Candidate: US House of Representatives / District 06

Grace Meng (D)

(Incumbent)

Candidate Site

Grace Meng was born, raised, and now lives in Queens with her husband and two sons and has represented NY-6 since 2013. The daughter of immigrants, Grace advocates for inclusive policies that benefit Queens’ vulnerable and overlooked communities. By passing countless pieces of legislation to improve the lives of working families and bringing hundreds of millions of federal dollars back to New York, she was ranked one of the most effective legislators in the Democratic Party, rose to be the vice ranking member of the Appropriations Committee, and serves as the chair of the Congressional Asian Pacific American Caucus.
