While Brooklyn Mourns The Death of Two Children, Politicians Take Photos with Speeding Brad Lander

Two children are dead and Andrew Gounardes thought this was the time to promote another lobbyist project.

On Saturday, Natasha Saada and her two daughters, Deborah and Diana were killed by a woman speeding on Ocean Parkway in Midwood. The woman had many tickets and a suspended license.

Senator Andrew Gounardes thought having a press conference with Brad Lander, a politician who was caught speeding repeatedly was appropriate.

How disrespectful can you get? Does Andrew Gounardes think people have forgotten?

Andrew Gounardes failed to speak out against his friends Brad Lander and Justin Brannan speeding. Both politicians were caught repeatedly by red light cameras.

Not one politician who was standing on the steps for the photo-opt spoke out when Justin Brannan was caught speeding 16 times through red light cameras. https://nypost.com/2021/07/16/speed-cameras-caught-councilman-justin-brannan-16-times/

This is a joke to politicians – that’s why Andrew Gounardes keeps using lobbyists solutions. He’s been in office for seven years and the streets of Bay Ridge are far worse.

NYC Retirees – Justin Brannan Should Have Sponsored Intro 1096 By Now

Councilman Justin Brannan told us he supports unions. But Brannan doesn’t support retired union workers. Justin Brannan has not signed on to Intro 1096 to protect traditional Medicare for NYC retirees. See bill…

https://legistar.council.nyc.gov/LegislationDetail.aspx?ID=6902538&GUID=935D7515-AC4A-4DA1-B73F-DD1C0F0F4582&Options=&Search=

While NYC lost their fight – the healthcare issue keeps coming up because unions are making changes which can affect Retirees co-pays and deductibles. So 1096 is necessary to stop that.

Richie Barsamian is running for Bay Ridge’s NYC Council seat. He released a statement of support for Intro 1096.

Ritchie understands that Medicare Advantage is not the same as traditional Medicare and that thousands of NYC Retirees living in Brooklyn are entitled to the plan they have.
