Preserve Ramapo Endorses Ken Zebrowski for Rockland District Attorney

Published

on

In the Democratic primary for Rockland County District Attorney we give our endorsement to Kenneth Zebrowski – Preserve Ramapo

Ken Zebrowski has served in the New York State Assembly for the past 12 years and is well known throughout Rockland County. He is the very model of what a public servant should be. He is smart, remarkably hardworking and proactive with the capacity to bring people together and make things happen. He always does his homework and seeks out common sense solutions to problematic issues. His forceful personality along with the determination and vigor to take the bull by the horns and clean up the corruption that rules the roost in Rockland, make him the most compelling choice for District Attorney.

Ken has never been afraid to stand with us on all of the most contentious issues of the day. If he’s not fighting for educational equity, curriculum equivalency, or oversight monitors for schools or municipalities, then he’s working to enforce zoning codes, strengthen building inspection measures, or researching the federal regulations that ultimately torpedoed the chicken slaughterhouse. Ken’s long running immersion in these local matters lends a unique perspective that will serve him well as District Attorney because the policy aspects of these issues are so closely intertwined with their law enforcement dimensions.

Ken is fair minded, independent and circumspect. He has repeatedly demonstrated his willingness to stand up to powerful special interests in pursuit of the public good. We believe Ken will continue that tradition as District Attorney and enforce the law in a judicious and even-handed manner.

It is important to know that Thomas Walsh has secured the support of the Chassidic leadership and will receive the Bloc vote in the upcoming Democratic primary election. This makes it unlikely that Walsh can be impartial in the execution of his duties. In addition, Walsh has already been handed the Republican and Conservative Party nominations and will automatically appear on those ballot lines in the general election in November.

With four candidates in the Democratic primary we cannot afford to split our vote. This leaves us with one simple but critically essential task:

Determine which of the three remaining candidates has the best chance of winning a four-way primary without the Bloc vote, and then unify and mobilize the Preserve Rockland counter vote behind that one candidate. We firmly believe the candidate with the best chance for victory is Kenneth Zebrowski.

We need everyone to come out and give Ken the votes he will need to beat the Bloc and become the next District Attorney for Rockland County.

Thank you,
Robert Rhodes
Chairman Preserve Ramapo

Former State Sen. Elijah Reichlin-Melnick Announces 2024 Campaign at Rockland County Courthouse

Published

on

NEW CITY, NY – On June 26, 2023 former Sen. Elijah Reichlin-Melnick launched his 2024 campaign to retake the 38th District State Senate Seat in Rockland County.

“I firmly believe that if we are represented by the right people, Rockland County can achieve extraordinary things,” said Reichlin-Melnick. “But with so many critical issues facing our communities, Rockland can’t afford a bench warmer in the Senate. We need a senator who can get things done for our county. And that’s why I’m running.”

At the rally, Reichlin-Melnick was introduced by Assemblyman Ken Zebrowski who lauded Reichlin-Melnick’s record of accomplishment in Albany during the 2021-22 legislative session. Haverstraw Town Supervisor Howard Phillips, Rockland County Clerk Donna Silberman, Orangetown Democratic Committee Chair Liza Barrie, and Clarkstown Democratic Committee Co-Chair Monica Ferguson also spoke, and praised Reichlin-Melnick’s record of community-focused service.

During his two years representing Rockland County in Albany, Reichlin-Melnick delivered more than $10 million in state grant funding for infrastructure projects, parks, playgrounds, law enforcement, agencies, fire departments, EMS companies, non-profits, and more. He passed 90 bills through the Senate, more than any other freshman senator during the 2021-22 legislative session.

Chris Exias Wins Primary for Rockland County Family Court Judge, Releases Statement Thanking Supporters

Published

Chris Exias released the following statement:

When I started on this journey, I decided that in order to serve the people of Rockland County effectively, I had to connect with the communities that make up this diverse county. Since then, my wife Alejandra, daughter Gabriela, and even our little guy Mateo and I set out to get to know all of our neighbors better. I went everywhere possible and met as many people as possible, from upscale galas to community service events, black tie dinners to backyard barbeques, worship services to candidate forums. I rolled up my sleeves, worked shoulder-to-shoulder with you, and learned about what drives you to action. I also shared what fuels my passion for public service and how Family Court is where I can make the biggest difference serving this wonderful place I call home.
On Primary Day, I didn’t want you to just vote for me, I wanted you to know me, and I wanted to know you. My fervent hope and prayer was that when you voted for me, you were voting for someone you were familiar with and most of all someone you trusted.
Thank you to everyone who voted for me and asked their friends and family to do likewise. I promise to honor the immense trust placed in me to be a fair-minded, thoughtful, patient, and compassionate Family Court Judge with an unwavering commitment to justice for all that appear before me.

I humbly ask for your continued support and prayers as we continue along this journey together. This week’s Primary Election victory is a victory for ALL ROCKLAND FAMILIES! Thank you all so much!
