mailmanSeph Murtagh is my choice for New York State Legislature. I already voted for him by absentee ballot. Please join me!

Seph is my ward representative on Common Council. He has been quick to respond to questions and to address issues. He has the courage to say difficult things and ask hard questions and does so with grace and humility. His communication is concise yet thorough and he never talks just to hear himself talk! When others are talking he listens for understanding. He follows through and works hard to get to the bottom of problems.

When my neighbor’s teen grandson and his friend, two Black young men, were pursued by police and held face down at gunpoint in front of her house, Seph was an important liaison with city government as our community protested and worked to find ways to address the issues involved. He later joined me and others on a community-based working group appointed by the mayor to work with police to develop implicit bias training. I was impressed by his commitment and passion for justice and his deep compassion for everyone at the table.

The combination of Seph’s extensive experience, his ability to listen and connect, his strong work ethic and his fierce commitment to justice make him an extremely effective advocate. We need him in the New York State Legislature.
