Shekar for City Council NY-25

New York City is facing an affordability crisis, a racial justice crisis, and a public health crisis. It is more important than ever that we have a fighter representing us, who has both the vision and the experience, to make the changes we need. I am running for City Council because Elmhurst and Jackson Heights deserve a leader who will be fearless in standing up to powerful interests when our community’s needs are at stake.

I am ready to fight for you. I have been fighting for our community for years. Together, we’ve fought for more open space and safe streets, for more resources for our public schools, and against a racist criminal system. I am eager to take this fight to the City Council.

Support Our Campaign! We are a grassroots campaign. We are not accepting any corporate or corporate PAC contributions, developer dollars, lobbyist, or law enforcement money. Because we’re part of the public financing system, your contribution will be matched 8:1 with public funds. We are so grateful for anything you can give at all.
