Senator Michael Gianaris joined PS/IS 78 students at their new state-of-the-art school building in Long Island City for the school’s annual class council elections. Senator Gianaris, who has attended PS/IS 78’s school elections for three years running, spoke to a packed auditorium of students about the value of democratic participation, and answered dozens of questions about what he does to improve the lives of western Queens residents.
“It’s inspiring to see our young people so excited about participating in the democratic process,” said Senator Gianaris. “Our democracy is based on people being engaged in their community and making their voices heard at the ballot box, and I’m glad to see those values instilled early here in western Queens.”
