Candidate: New York State Assembly / District 030

Brandon Castro (R) (C)

Candidate Site

Brandon Castro is a Queens native and son of Ecuadorian immigrants, educated in local public schools and a CUNY graduate. A public servant and former NYC Small Business Services liaison, he has supported small businesses and grassroots campaigns.
While families sacrifice, Albany rewards itself. Graduates face a hiring crisis, costs rise, and quality of life is slipping. He is building a coalition to demand reform and expand opportunity. Castro aims to grow skills and jobs, build smart and safe, support arts and culture, and deliver budget and education reform across Maspeth, Woodside, Elmhurst, and Jackson Heights. Who Can? Castro Can!
