Andrew Gounardes Does Not Support NYC Retirees. Gounardes Failed to Cosponsor Bill 8388.
Last Summer, NYC Retirees had to fight back because their medical benefits were being changed to another plan. Justin Brannan was not initially on the bill to support the retirees. (Info here)
Many Ridgites, who worked for the city called on Justin Brannan to get on the bill and support the retirees. When many of them took to social media, Brannan signed onto the bill.
Now at the state level, Andrew Gounardes is a problem. Andrew did not co-sponsor Senate Bill 8388. (See the bill here)
Here’s the NYS Senators who sponsored the bill:
Gounardes is so disconnected that he didn’t even mention the bill. In November, Gounardes term is up and there will be an election. Let him know you will vote against him if he isn’t on the bill.
Around election time, these politicians like to play the union card, but we can see they are not supporting men and women in our community who worked for 30+ years and deserve the benefits they worked for.
This bill prohibits public employers from diminishing health insurance benefits. Obviously Andrew Gounardes does not think that retirees deserve that or he would be a co-sponsor of the bill.
It is a bipartisan bill and both Bay Ridge Assemblymen, Michael Tannousis and Alec Brook-Krasny co-sponsored the bill in the Assembly (Bill A7866).
Assemblyman Harvey Epstein shared his support of the bill today. We should have seen Gounardes do the same.
Instead Andrew Gounardes posted a photo of his socks. Why would a 40-year-old man think people wanted to look at his feet?
Albany is just fun and game for Gounardes, as he shared this picture too last week.
Bay Ridge, elect someone who isn’t afraid to speak for the community in Albany. We have had enough of the clowning around on social media.

Community Board 10 and The 68th Precinct Discussed the Murder at Catch 22
(Picture from Video Here)
A 37-year-old man named Daryl Dawkins was stabbed in the chest on April 7th at 2:50 am at Catch 22 Bar and Restaurant on 3rd Avenue and 72nd Street. (Info here)
Community Board 10 had a Police and Public Safety Committee Meeting this week. Usually this committee only talks about liquor licenses in Bay Ridge, but this month they had three police officers from the 68th Precinct present because of the murder and stabbing last week. Lieutenant Christopher Vincent and two Community Affairs officers answered questions.
Community Board 10 mentioned that Catch 22 had difficulty before this incident. Community Board 10 met with the owner of Catch 22 in June 2023. Last year, Community Board 10 requested that Catch 22 close the bar earlier because there were numerous complaints about noise. The SLA and NY allows bars to stay open until 4:00 am.
CB 10 asked if the stabbing happened in the bar or outside the bar. Lieutenant Vincent said that Daryl Dawkins was stabbed inside the bar.
The man who stabbed Dawkins is NOZT an employee of Catch 22 (which was written on Facebook).
The suspect was inside the bar at some point during the evening. On social media, someone said the killer was not a patron at Catch 22. The Lieutenant also said the investigation was still going on.
No one has been arrested for the murder yet.
