A socialist candidate is challenging "zionist AIPAC Ritchie Torres" in New York City.

Saturday, November 8, 2025, Bronx, Lenapehoking (New York City) - Andre Easton is running for the United States Congress to represent New York's 15th Congressional District in the Bronx.

On November 8, 2025, it was the first "Andre Volunteer Meet-Up." People gathered at 861 Gerard Ave. They will be there from 3 PM to 5 PM, on November 8, Saturday, November 15, and Saturday, November 22, 2025. 4, D trains to 161 St-Yankee Stadium.

Andre has been marching in support of Gaza and all of Palestine and against the Israel-USA HOLOCAUST against Indigenous Palestinians in Gaza.

"Andre Easton has taught English in South Bronx public schools for 12 years. As a father of three and a high school educator, Andre knows firsthand how much working people in the Bronx give to this economy, and how little we get back. Andre is running for Congress to represent New York’s 15th Congressional District to build a movement powerful enough to transform our neighborhoods, and the entire world. NY-15 needs more than change—we need a whole new system," says Andre on his website https://www.andreforthebronx.nyc/

"On the heels of Zohran’s win, another socialist, this one challenging Ritchie Torres, is in the streets asking Bronx residents about their priorities," said Briahna Joy Gray on X (Twitter), on November 5, 2025. https://x.com/briebriejoy/status/1986236157345054731

The general election in New York City was on Tuesday, November 4, 2025. Democratic socialist Zohran Kwame Mamdani (a member of the Democratic Party) won and he will be the next NYC mayor, starting on January 1st, 2026.

On October 24, 2025, Andre said on his Facebook page, "Ritchie Torres wants to “maintain the status quo” in the Bronx.

For NY-15, that means Torres pockets over $1.4 million from pro-Israel billionaires and AIPAC while 37% of children in the district live in poverty – double the national rate.

While Torres’ donors get richer, the students I teach and their families in the Bronx are crushed by groceries, rent, and everyday costs. We should be funding the people, not war and genocide in Palestine.

My name is Andre Easton, and I’m running for Congress to represent New York’s 15th Congressional District.

The status quo is for the billionaires, but working people own the future. And the future starts in the Bronx.
