Meet and Greet with Bill de Blasio in Hiawatha, Iowa on Saturday, June 8, 2019
Description
As Mayor of the largest city in American, Bill de Blasio has an impressive track record of progressive accomplishments.
Under his leadership NYC has established universal free, full day, high quality Pre-K for every 4 year, old raised the minimum wage to $15 per hour, guaranteed paid sick days for millions of workers, launched a universal healthcare program guaranteeing quality care for all New Yorkers, ended the era of stop-and-frisk, begun divesting pension funds from fossil fuel companies, enacted the NYC Green New Deal, protected tenants with the city’s first ever rent freeze, provided free legal assistance for immigrants facing deportation, and established the strongest system for public financing of elections in the country.
Critics predicted that de Blasio’s “fairness” agenda would hurt the city’s economy and cause crime to increase. The exact opposite has happened: The city has added more than 500,000 jobs since Mayor de Blasio took office and major crimes have dropped every single year of his administration and now stand at historically low levels.
Mayor de Blasio has proven that bold progressive change is possible in one of the biggest, toughest, most complicated political environments in the country. Now he wants to bring that same agenda to the entire country.
Come meet NYC Mayor de Blasio and learn about his vision for a progressive America.
