This campaign is backing an exciting progressive Hispanic candidate for a vacant NYC Council seat in a special election on February 24th.

Francisco Moya is a lifelong resident of Corona, Queens. At the age of 15 Francisco started the Corona Gardens Neighborhood Association with a group of concerned neighbors that focused on civic activity in the community. Those activities ranged from starting a block watch program to setting up beautification drives that helped plant trees in the community as well as working with the 110 Ptc. Council to remove graffiti from the neighborhood.

After graduating from St. John’s University, Francisco went to work in Washington D.C. for two members of Congress; Congresswoman Nydia Velazquez and Congressman Brad Sherman. Francisco took his experience from working in Congress and came back to the neighborhood to put that experience to work for us.
