PAUL NEWELL
DEMOCRATIC DISTRICT LEADER AD 65C
"I have known Wei-Li Tjong for over 30 years. His connection to our neighborhoods runs deep. I’ve also watched him as a leader – of residents on the Lower East Side, of a small business, and in the Democratic Party. In each of these roles, Wei-Li brings brilliance, thoughtfulness, and compassion. Above all, Wei-Li gets things done. Lower Manhattan will be well-served by him. I am proud to endorse Wei-Li Tjong for the 65th Assembly District."

VIC LEE
DEMOCRATIC STATE COMMITTEE MEMBER, AD 65
“Albany doesn't just need people who care about the right policies. It needs people who know how to build things and make them work. Wei-Li has built a law firm from the ground up and led a community of thousands. He understands that good legislation means nothing if it can't be implemented. That's a rare combination, and exactly what our district needs.”

Joseph Gordon
DEMOCRATIC DISTRICT LEADER AD 65A
“Wei-Li is far and away the best candidate to lead Assembly District 65 and I am proud to endorse him. His keen understanding of the specific issues that affect our district, borne from his lifelong residency in and longstanding service to the Lower East Side, are going to make him an effective and impactful assembly member on day one. He’s a builder of teams, a problem-solver and is ready to be of service to the entire community. I look forward to seeing all that he will accomplish for our district.”

JESSICA KRAMER
DEMOCRATIC DISTRICT LEADER AD 65A
“Wei-li and I have had the opportunity to work together on the Seward Park Cooperative Board and through our work together at Grand Street Dems and as local electeds on the Lower East Side. He’s a long time dedicated public servant who has always given back to this community. His legal background and local expertise make him a great candidate for the NY Assembly, where I know he’ll serve with dedication and a sense of justice for all New Yorkers. “
