Candidate: New York City Council / District 02

Harvey Epstein (D)

Candidate Site

Harvey Epstein has dedicated nearly three decades to building stronger communities. Elected to the New York State Assembly in 2018, Harvey has passed over 50 bills into law, prioritizing tenant protections and affordable housing.

Before joining the Assembly, Harvey served 14 years on Community Board 3. He was also a parent leader for many years. As a tenant member of the Rent Guidelines Board, Harvey helped achieve the first-ever rent freeze for one-year leases.

Harvey is now running for City Council to tackle the housing and climate crises, improve mental health care, invest in our youth, and fight for people with disabilities.
