Brooklyn Congressman Hakeem Jeffries threw his support to Maya Wiley in her bid to become the next mayor of New York City during a press conference in Brooklyn on Sunday.
Jeffries believes that Wiley, a civil rights attorney and alumna of the de Blasio Administration, is best positioned to help New York City overcome the COVID-19 pandemic and bring about systemic change in city government.
“This is a change election and Maya Wiley is a change candidate,” Jeffries said. “It’s time to send a brilliant and compassionate mom to City Hall to clean up the mess left behind by the pandemic.”
