New York, N.Y. – NARAL Pro-Choice New York has endorsed Ben Kallos, the Democratic nominee for City Council in the Upper East Side and Roosevelt Island, choosing Kallos for his strong commitment to equal health and equal rights.

 

“Ben Kallos has made women’s rights a cornerstone of his platform and continues to strongly champion equal access to health care and information for women and girls. We feel confident that in the City Council, Ben will emphasize issues that matter to all New Yorkers, like safeguarding access to reproductive care, ensuring that all New Yorkers have the information they need to stay healthy and safe, and providing protections against the anti-choice forces that prey on vulnerable women in this city,” said Andrea Miller, President of NARAL Pro-Choice New York.

“I am proud to receive the endorsement of NARAL Pro-Choice New York. We share many of the same priorities, and both envision a city where women have complete access to the services they need. A fair city is one where every women has choice, health services and equal rights," said Kallos.
