This comes from former police officer, founding member of 100 Blacks in Law Enforcement Who Care, and State Senator Eric Adams:

Dear Neighbor,

I’ve represented the people of Boro Park, Park Slope and Windsor Terrace (among others) in the State Senate since 2006. Before that, I served the people of New York City as a police officer for over 20 years.

As a cop, I’ve dealt with some of New York’s worst criminals. As a senator, I’ve dealt with lobbyists, Albany bigwigs, and greedy power players – and let me tell you, sometimes they’re just as bad.

In Albany, I’ve stood up to the power-obsessed, self-dealing insiders and focused on serving my constituents. In City Hall, we need someone who will do the same thing.

We need Josh Skaller.

Josh Skaller has the grit you need to make it in City Hall. I saw it in Josh from the first time we met – he has a fierce resolve that belies his friendly nature and his easygoing smile.

When Josh sees corruption, he doesn’t sit on the sidelines or hem and haw. Josh stands up and fights. He doesn’t wait to see what other people are saying. He doesn’t worry about the political ramifications of speaking up. Josh does what’s right, and he does it for the right reasons.

I know that leadership means working with people from all viewpoints and backgrounds to make things happen. My district is one of the most diverse in New York State.

Josh has deep support all over the district – from Park Slope to Boro Park. He has campaigned vigorously everywhere. He is going to win this election because voters from all backgrounds have met him and have seen his passion and his strength.

Some voters in Boro Park, for example, may disagree with Josh on social issues. But many people there will support him because they see that he does not change his message when he mingles with a different crowd. And they see that he has what it takes to effectively work on behalf of everyone in the 39th Council District.

We need Josh Skaller in City Hall because he will fight for our neighborhoods and deliver the progressive reform we need.

I’m asking you to vote for Josh Skaller on September 15.

Regards,

ERIC ADAMS
New York State Senator
20th District -- Park Slope, Windsor Terrace, Boro Park, Crown Heights, Flatbush, Prospect Heights, Sunset Park
