Felder makes house calls to meet constituents
Doctors don’t make house calls anymore, but apparently state Sen. Simcha Felder does.
Felder (D-Borough Park-Midwood) has launched a “Senator On Site” program, which he is calling “SOS,” to tackle quality-of-life issues in his senate district. As the program’s name implies, Felder pops up at various sites all over the district to solve problems onsite.
Felder introduced the “SOS” last month in a newsletter he sent to constituents. Felder said that since then, nearly 100 people have contacted his office for help with problems with potholes, broken street lights, tree stumps or broken sidewalks outside their homes or in their neighborhoods.
