Assembly member Andrew Hevesi of District 28 — representing Forest Hills, Rego Park, Richmond Hill, Glendale, Kew Gardens, Ridgewood and Middle Village — has a new challenger in the Democratic primary taking place in late June. 

Ethan Felder, a lifelong resident of Forest Hills, has been a labor lawyer for the past six years, representing groups like transit workers, firefighters and healthcare workers — what he likes to call “our essential union families.”
