Mark Levine has been at the forefront of advocating for more affordable, equitable and healthy communities for nearly 25 years. He’s a former bilingual math and science teacher in the South Bronx, and he founded the Neighborhood Trust Federal Credit Union, which today has made over $100 million of loans to local families and businesses in Northern Manhattan and the South Bronx. He served on the New York City Council for 8 years, including as Chair of the Committee on Parks, Chair of the Jewish Caucus, and Chair of the Committee on Health, where he brought his science-based and data driven approach to helping to lead the city out of the worst public health crisis in a century. He introduced and passed transformative tenants rights protections, including the first-in-the-nation Right to Counsel, which guarantees tenants at risk of eviction with legal representation if they cannot afford a lawyer.&nbsp; In 2022, Mark was elected Manhattan Borough President, where he led the fight to end our affordability crisis. He identified opportunities for tens of thousands of new units of housing, advocated for new policies that will help create badly needed affordable housing, and fought to protect tenants so they can stay in their homes. He has launched campaigns to plant a million more trees and deliver millions of dollars of low-interest loans to small businesses, and has pushed the city to improve our mental health system, ensure New Yorkers can travel quickly and safely on our streets, and prepare for climate change.&nbsp; Mark lives in Upper Manhattan with his wife and two kids, who are studying to be a nurse and EMT. In his free time, Mark spends time with his family and likes to study languages. He speaks Spanish and Hebrew fluently, and is studying Greek and French.

MEET MARK LEVINE

“New Yorkers are facing a crisis of affordability and attacks from Donald Trump and his MAGA agenda. I’m running for Comptroller to tackle our affordability crisis, fight Trump and restore confidence that our government can deliver for hard working New York families.I bring the lessons I learned as a teacher, the skills I developed as the founder of a credit union, and the priorities I’ve championed as Borough President to ensure that our City is a place that’s liveable and affordable for all. I’ll be a fierce, independent fighter for our communities, a protector of our pensions, and an independent voice who will hold City Hall and Washington accountable. The future of New York is on the line. Let’s roll up our sleeves and get to work.”

The NYC Affordability Fund aims to address the housing crisis by investing up to $2.5 billion to create or preserve 75,000 affordable homes over the next decade. Key proposals include establishing the fund through Economically Targeted Investments, implementing a 'Housing is Core' agenda, removing investment limits on affordable housing, and eliminating the Low-Income Housing Tax Credit cap. Mark Levine, as Comptroller, is committed to ensuring strong returns for pension funds while tackling the affordability crisis in New York City.

New York is known for its grit, and New Yorkers for our resilience. But recently, quality of life has declined, especially for middle-class and working families. Our streets feel dirtier, neighborhoods louder, sidewalks more obstructed, and commutes longer. Life in New York doesn’t have to be this hard.From improving green spaces and tackling noise complaints, to addressing sanitation issues and taking down years-old scaffolding, Mark is tackling issues that impact the quality of daily life for us all–and getting real results. As Comptroller, he will use the office’s oversight powers to restore your confidence that the government truly is addressing the everyday challenges across every community.<img src="https://run.imgix.net/0e4d7860-e24e-48c2-aee1-fc4c5f6c0038/deae9019-1069-4c7b-9396-d0218f6738df/deae9019-1069-4c7b-9396-d0218f6738df.jpeg?ixlib=js-3.8.0&amp;bri=0&amp;con=0&amp;sat=0&amp;high=0&amp;shad=0&amp;usm=0&amp;rect=301%2C264%2C6707%2C4408&amp;w=1500" alt="" caption="" align="center" alignwidth="50" tiltdirection="left" variant="framed">

