Breaking news: Rep. Clarke disses PLG!

In an email announcing a telephone town hall meeting, Rep. Yvette Clarke describes her district as

Borough Park, Brownsville, Brooklyn Heights, Caroll Gardens, Clinton Hill, Crown Heights, South Crown Heights, Cobble Hill, East Flatbush, Flatbush, Fort Greene, Gowanus, Kensington, Midwood, Park Slope, Prospect Heights, Red Hook, Sunset Park, Weeksville, Windsor Terrace & Wingate

Are we "Flatbush" again? Or are have we become part of "South Crown Heights"?

In all seriousness, the telephone Town Hall Meeting is on Wednesday, December 12 at 6:30PM 7:30PM (thanks, anon). Call in to 1-866-447-5149, PIN# 13319 if you have any questions, concerns or suggestions.

The email says that she is focusing on "federal issues," so this may not be the time to ask about speed humps (though one could argue that it is never the wrong time...). Topics that she specifically refers to are Iraq, the environment, ENDA (a proposed federal law to outlaw sexual orientation discrimination), No Child Left Behind, immigration and gun violence.

Yvette grew up on Midwood III--she should know better. [But then we've always been part of Flatbush, so it's no big deal IMO].

You won't be surprised to read that it isn't a big deal to us either.

All the info here is correct, except that the call starts at 7:30pm.
