BREAKING NEWS: Assemblymember Blake selected for NewDEAL
Assemblymember Michael Blake is one of only 13 Elected Officials in the nation and the first person of color ever selected from New York to join The New DEAL.

Today, Assemblymember Michael Blake was selected as one of the thirteen leaders from across the country to join the NewDEAL (Developing Exceptional American Leaders), a national network that is committed to highlighting innovative ideas from state and local elected leaders who are pro-growth progressives.

“I congratulate this group of NewDEAL Leaders who have been chosen for their pro-growth policy solutions from the front-lines of government. We are proud to highlight these leaders from across the country with innovative ideas to make government more efficient and effective,” said Senator Mark Warner (D-VA), Honorary Co-Chair of the NewDEAL.

“We believe that in order to address the challenges of the 21st century, we need to look for fresh ideas at the state and local level where leaders like Assemblymember Michael Blake are developing and testing innovative solutions to help move our country forward,” said Governor Jack Markell, Honorary Co-Chair of the NewDEAL.

“I am incredibly grateful to be selected to join such a prestigious and transformative coalition of public servants who are committed to creating economic opportunity and equity through pro-growth strategies. It is equally an honor to be the first person of color ever selected from New York.  Our vision of Economic Development, Education and Equality for All is focused on transforming the South Bronx into the urban metropolis of the world.  Thank you NewDEAL for the opportunity to join other likeminded leaders who are committed to empowering their communities and our country,” said Assemblymember Michael Blake.
