Black Women in New York want to see Congress prioritize Education, Housing and Healthcare- we believe there is no better champion of these priorities than Jamaal Bowman" -CVHPower Board member- Cheryl Watts

“With so much at stake at the federal level, we need fighters who will unapologetically advocate for communities most impacted by bad legislation. Congressman Jamaal Bowman has stood up for his community time and time again, which is why CVHP members are proud to endorse Jamaal Bowman, a champion of people power, to represent US Congress NY16.”- Juanita O. Lewis, Executive Director, CVHPower.

“I am so excited to have Community Voices Heard backing my re-election campaign,” said Congressman Jamaal Bowman (NY-16). “Women of color and low-income communities have been left behind by Washington for decades, which is why when I got into Congress just one year ago, I focused on fighting for equitable access to opportunities for our kids, affordable housing for our families, and to create a pathway to citizenship for our immigrant community. Since 1994, CVH has been working to address inequalities in New York and I was proud to have their support in my last election as I brought that fight with me into the halls of Congress. Now, I am proud to once again receive their endorsement so together we can continue to strive to create an equitable future for all.”
