Lee is not our ideal candidate, but Niou is worse

In her limited time in the Assembly, Lee has a mixed record. We have not seen Lee sponsor important housing and streetscape bills that abundance-aligned peers have supported. While she supported congestion pricing, she pushed for a carveout that would have weakened the program. Still, she has sponsored some important climate-related bills, like the ASAP Act, that would accelerate solar energy production and she has secured funding for NYCHA.

Grace Lee supported Citizens Union's entire reform agenda. While in office, she passed a law requiring the NYC Board of Elections to notify local parties and elected officials of polling site changes, and she introduced a bill to rein in public spending on litigation. Citizens Union prefers Grace Lee in this race.
