begging me, since summer, to take down my “Impeach Trump” poster from my front porch window. I am happy (so very, very happy) to announce that I have finally done so.

Here’s my new sign in my front porch window. Hope you like it!
