Carmen De La Rosa

Carmen De La Rosa is running for re-election to represent District 10 in the New York City Council. De La Rosa has dedicated her time in office to securing environmental justice for frontline communities. She incorporated environmental priorities into her co-governance model, working directly with her constituents to develop climate and sustainability initiatives that reflect their needs. As part of this effort, she invited WE ACT for Environmental Justice to be part of her community co-governance initiative, ensuring that community voices and environmental justice advocates help shape our policies. If re-elected, De La Rosa will focus on strengthening the implementation of Local Law 97 and eliminating lead exposure.
