The article highlights the importance of effective leadership for diverse communities represented in New York City, emphasizing the support for Andrew Cuomo as mayor. The author, the first Asian American council member from South Brooklyn, notes Cuomo's tangible contributions, particularly during the pandemic when anti-Asian sentiment surged. His initiatives, including enhancing hate crime responses and establishing the Asian American and Pacific Islander Commission, demonstrate a commitment to addressing community needs beyond superficial gestures. This leadership approach focuses on real results, fairness, and dignity for all New Yorkers.
As the first Asian American elected to represent South Brooklyn, I know how crucial it is for communities like mine to have leadership that listens.
Cuomo didn't just pay lip service to the Asian American community. He made structural investments that improved our lives and strengthened our sense of safety.
