United States Senate Majority Leader, Charles “Chuck” Schumer on Tuesday introduced Jamaican-born New York City Assemblyman Nick Perry to the US Senate Foreign Relations Committee as nominee for US Ambassador to Jamaica.
“It is my honor to introduce a proud New Yorker, a dear and longtime friend, we’ve known each other for 30 years, and fellow Brooklynite, Nick Perry to serve as the next US ambassador to Jamaica,” said Democrat Schumer, who, in October last year, initially announced his support for Perry for the position.
