North Brooklynites are asking their neighbors to stand up against what they say is the division of their neighborhoods ahead of an Independent Redistricting Commission hearing in Brooklyn on Wednesday.
The proposed map cleaves Assembly District 50, which encompasses Williamsburg and Greenpoint, in half, adding the eastern portion to AD38, a Queens-based district represented by Assembly Member Jenifer Rajkumar. The new AD38 includes parts of Williamsburg and Greenpoint, Long Island City, Maspeth, Glendale, and Rego Park.