We deserve neighborhoods that feel safe. As Comptroller, Mark will invest in programs that will make us safer while also investing in fair and effective community policing in every precinct. This will include pushing to fill the 3,000 NYPD vacancies currently in the police force so that precincts are fully staffed and able to deploy effective community policing strategies that keep our neighborhoods safe.&nbsp;He will also use the powers of the office to improve efficiency and reduce the reliance on overtime.<img src="https://run.imgix.net/0e4d7860-e24e-48c2-aee1-fc4c5f6c0038/0ada9621-7dd2-4be1-ac80-2eb0f5bd2378/0ada9621-7dd2-4be1-ac80-2eb0f5bd2378.jpeg?ixlib=js-3.8.0&amp;bri=0&amp;con=0&amp;sat=0&amp;high=0&amp;shad=0&amp;usm=0&amp;rect=0%2C1010%2C4771%2C3159&amp;w=1500" alt="" caption="" align="center" alignwidth="50" tiltdirection="left" variant="framed">

Headline goes here

Every New Yorker should have access to the healthcare they need, from mental healthcare to preventive care. Yet, whether because it’s unaffordable or inaccessible, for too many of our neighbors, the care they need is simply out of reach.Mark served as the Chair of the Council’s Health Committee, where he helped lead the city through the worst days of the pandemic by providing clear, science-based information to New Yorkers when they most needed it. As Borough President, he worked to help people in need of behavioral healthcare get the support they need, including creating over 800 new in-patient psychiatric care beds.As Comptroller, Mark will work to ensure that every neighborhood has local access to affordable, high quality healthcare. We must fight to keep vitally important, community hospitals open, hold private hospital systems accountable, and address the root causes of long emergency room wait times and emergency response times.<img src="https://run.imgix.net/0e4d7860-e24e-48c2-aee1-fc4c5f6c0038/3a9c6cf8-b468-4f67-9986-9567d5ffc73e/3a9c6cf8-b468-4f67-9986-9567d5ffc73e.jpeg?ixlib=js-3.8.0&amp;bri=0&amp;con=0&amp;sat=0&amp;high=0&amp;shad=0&amp;usm=0&amp;rect=0%2C0%2C4240%2C2832&amp;w=1500" alt="" caption="" align="center" alignwidth="50" tiltdirection="left" variant="framed">

ACCESSING AFFORDABLE HEALTHCARE

With the uncertainty that Trump’s second term brings, New Yorkers need to be able to rely on their local government to efficiently serve and support them. We need City government to fight against Trump’s agenda, not cozy up for political favor.&nbsp;As Comptroller, Mark will be an independent check on City Hall and ensure city government is accountable to New Yorkers. He will audit and review agency practices to root out waste and corruption, modernize the use of technology, and ensure government is meeting the everyday needs of our neighbors.<img src="https://run.imgix.net/0e4d7860-e24e-48c2-aee1-fc4c5f6c0038/57e5274b-772b-4f4b-bd06-efafef5eb6b4/57e5274b-772b-4f4b-bd06-efafef5eb6b4.png?ixlib=js-3.8.0&amp;bri=0&amp;con=0&amp;sat=0&amp;high=0&amp;shad=0&amp;usm=0&amp;rect=0%2C0%2C1386%2C925&amp;w=1500" alt="" caption="" align="center" alignwidth="50" tiltdirection="left" variant="framed">

