To State Senator Jessica Ramos:

Steve Cohen’s firm New Green Willets seeks one of the State’s 3 casino licenses to build a casino next to Citi Field that would privatize over 50 acres of NYC-owned public parkland and exploit local communities. Our public land should be for the benefit of all of us, not for a casino that will destroy families and our communities. From now until the end of the state legislative session on June 8th, you have the power to prevent this casino project by not introducing any parkland alienation legislation. As the State Senate representative for Citi Field, we are calling on you to:

1. NOT introduce parkland alienation to take away public land
2. Publicly OPPOSE a casino in Flushing Meadows Corona Park

We know your long record of standing with our communities, and look forward to soon hearing that you will be standing with us again now.
