Hawkins and Sussman to Outline Campaign Agendas on Segregation and Former Offenders

The Green Party candidates for Governor and Attorney General will hold a news conference on Monday October 29 in White Plains to discuss their campaigns. The event will be at 12:30 PM in front of the White Plains city Hill at 255 Main St.

In addition to this week’s Gubernatorial debate sponsored by the League of Women Voters, Hawkins, a retired Teamster from Syracuse, will outline his positions on housing, education and segregation. Hawkins, who finished 3rd with 5% of the vote in the 2014 Gubernatorial race, is the only progressive on the ballot for Governor on November 6.

Sussman, the veteran civil rights and constitutional attorney from Orange County, will outline his platform, including the need to provide additional support to former offenders returning to the community.

Sussman will outline how the current operation of the Attorney General’s office protects corruption, and undermines the fair application of justice. His plans will end those practices.
