Mike Zapiti, immigrated
to the United States at the end of 1946.
After years of hard work, dedication and understanding,
he became a successful businessman with a reputation
of being an activist and a fighter for the community
where he’s worked and lived for over 37 years.
In 1966, he was instrumental in convincing the Department
of Motor Vehicles to give the written exams for
Licensing in several languages such as Italian,
Greek, etc. in order to help the new immigrants
get their driving privileges as soon as possible.
This offered opportunities to our new immigrants
to make a decent living in this country.
He is a strong supporter of improving the quality
of Education and is concerned about the safety
of children in our schools.
Mike feels that the Senior Citizens need a voice
in politics. They need someone who cares about
their safety and quality of life.
The problem of drugs should be addressed.
He is the only immigrant running for this area.
Mike is a man who understands the problems facing
small businesses and is willing to help them.
