My name is Denny Salas, and I'm a proud first-generation American, husband, and father-to-be.

 

My immigrant story is like many New Yorkers: I grew up in poverty, we collected cans for money, and in a case of arson, we almost lost our lives when someone lit our house on fire while my family and I were inside.

 

Despite those challenges, we achieved the American Dream, and I believe it is alive and for everyone.

 

I'm running to provide Public Safety, Better Education, and Economic Opportunities for our Lower Manhattan District.
