NICK PERRY INTRODUCED TO SENATE FOREIGN RELATIONS COMMITTEE: United States Senate Majority Leader, Charles “Chuck” Schumer earlier this week introduced Jamaican-born and Brooklyn Assemblymember Nick Perry to the US Senate Foreign Relations Committee as nominee for US Ambassador to Jamaica. Nick Perry, who currently represents the 58th Assembly District in Brooklyn, would be the first ever Jamaican-born person to serve as its American Ambassador.
Commending his nominee, Schumer said, “He has a knack for doing politics the old-fashioned way: shaking hands, showing up at every event, and just listening to people from everyday life. Nick is an immigrant, he is a veteran, and a lifelong public servant, and he represents the best of what America is all about.
