Please Pass This Urgent Message On To Anyone you know on Long Island, New York
Vote Steve Bellone For Suffolk County NY Executive and
Re-Elect Phil Nolan Islip Town Supervisor
To All New York State Residents From The Empire State Pride Agenda:
http://www.prideagenda.org/Campaigns-and-Elections/2011-Election-Center.aspx
Tomorrow, Tuesday, November 8, 2011, is Election Day in New York
State. The Pride Agenda has made endorsements in five local races and
we’re urging you to spread the word and vote for these candidates if
you’re in their district:
Brad Bender - Council member in the Town of Southampton
Sandy Frankel - Monroe County Executive
Nick Haddad - Mayor of Hudson
Don Moore - Common Council President of Hudson
Michael Sabatino – Yonkers City Council, 3rd district
We are confident these candidates will champion our issues and advance
equality and justice for LGBT New Yorkers and our families.
The Pride Agenda, in its 20-year history, has worked broadly in New
York State’s electoral politics. This legacy of electoral work has
helped make the Pride Agenda and the LGBT community a strong political
force in New York State.
We believe that every candidate and elected official can play a
valuable role in raising the profile of the issues that are important
to the LGBT community. Local elections are important in building a
base of support across the state that is committed to our issues. Many
local officials then run for state legislative or even statewide
office, making this bench of candidates critical. This work takes time
but the payoff is great. We have achieved more than 70 governmental
victories as a direct result of having strong allies in elected office
and endorsements have proven to be one of our most effective tools we
have for educating candidates and building relationships from early in
their campaigns.
Our endorsement criteria are rigorous, and the first step in being
considered is completing and submitting our questionnaire. All of our
endorsed candidates gave positive responses regarding the many issues
we have identified as part of our agenda. This includes support for a
statewide human rights law to prohibit discrimination based on gender
identity and expression, and state funding for community-based
programming to meet the specific health and human service needs of
LGBT people in areas like mental health, substance abuse, domestic
violence and homeless services.
Help us elect these local candidates who will advance LGBT equality
and justice. Vote for Brad Bender, Sandy Frankel, Nick Haddad, Don
Moore and Michael Sabatino on Tuesday, November 8! Let your friends in
these districts know about these candidates’ pledges to stand by our
community. The addition of these voices will help ensure New York
State continues a proud tradition of leadership on issues that are of
concern to us.
We know we can count on you to support the Empire State Pride Agenda
Inc.’s Political Action Committee so we can continue to support
pro-LGBT candidates in our continued march towards equality and
justice.
With gratitude and hope,

Ross D. Levi
Executive Director
Empire State Pride Agenda
