In 2018, Mike DeCillis threw his hat in to run for Congress. By March that year, DeCillis withdrew from the Democratic primary because the DNC was already backing Max Rose.
I was interested in DeCillis in 2018. He was from Bay Ridge and was a special education teacher. Prior to that he worked as a police officer, attorney AND worked for EMS. I thought his background was interesting and he was well spoken.
But that was three years ago. DeCillis is easy to criticize Congresswoman Nicole Malliotakis, but he is silent and has not spoken out about any of the problems that politicians in our area have created due to selfishness, greed and sneakiness. We are talking about bills for lobbyists, accepting PAC money, accepting develop money and other strange happening.
DeCillis claims that he would be better than Malliotakis because he will listen to the needs of the community. (Source) DeCillis thinks our needs now in 2021 are the same as they were in 2018. If he was listening to the community, we would have seen Mike speak out at least one thing politicians have been doing. Mike hasn’t said ANYTHING about anyone but Nicole.
I let DeCillis know that we don’t need another picture-taking politician who is silent when people in his party do the wrong thing.
Terrific turnout in support of District Leader @chrismccreight at Lockyard in Bay Ridge — it was great seeing @AMBichotte, District Leader @Edu_Hermelyn, and more friends! pic.twitter.com/DqeVrodIL3

If DeCillis was able to speak out against his party, he would have challenged Chris McCreight for the District Leader seat.
McCreight ran on a platform that he was against corruption and he would not support corrupt candidates in Bay Ridge.
