(Staten Island, New York) – Citizen Action of New York is proud to announce the endorsement of Sarah Blas for NYC City Council District 49 — a candidate who represents the bold, people-first leadership Staten Island needs and deserves.
“Sarah Blas is running on a bold, people-powered platform that puts our communities first — from fully funding our public schools to expanding access to truly affordable housing and investing in real public safety rooted in care, not criminalization,” said Colin Hall, Citizen Action of New York Community Organizer, NYC Chapter. “Her campaign is being led by everyday New Yorkers who are ready for a government that works for all of us, not just the wealthy and well-connected. That’s the kind of leadership we need in City Hall.”
District 49, which includes North Shore Staten Island neighborhoods like St. George, Tompkinsville, and Mariners Harbor, is home to a vibrant, diverse community that has been underserved for too long. Citizen Action believes Sarah’s vision — rooted in equity, compassion, and community — offers a clear path forward.
“Citizen Action doesn’t just hand out endorsements — they organize, they fight, and they stand with people who put community first,” said Sarah Blas, Candidate for NYC City Council District 49. “I’m honored to have their support. It means they see what we’re building: a campaign rooted in justice, accountability, and action. Now let’s turn that energy into votes.”
