Former Rep. Tom Suozzi (D-Glen Cove) has pledged to be a strong voice in support of Israel if he wins the Feb. 13 special election in New York’s third congressional district – something he says is needed in the Democratic Party.
Suozzi spoke to reporters via Zoom from Jerusalem, in a trip he had been planning to take for a while.
“I’ve always had a philosophy that you have to go and see what’s happening on the ground,” Suozzi said. “Whether it’s a local issue or whether it’s an international issue.”
