Proud to be the pro-choice Democrat for AD38 endorsed by @ppesacts.bsky.social! New York must remain strong in our protections of reproductive rights and gender equity. In the Assembly, I always will stand up for our healthcare, privacy, and civil liberties, and stand up to the Trump admin.

"At a time when sexual and reproductive health care are under unprecedented attack on the federal level, we need leaders who will fight to protect bodily autonomy and the fundamental right to healthcare, and that is David Orkin. David has dedicated his life to protecting and empowering the most vulnerable in our communities, and we look forward to working with him in the Assembly to defend the rights of all New Yorkers."

From supporting rail electrification, community solar, and freight decarbonization, to advocating for nature-based flood solutions, clean air, and expanded green jobs, David has demonstrated a comprehensive commitment to building a cleaner and more equitable future for all, and we are proud to endorse his candidacy for the New York State Assembly."
