Issue Position: Discrimination

Issue Position

Date: Jan. 1, 2020

Here in our own neighborhoods, swastikas are appearing, and white supremacy groups are looking for recruits. We cannot be silent. We must speak up and take action. In Bedford, the Town Board adopted a resolution condemning anti-Semitism and pledging to adopt a plan to fight against it and all forms of bigotry and prejudice.

Chris believes that we need to change our legal system and our social structures that have allowed racism and prejudice to continue as a part of our society -- voter suppression, disproportionate access to health care, erosion of the rights of those in Labor, lack of equal access to education, and the crying need for affordable housing. Chris believes that, with the government working alongside activists and allies, we can begin to heal and transform our community.
