Susan Berland (Democratic, Working Families)

I am pro reproductive freedom and pro choice.

I have a proven record of fiscal responsibility and am the best person to make sure spending is controlled and transparent.

Public Safety - we need reasonable gun safety laws that will withstand conservative court challenges.

Susan Berland (Democratic, Working Families)

I am passionate about reproductive freedoms; equal protection for all New Yorkers; public safety - advocating for both the police and victims of crime; reasonable gun safety laws; protecting our environment, water and open space; providing resources for our veterans; increasing school funding and making services available to all; fighting the opioid epidemic and putting resources toward mental health treatment. Serving for 20 years in local office, I have been able not only to pass laws that reflect my passions for good, sound and life-improving public policy but to listen to my constituents and to further their life-affirming and improving passions as well.
