Dear Neighbor,
One of the most important things I do is listen and learn from you. Because I am unable to meet personally with everyone in my
district, I value the opportunity to hear from you in this survey.
I want to know what you are concerned about, what I should be advocating for in Albany when we start a new legislative session
this January and how you think I am doing responding to you.
Please ll out as much of this survey as you would like. Once you are done, this survey is designed to be easily mailed back to
me (just remember to put a stamp on it), or drop it off at our new ofce at 1365 First Avenue, between 73rd and 74th Streets.
It is always great to hear from you and thank you for your valuable input.
Sincerely,
Micah Z. Kellner
Assembly Member
P.S. You can get regular updates from me by including your email address on this survey.
