Why Am I Running For Office?
Hi Everyone,
My name is Mahtab Khan. I am a Bangladeshi-American + Muslim activist and community organizer from Jamaica, Queens. I am also a tenant, Gen Z, and product of NYC public schools + CUNY John Jay College.
I am now running a grassroots campaign for New York Assembly District 24 (Jamaica, Briarwood, Oakland Gardens, Queens Village, Hollis, Richmond Hill). One of the reasons why I am running is because I realized that we've had little to no representation of BIPOC, immigrant, marginalized, and working class community members in New York Assembly District 24.
As New York State Assemblymember, I will be the voice for our community and help bring representation to the table. We need to give the next generation a chance to lead and be able to hold government officials accountable, ensure that there is transparency in the New York Democratic Party, and help pass meaningful legislation to address the needs of working class everyday New Yorkers. I am running on a platform on environmental justice, housing justice, protection for immigrant community members, and public safety for the common good.
If you have friends and family in the District, please spread the word and follow @KhanForNYC for more updates. Thank you!
