Amsterdam News Endorses Tapper

September 8, 2005
Marlene J. Tapper is new on the horizon, and her program includes stopping illegal home conversion; increasing staffing at local precincts; increasing education opportunities for children, unemployed adults and new immigrants; and establishing affordable day care and health care for seniors and children.
