Candidate: New York State Senate / District 27

Grace Lee (D)

Candidate Site

Grace Lee is the current Assemblymember for District 65. A daughter of immigrants, mother of three, and longtime community organizer, she has spent her career fighting for Lower Manhattan families. Before taking office, she organized residents to hold powerful real estate developers accountable and helped deaf tenants fight back against an abusive landlord. Since taking office, she has delivered real results for working families, tenants, and small businesses — passing legislation, securing millions of dollars for communities, and resolving hundreds of constituent cases. Known for results-driven leadership, she’s running for State Senate to bring that same commitment to more New Yorkers.
