When Does Senator Gounardes Work For Bay Ridge?
Today, there was a rally in Bay Ridge against the Nazis (See here) and a walk over the bridge to let Jews know that anti-Semitic acts won’t be tolerated here.
Assemblywoman Frontus joined residents in Bay Ridge and Councilman Brannan joined the march over the bridge. Gounardes and Malliotakis were not seen at either.
Senator Gounardes’ office was closed on Friday for staff training. Was it only open one day in the past two weeks?
Gounardes’ office was closed from Monday, December 23rd to Wednesday, January 1st.
Before that, Gounardes was away for his honeymoon. See here
At the end of November and beginning of December, Gounardes was upstate (see here) touring schools and fire departments in Buffalo. (See here) Does that senator want Andrew Gounardes to make some bills to pad some paychecks up there?
Yep, that’s a lot of time that Senator Gounardes was not here. Of course he needs some time off, but his office should be open and he should be present after vacation!
Maybe that’s why Gounardes still hasn’t hung a banner outside of his office?
Ironically, Gounardes was asked about that today:
Property tax reform doesn’t look like it will be a priority to Senator Gounardes this year. Gounardes is STILL WAITING FOR MAYOR de BLASIO to do something.
Andrew Gounardes has the ability to write a bill to freeze our taxes, but refuses to do it.
Gounardes is having a fundraiser this week….I bet he will be present for that!
Is it possible for Bay Ridge to get a senator who actually cares about Bay Ridge and wants to help the people here?
