BRIAN GOTLIEB = EXPERIENCE & RESULTS.
As an unsalaried elected member of Community School Board 21, I have focused my energies on the issue of child safety and have:

• Secured additional crossing guards at busy intersections and the assignment of additional school safety officers to protect children and teachers from intruders;
  
  
• Secured the installation of stop signs and traffic lights at unsafe intersections; and,
  
  
• Hosted several “Child Safety Programs” to provide parents with free Polaroid pictures of their children along with copies of their fingerprints to give law enforcement personnel in an emergency.
  

For the last five years, I have served as Deputy Chief of Staff to my mentor, Congressman Anthony Weiner. I supervise the resolution of constituent concerns and work on issues that are vital to seniors who live in our community, including:

• Increasing the annual Social Security Cost of Living Adjustment;
  
  
• Providing Medicare recipients with affordable prescription drugs; and,
  
  
• Fighting the skyrocketing costs of private Medicare Supplementary Insurance premiums.

Our community needs, and deserves, a Councilman who will address the needs and concerns of his constituents on a full time basis. I pledge to be that Councilman. My experience with Congressman Weiner, and on the School Board, has taught me how to effectively cut through the “red tape” of government bureaucracy to provide constituents the services they need and deserve.

Thank you in advance for your consideration. I invite you to call me at 718-996-5668 or write me at Gotlieb2001@aol.com with your advice, ideas or questions.
