Animal rights group picks its favorite council candidates
Dogs and cats can’t vote, but the people who care about them do. And they’re making their voices heard in the various council races around the borough.
New Yorkers for Clean Livable And Safe Streets (NYCLASS), an animal rights organization, has announced its list of endorsements in Brooklyn City Council races.
The candidates receiving the organization’s backing are Councilman Mathieu Eugene (D-Kensington), Councilman Stephen Levin (D-Williamsburg-Greenpoint), Councilman Brad Lander (D-Park Slope) Councilman Vincent Gentile (D-Bay Ridge-Dyker Heights-Bensonhurst) and candidate Laurie Cumbo, who is running for the council seat in Fort Greene-Clinton Hill.
