TEACHERS FOR CHOICE NYC Primary Voter Guide
Candidates supporting the right to medical choice
TEACHERS FOR CHOICE makes political endorsements solely on a candidate’s position regarding medical and health freedom. For New York City Council elections the main issue we are focused on is that of fired unvaccinated workers. We endorse candidates for City Council who support reinstating and compensating workers fired for declining the COVID shot.
Below are flyers and links to our current endorsements as well as our analysis of the Democratic Primary for Mayor (which this year is quite complex). Early voting has already started in NYC ending on June 22. Election day will be on June 24.

TEACHERS FOR CHOICE Can Not Endorse Either Mayoral Frontrunner
Some people say if Cuomo wins, Curtis Sliwa will have a better path to victory. Others say if Mamdani, wins Sliwa is in a better spot. Under no circumstances can TEACHERS FOR CHOICE endorse Mamdani - not even for strategic reasons - as he is a complete enemy to fired unvaccinated workers in NYC, from his own words.

RANK PAPERBOY PRINCE FOR MAYOR!
PAPERBOY PRINCE doesn’t have a path to victory in the mayoral primary or election, unfortunately. However, he is the only Democratic candidate who said he would reinstate and compensate fired unvaccinated workers. If you are a registered Democrat, we recommend you rank Prince #1. Rank choice voting is designed so you can place your long-shot pick first, and any other “safe” candidate after that. We believe Prince deserves to be ranked first.

Hi there! I had to chuckle at being called “progressive” because I just saw some other social media posts calling me “MAGA”. But I appreciate the fact that you took your time to look over my platform. That’s so crucial to making an informed decision.
U seems to write in every article about democrat party primaries and that democrat party is so done for what they did to our country with their stealing and corruption as on I would never ever vote for any democrat party no matter what.