HOLDING GOVERNMENT ACCOUNTABLE

New Yorkers of every income level need to be able to raise their families, retire with dignity, and prosper in neighborhoods across the five boroughs. But we’re in the middle of the worst housing crisis in NYC history, and we need to take immediate action to lower skyrocketing rents, protect tenants and make the City affordable.Mark Levine has been fighting to address this crisis for years. He passed landmark tenant protections, including the first-in-the-nation Right to Counsel legislation, which guarantees legal representation to tenants in housing court and has helped countless New Yorkers avoid eviction and stay in their homes.He has helped create thousands of residential units in Manhattan, reforming outdated zoning laws, and identifying opportunities for tens of thousands of new homes. As Comptroller, Mark will fight for a more affordable City by ensuring we adequately fund and develop affordable housing so that New York, and everyone lucky enough to call it home, can continue to thrive. He’s the only candidate with a real plan to invest $2.5 billion to create or preserve 75,000 affordable homes over the next decade.<a href="https://www.scribd.com/document/835647626/The-NYC-Affordability-Fund" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">See our new proposal, the The New York City Affordability Fund here.</a><img src="https://run.imgix.net/0e4d7860-e24e-48c2-aee1-fc4c5f6c0038/3a494cdb-45c0-4fea-bacf-040fd9afaa20/3a494cdb-45c0-4fea-bacf-040fd9afaa20.png?ixlib=js-3.8.0&amp;bri=0&amp;con=0&amp;sat=0&amp;high=0&amp;shad=0&amp;usm=0&amp;rect=0%2C0%2C746%2C991&amp;w=1500" alt="affordability fund nyc mark levine" caption="" align="center" alignwidth="50" tiltdirection="right" variant="framed">

SOLVING OUR HOUSING CRISIS

Every one of our children deserves the gold-standard of public education, regardless of the zip code they live in. &nbsp;As a former bilingual math and science teacher in the Bronx and public school parent, Mark understands both how sacred that promise is, but also how far our schools are from keeping it.But the Trump administration has already begun attacking teachers and our children. We need a strong, fierce fighter who will protect our school budgets from Trump’s agenda of cruelty and mayhem.&nbsp;&nbsp;As Comptroller, Mark will hold City Hall and Trump accountable to our children. He’ll fight to ensure that&nbsp; every student gets access to the programs and specialized support they are entitled to, ensure the Department of Education keeps class sizes small,&nbsp; and vastly expand our city’s early childcare infrastructure to ensure that every child has access to affordable care.<img src="https://run.imgix.net/0e4d7860-e24e-48c2-aee1-fc4c5f6c0038/c49ca988-c6f3-42c4-ae58-de895712b1cc/c49ca988-c6f3-42c4-ae58-de895712b1cc.jpeg?ixlib=js-3.8.0&amp;bri=0&amp;con=0&amp;sat=0&amp;high=0&amp;shad=0&amp;usm=0&amp;rect=0%2C0%2C7008%2C4672&amp;w=1500" alt="" caption="" align="center" alignwidth="50" tiltdirection="right" variant="framed">

ENSURING ACCESS TO A HIGH QUALITY EDUCATION

We used to measure time in a “New York minute,” but whether you’re waiting on MTA delays, stuck in traffic, or trying to walk or bike to your destination, traveling around the city safely and quickly is increasingly hard. This reality holds us all back.Mark has fought to improve subway reliability and accessibility; deploy safety infrastructure on subway platforms; make our sidewalks safer; invest in infrastructure so that cyclists, motorists and pedestrians can safely share the road; and reduce congestion so that our buses, emergency vehicles and other users of the street can travel safely. As Comptroller, Mark will continue to make it easier for New Yorkers to get where they’re going, no matter the time of day or distance they need to travel.<img src="https://run.imgix.net/0e4d7860-e24e-48c2-aee1-fc4c5f6c0038/b8b4e733-78af-4f85-b136-85731cbe596b/b8b4e733-78af-4f85-b136-85731cbe596b.jpeg?ixlib=js-3.8.0&amp;bri=0&amp;con=0&amp;sat=0&amp;high=0&amp;shad=0&amp;usm=0&amp;rect=0%2C0%2C2000%2C1500&amp;w=1500" alt="" caption="" align="center" alignwidth="50" tiltdirection="right" variant="framed">

