The bilingual forum on March 1 is set to feature five candidates in the 2025 NYC mayoral race against Eric Adams. Hosted by Rev. Kirsten John Foy, it aims to engage with the Latino community through discussions on significant issues like sanctuary city status, affordability, public health, and safety. Foy emphasized the importance of understanding the challenges faced by vulnerable populations due to harsh policies. The forum seeks to connect community members with candidates and enhance dialogue on pressing matters that impact daily lives, all while celebrating the diverse fabric of New York City's immigrant communities.
The bilingual forum aims to connect the community to the mayoral candidates and spark discourse over hot-button issues like the city's sanctuary city status and affordability.
This first-of-its-kind bilingual forum will accomplish three goals: connecting the community to those that seek to lead our city, enhancing public discourse, and affirming the immigrant community's rights.
Rev. Kirsten John Foy emphasized that it is critical for the city to understand the stakes for vulnerable communities facing aggressive and dehumanizing policies.
Foy stated, 'No matter our lands of origins we are all New Yorkers!', underscoring the unity and resilience of the city's diverse population.
