Why Does Kayla Santosuosso Call a Person Donating $500 To Her Campaign a Captain?
Kayla Santosuosso is running for Bay Ridge’s NYC Council seat.
Kayla’s campaign fundraiser advertisement listed hosts and donation levels. Kayla’s husband is listed as a host. I’ve never seen a politician list their spouse on the host list.
Notice that someone donating $500 to Kayla’s campaign is a “captain.” (See below)
That about sums up Bay Ridge’s and Coney’s Island’s problems – we have too many captains in our community.
In November, Kayla campaigned for Chris McCreight. Chris McCreight told people he was against a casino in Coney Island. McCreight is listed in the lobbyist database for being lobbied by TSG Coney Island Entertainment Holding Co. (More info)
Chris McCreight also accepted a donations to his campaign from the lobbyist from the casino.
Why did Kayla support McCreight? Chris McCreight had his campaign fundraisers at The Lockyard, which Kayla and her husband own. While McCreight’s campaign didn’t turn out the way he wanted, Kayla did well.
Between 2023 and 2024, McCreight spent $5405.00 at The Lockyard.
Between 2021 and 2022, Chris McCreight spent: $3768.32 at the Lockyard:
On November 5th, 2024, Senator Andrew Gounardes had a $3,082.39 “office expense” from The Lockyard.
This past month Justin Brannan did a “carve out” of the City of Yes, which included homes below Ridge Blvd and of course Justin Brannan’s property. Residents above Ridge Blvd will experience the City of Yes, while Brannan excluded himself. Even if Kayla Santosusso supported the City of Yes, she was too timid to speak out against Brannan for excluding his property?
Justin Brannan bragged to the Brooklyn Young Democrats that the average person has no idea what is going on. (Play the video below – caution adjust sound – profanity) Justin Brannan hid information from our community, so that’s why the average Ridgite doesn’t know what they should know.
After @JustinBrannan leaves the @NYCCouncil he should launch a podcast called "The average person has no fvcking idea what's going on" with Justin Brannan. pic.twitter.com/SGOK3Pm26m

This is the mentality of some of our politicians. We saw Brannan, Gounardes and Chu fail to share the letters they received from NYC about the homeless shelter in Bay Ridge. (Info) The information wasn’t meant for an exclusive group of politicians.
Kayla became the president of the Bay Ridge Democrats this Fall. As a member of the Bay Ridge Democrats, why was Kayla Santosusso silent when Bay Ridge was severely gerrymandered? Why didn’t she speak out against politicians who withheld information about the homeless shelter?
Thankfully, Bay Ridge and Coney Island voted against Chris McCreight, we have all had enough of the nonsense!
Dyker Heights elected their neighbor, Steve Chan, who is not a politician. Let’s do that Bay Ridge – throw your hat in if you can fight (and avoid lobbyists too).

Meeting for Grocery Store Owners & Managers About Stopping EBT Scams – January 9th
EBT Scams are on the rise. Some families and seniors have a Snap EBT card to get food at stores (EBT stands for Electronic Benefit Transfer).
Scammers have gotten increasingly better at stealing money off of EBT cards. Steve Chan shared that over 1,000 cases of stolen EBT card money had been reported in District 17.
When a person gets robbed at a store, they tell everyone they know and people stop going to that store because they don’t want to get scammed!
If you are a grocery store owner or manager, please attend this seminar on Thursday, January 9th from 2:00 pm to 4:00 pm to learn how to prevent fraud.
Register here: https://forms.gle/eWvgPivspprG3Tav7 or Call 646-580-6612 to register.
This is the first time I have seen an event like this in our area. It’s nice to see many politicians collaborating with Steve Chan and helping business owners.
Co-hosted by:
Congresswoman Nicole Malliotakis (District 11)
Assemblyman Lester Chang (District 49)
Assemblyman William Colton (District 47)
Assemblyman Michael Tannousis (District 64)
Assemblyman Michael Novakhov (District 45)
NYC Council Member Susan Zhuang (District 43)

Thank Andrew Gounardes for the New Tolls Into NYC – He Pushed Congestion Pricing
Senator Andrew Gounardes pushed tirelessly on social media for congestion pricing.

Why would a NYS Senator, who represents Brooklyn push congestion pricing on Brooklynites, while NY’ers are being charged higher prices for everything?
Lobbyists.
