Italian American leaders from across Staten Island gathered today at Casa Belvedere — The Italian Cultural Foundation — to endorse Andrew M. Cuomo for Mayor of New York City, citing his deep respect for all communities, his record of public service, and his steadfast defense of New York’s diverse cultural heritage.
“New York City’s greatest strength is its diversity and its magic is that so many cultures can occupy the same sliver of rock and live together, learn together and celebrate each other, Cuomo said. “Im a proud member of the Italian community and I’m honored to have the support of these great leaders. I will be a mayor for them and for all New Yorkers.”
