October 30, 2022Iwen Chu Brought Hotel Workers to Campaign

Some people with Hotel shirts showed up in Brooklyn to campaign with Iwen Chu.
I went to their website – the Hotel and Gaming Workers (see here).

Their website shows a map with dots for where they are located – none are on our neighborhood.
These people aren’t here on a Sunday for no reason.
While we were told by Councilman Brannan that the mayor is no longer using hotels for homeless people, the mayor has needed to use hotels all over NYC for asylum seekers. (See here and here)
We don’t need hotels or casinos here. Vote for Vito LaBella, Brooklyn!
Why didn’t Abbate speak out against the hotel on 86th Street? Neither Peter Abbate or Andrew Gounardes spoke out against the hotel on 86th Street.
