Mayoral candidates sign Pledge to Stand with Southern Brooklyn
Some mayoral candidates have signed the Pledge to Stand with Southern Brooklyn, promising to fight against the proposed Southwest Brooklyn Waste Transfer Station.
As this paper went to press, former Councilmember Sal Albanese and Pastor Erick Salgado, who are Democrats; business mogul John Catsimatidis, a Republican; and Green Party candidate Tony Gronowicz were the only mayoral candidates to sign the pledge.
In addition, former Comptroller Bill Thompson, former Congressmember Anthony Weiner and Comptroller John Liu, all Democrats, have expressed interest in signing the pledge, but have not done so yet. Weiner had expressed opposition to the transfer station when he was still in office.
