A lifelong Queens resident, devoted son to his elderly parents, husband and father to a young child, Hiram has spent years showing up when others did not. Long before his campaign, he was organizing, speaking out, and doing the work, even when it was uncomfortable and came at a personal cost. For too long, Queens has been asked to accept stagnation and neglect. Critical issues like crime, affordability, failing schools, toxins in the environment, and poor quality of life have gone unaddressed and ignored. Hiram is ready to lead and address these issues together. Hope grows in Queens.
