Brittany Ramos DeBarros….If Only Andrew Gounardes Didn’t Vote to Gerrymander Our District
Brittany Ramos DeBarros was on Channel 1 tonight. She said that she is able to speak to the everyday people because she understand the struggles that working class people go through because she and her family struggled.
Brittany Ramos DeBarros was in the army from 2011 – 2019. She went to Afghanistan and served as a strategic communication officer. When Brittany came home from the Afghanistan, she realized soldiers were lied to. She became an activist for veterans. Today, a bill for Veteran’s was voted down in Congress and Brittany was upset by it.
Brittany believes that she can energize many different types of community because she represents many groups of people. She was sincere and likeable. If you want to speak with her, she will be in Bay Ridge on Sunday:
When Brittany was asked about Max Rose, she didn’t talk about Max Rose at all, she spoke about corruption and problems in the community that she was outraged by. Very classy and professional move! Brittany used that time to passionately speak out against poor living conditions for families with low incomes and veteran health care too.
Brittany could have spoken about Rose – she campaigned for him last time. Max Rose became the typical politician and was afraid to speak out against corruption in our district. Britney isn’t afraid.
Brittany Ramos DeBarros chances at winning this seat were hurt by her own party. Senator Andrew Gounardes voted for district maps that gerrymandered our district, even though Gounardes spoke out against gerrymandering for years.
The maps that Gounardes voted in favor of were was so bad that the courts ruled they were unconstitutional and ordered a master to remake the lines. (Info)
When the Master redid the congressional district map, he put more Republicans in the district. Too bad Andrew Gounardes didn’t have the integrity to do the job right, so that the district was fair.
