I'm Shaniyat Chowdhury, running for Congress in NY-5. AMA!

Posted: 05 Jun 2020 07:32 AM PDT

My name is Shaniyat Chowdhury and I am currently running for Congress in New York's Fifth Congressional District. A little bit about me is that I am a US Marine Veteran and former AOC staffer. Before I declared my candidacy for Congress I was a bartender, and I still currently live in public housing. What originally inspired me to run for public office was the injustices that I saw being perpetuated against working class people and the struggles that marginalized groups go through. I felt my current representative hasn't been doing a good job at representing everyday people of the congressional district and it doesn't help that he consistently ranked as one of the most corrupt Democrats in DC. Other than that, I'm happy to be here!
