I'm really excited about the Bronx nominee, someone who I know works for a very reputable organization, but I think it's about time that we have someone in the Bronx who understands the actual issues that are happening in our local hospitals and, has made a commitment to come back to our local council members so that we can assist to ensure that, these hospitals, HEC hospitals in the borough of the Bronx are actually getting the real resources that they need, so that we can continue to service, members in the Bronx and in the city of New York.
