National Organization for Women :: Brooklyn-Queens Chapter

BQNOW, as a member of the Equal Pay Coalition NYC, wants you to know where the mayoral candidates stand on economic issues affecting women and minorities. There is no right answer and no endorsement is given or implied. NY1 and WABC will broadcast the Mayoral debates this month. Check your local listings for times and dates.

Check out the mayoral candidates' responses; questions and answers are posted on EPCNYC's blog: http://www.nywaepcnyc.org.
