Brooklyn Borough President Antonio Reynoso is vying for a second term in office.

"I made my career fighting against power and the powers that be when they don't work for us," he said.

The son of Dominican immigrants who was raised in the southside Williamsburg neighborhood known as Los Sures, he is the youngest person elected as Brooklyn BP and the first Latino.

Reynoso said education will remain a top priority if he is elected to another four-year term, having fought most recently to keep four early education centers open in the borough, including the one he attended in the 1980s named Nuestros Niños Day Care Center.

The former city council member said he also wants more resources for neurodivergent children, an issue close to his heart as the father of a child on the autism spectrum.

"So we're going to be helping out as well with sensory rooms and really making it so that the parents that have a student in a D75 school, that their school's infrastructure, they are also going to be top-notch," he said.

Reynoso said he would continue to fight disparities in public health, having made Black maternal health a cornerstone issue in his first term.

"Brooklyn is the most dangerous place for Black women to have babies in the City of New York and I wanted to change that," he said.

Reynoso said he is also focused on providing more affordable housing, resources for mental health and equitable development.
