The 'Gotham Angels' are coming after 'The Squad'. Watch out AOC. The GOP is back with a makeover. Four young Republican women mean to take back NYC City Hall from the Marxist scourge that has afflicted the financial capital of the world.
In touch with mothers on the ground, who are furious at the rise in crime, the lack of safety on the streets, and schools forcing masks and CRT on their children, these women are serious. All four have already made history by garnering enough support to receive matching funds.
A press release is below giving background on each.
NEW YORK- There’s never been more female Republican candidates running for city council seats than now. Four young, attractive women aim to change the makeup of New York City’s political landscape. Meet Jackie Toboroff , Inna Vernikov, Felicia Kalan and Vanessa Simon; all looking to win and reinvent the image of the Republican party.
They are united in their message:
Public safety needs to brought back to NYC
No more playing games with our children; they demand better education and no mandatory CRT in schools
Quality of life; we need clean streets, homeless management, and support for our small businesses
Jackie Toboroff
Jackie Toboroff is a born and bred New Yorker. Raising her two children in the city, she knows first-hand the struggles all New Yorkers face in 2021. The streets are unclean and unsafe, mentally ill roam the subways unsupervised, the city’s present political leadership has adopted anti-business policies, and is openly hostile to entrepreneurship, and has vilified working class families. New York City is spending way beyond its means and is bankrupt and cannot continue under the present trajectory. Jackie Toboroff is ready to get back to business basics and prioritize the budgeting of essential city functions and services. On the New York City Council, Toboroff will:
● Fully fund and support the New York Police Department ● Hold all city agencies accountable ● Cut spending ● Pass a balanced budget ● Ban Critical Race Theory ● Remove all public school syllabi that teach our children to hate
Inna Vernikov
Inna Vernikov is the Republican candidate for City Council in a district that includes Brighton Beach, Manhattan Beach, Sheepshead Bay and Midwood.
Inna Vernikov is a small business owner and lawyer who grew up being taught the values of integrity and hard work. Her dedication to community service has been acknowledged by the U.S Congress, State Senate and the City Council.
As someone who is concerned for the future of New York, Inna believes that progressive policies and anti-police sentiments are threatening our way of life. Coming from the former Soviet Union, she understands the dangers of government control, and is now standing up to be a voice in the City Council for civil liberties and free-market principles.
Inna cares about:
- Defending Law Enforcement- Our current leadership is siding with criminals over hard-working families. Inna will support and defend, not defund, the police.
- Standing Against Homeless Shelters- Inna stands firmly against shelters being built near schools and playgrounds and in areas where they will reduce property values.
- Standing Up For Merit-Based Education- Inna will fight to restore merit-based admissions to specialized programs.
- Supporting Small Businesses- As a small business owner, Inna understands what is necessary to create jobs and build a strong economy and will fight for policies that work for and not against our entrepreneurs.
Felicia Kalan
“As a working mom of two, I decided to run as a Republican for office in District 22 (QUEENS) because I saw a city government that was out of touch with everyday families like mine, and I want to fight to bring all New Yorkers a bright future. Our current elected officials make decisions that impact people without logic or vision- and I'm ready to get to work and make the necessary changes that will lead us to a new age of prosperity bringing good paying jobs, a vision that creates a safe and clean city, a place families can raise children, and a place where all people can thrive regardless of socioeconomic status.”
“I'm the Chairwoman of the Interfaith Coalition for Peace & Safety- an organization that promotes peace in our neighborhoods and builds bridges between communities and public safety officials, and every year we host the National Public Safety Honors Day in partnership with Peace December. I'm also a former Church Youth Director at Eastminster Presbyterian, I've served in campus ministry, and served alongside my husband, former Pastor/Elder at Bridge Community Church in Long Island City.” - Felicia Kalan
Vanessa Simon
As a daughter of immigrants from Haiti, Vanessa values and understands the true meaning of ‘the pursuit of happiness’ and America's freedoms. Vanessa is committed to achieving affordable, respectable, and safe living conditions for current and future residents in the district. She is a proud resident of Laurelton, Queens, and committed to being a part of the growth and elevation of the 31st City Council District: Arverne, Brookville, Edgemere, Far Rockaway, Laurelton, Rosedale, and Springfield Gardens.
Vanessa has also partnered with the homeless shelter Restful Nights and mental health facility at Faith Mission Crisis Center during the Covid-19 pandemic to provide cooked meals and personal care kits.
Vanessa understands the importance of quality education. She was a captain of Target’s library renovation project in Southeast Queens. Her responsibilities included donating $5,000 in book inventory and gathering 250 volunteers to renew the library into a safe and healthy learning environment in the community for children to learn and dream.
District 31 needs a focused and committed leader that provides solutions-driven strategies to get New York back on track. Vanessa is asking for your support and vote for her as the next City Council member to represent District 31. With your help, we can win and build a better district, improve the quality of life in South Queens and New York City.