GETTING OUR TRANSIT WORKING

The City owes hundreds of millions of dollars to human service organizations, nonprofits, and community-based organizations that provide emergency food distribution, legal assistance, homeless services, mental health support, and elder care and more. That is an unacceptable way to treat organizations that are doing vital work on behalf of the city.&nbsp;As Comptroller, Mark will work to reform our contract payment process so that beloved organizations supporting vulnerable New Yorkers aren’t left in the lurch. His plan, “No More Delays,” proposes reforming procurement and payment rules, requiring specific timelines for agencies to provide payment, and more.&nbsp;<a href="https://www.scribd.com/document/845999923/Contractor-Payment-Plan" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">Read our full report, No More Delays, here. </a><img src="https://run.imgix.net/0e4d7860-e24e-48c2-aee1-fc4c5f6c0038/e439c731-ff4a-4eef-8c20-c3ebebeb19cd/e439c731-ff4a-4eef-8c20-c3ebebeb19cd.png?ixlib=js-3.8.0&amp;bri=0&amp;con=0&amp;sat=0&amp;high=0&amp;shad=0&amp;usm=0&amp;rect=0%2C0%2C614%2C665&amp;w=1500" alt="" caption="" align="center" alignwidth="50" tiltdirection="right" variant="framed">

PAYING HUMAN SERVICE ORGANIZATIONS ON TIME

A heartbreaking mental health crisis is playing out on our streets and subways. Many New Yorkers who are experiencing serious mental illnesses, like untreated schizophrenia and bipolar disorder, are cycling from the street to the emergency room and back to the street. This is a failure to both those most in need of help, and to our communities.&nbsp;Mark has championed the creation of new, badly needed in-patient psychiatric care beds so that we stop using emergency rooms and Rikers Island for behavioral healthcare. As Comptroller, he’ll work to create more in-patient beds, and improve pay and standards for social workers, psychologists and mental healthcare workers so that we have the capacity to provide care for every New Yorker, rather than allow this heartbreaking cycle to continue.<a href="https://www.amny.com/opinion/breaking-the-mental-health-crisis-cycle/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">Op-Ed | Breaking the mental health crisis cycle | amNewYork</a><img src="https://run.imgix.net/0e4d7860-e24e-48c2-aee1-fc4c5f6c0038/809a7d26-9f20-4276-97b8-8712e92c0478/809a7d26-9f20-4276-97b8-8712e92c0478.png?ixlib=js-3.8.0&amp;bri=0&amp;con=0&amp;sat=0&amp;high=0&amp;shad=0&amp;usm=0&amp;rect=0%2C0%2C1200%2C1200&amp;w=1500" alt="" caption="" align="center" alignwidth="50" tiltdirection="right" variant="framed">

Donald Trump, Elon Musk and the extreme MAGA Congress are implementing an agenda of cruelty and chaos that is putting New Yorkers at risk. Trump is taking money from city coffers, going after our most vulnerable neighbors, targeting municipal and federal workers, and putting our city’s finances and economy at risk. Meanwhile, Mayor Adams has remained silent.&nbsp; Donald Trump is diametrically opposed to everything New York City stands for and is waging a lawless assault on our city and our values. New York needs leaders ready to stand up and fight back to protect our communities, our finances and our values.&nbsp; As Comptroller, Mark will fight against federal funding cuts to vital programs like Medicaid, Section 8, emergency food assistance, and ensure New York City protects our most vulnerable New Yorkers, including LGBTQ+ youth, immigrants and migrants who call New York home, low-income New Yorkers, working class folks&nbsp; and more.<a href="https://www.amny.com/opinion/trump-wants-wollman-rink-back-new-yorkers-say-no/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">Op-Ed | Trump wants Wollman Rink back—New Yorkers say no</a><img src="https://run.imgix.net/0e4d7860-e24e-48c2-aee1-fc4c5f6c0038/157d10a7-10ae-4cbc-830b-42f9d10ad9d5/157d10a7-10ae-4cbc-830b-42f9d10ad9d5.png?ixlib=js-3.8.0&amp;bri=0&amp;con=0&amp;sat=0&amp;high=0&amp;shad=0&amp;usm=0&amp;rect=0%2C0%2C1200%2C1200&amp;w=1500" alt="" caption="" align="center" alignwidth="50" tiltdirection="left" variant="framed">
