NYC Council Member Dromm statement on the arrest of Irvin Antillon, Proud Boys member and Jackson Heights resident

UsaNewsOnline.Com Desk, New York : “It is sickening to learn that an alleged member of the Proud Boys is a resident of Jackson Heights, a neighborhood known worldwide for its acceptance of diversity,” said NYC Council Member Daniel Dromm (Jackson Heights, Elmhurst).  “I condemn the Proud Boys’ fascist, sexist far-right agenda and say they have no place in the neighborhood.  As an out gay elected official, I will stand up to protect our neighborhood from the destruction that this organization is attempting to impose on our country and our community.  Jackson Heights residents value our long tradition of being a place that is welcoming of everyone.” Press Release.
