FLIPPABLE: Matthew Maling for NY-AD17 (SPECIAL ELECTION)

Dear Fellow Long Islanders,

My name is Matt and I'm running to be the next Member of the New York State Assembly from the 17th District. I am running for office because my parents raised me and my sister to be the type of people that aren't content with the way the world is. I want to make my community a safer, more productive, and more inclusive place for everyone.

I have been a life-long resident of Seaford and attended Levittown schools eventually graduating from General Douglas MacArthur High School. I went on to study Political Science, at Hofstra University, in Uniondale.

As an Eagle Scout from Troop 96 in Wantagh, I have always tried to serve the community to the best of my ability. Since graduating college I have been trying to use what I was taught in all my endeavors to make a difference in the community any way that I can. As an intern in Congresswoman Carolyn McCarthy's office in Washington, DC, I started to learn the issues our community faces, first hand, and talked to people from the district in an effort to help address their needs and concerns. Since coming back to Nassau County, I have helped many local candidates run successful campaigns through my work with the Nassau County Democratic Committee. Under the leadership of Chairman Jay Jacobs, my fellow Democrats and I, through hard work, inclusive policies and progressive ideas have made many strides towards making Nassau a prosperous place for all its residents.

Outside of the political sphere, my wife, Jen, and I own a home in North Seaford. We volunteer with the MacArthur HS and Salk MS drama clubs. We spend many weeknights helping Mrs. Lisa Levenberg put on her wonderful shows. I also spend time as a Trustee and Deacon at Wantagh Memorial Congregational Church. Our community outreach, through the guidance of Rev. Ron Garner, has made Nassau County a better place for all its residents.
