Hi Sharra,
I'm Michael Blake, and I'm running for Congress in The Bronx because we need real solutions to the cost-of-living crisis. And Ritchie Torres hasn't delivered for our communities.
If you're ready to help build this movement, watch my launch video and chip in now — $3 or more — to become a founding donor. We're changing the game for The Bronx.

As a proud son of The Bronx, the child of Jamaican immigrants, a man of faith, and a product of New York City public schools, this is personal to me.
My mother worked in manufacturing for 40 years. My late father was a proud 1199SEIU member and maintenance supervisor at St. Barnabas Hospital. They taught me the value of hard work, service, and dignity, lessons that have guided me ever since.
From working with then-Senator Barack Obama to launch his movement for hope, serving in President Obama's White House, to serving three terms as a New York Assembly Member, creating New York's My Brother's Keeper program, and becoming an ordained Reverend, Husband and Bonus Father,
I've spent my life fighting for Jobs, Justice and to lower the cost of living. And now, I'm running for Congress.
On Day 1, we launched The Bronx Plan — our 5-point plan to bring actionable solutions, real hope, and progress everyone can feel to The Bronx, right now.
