Director Rehan Mehmood Speaks on Redistricting
Recently, Rehan Mehmood, our Director of Health Services testified at New York State Independent Redistricting Commission. His testimony aimed to help ensure that communities living in the neighborhood of Flushing, which is currently covered by two districts – the 25th and 40th Assembly Districts – are kept together during the redistricting process.
An article in Gothamist includes Rehan’s perspective and explains why “Redistricting Means Power” as everyday New Yorkers get a say in carving out their district lines.
