Jasmine Brown:

“I have been interning for the finance/fundraising department of Kathleen Rice’s campaign for over a month now and this was the longest I听ever heard her speak to one audience. Usually she speaks on one specific topic, so it was nice to hear her cover a wide array of issues and听answer multiple questions.”

George Giakoumis:

“I was thrilled to experience a professional event like the LIMBA breakfast at the Alumni House. I found it to be a fascinating peek behind听the curtain, and it was certainly something I won鈥檛 soon forget. Specifically, hearing District Attorney Kathleen Rice鈥檚 speech was a great听opportunity, especially in light of her impending Congressional candidacy. I found that, having the opportunity to access the thought process听behind many of her views, I understood them more clearly. Further, I was empathetic with many of her pet projects, including increased听federal attention to the student loan problem, and her personal fight to end texting while driving. I am deeply thankful to Adelphi听University and its political science department for extending to me the opportunity to attend such a wonderful event.”

Cathy Rudell:

“I enjoyed listening to Kathleen Rice speak about the need for more bipartisanship in Congress. Her views related to a research paper on听political polarity I wrote last year entitled 鈥淧artisanship, Gridlock, and One-Party Domination.鈥� Rice wants members of Congress to reach听across the aisle by focusing less on their individual political views and more on the actual needs of the people. She understands that Americans听want a socially and fiscally responsible government no matter what their political ideologies are. I appreciated hearing her views on听topics that I am personally concerned with such as women鈥檚 rights and education reform. It was also interesting to learn about her tough听policies regarding DWI鈥檚, texting while driving, gun safety, and white-collar crime.”

Alexa Savino:

“The platform provided to Kathleen Rice by LIMBA and 91吃瓜网 allowed students to become more intimately acquainted with听her major legislative goals and priorities, namely enacting laws against drugged driving, alleviating burdens of student loan debt, improving听education, and addressing issues particular to the socioeconomic climate of Long Island. Her comment regarding the uniqueness of her听perspective regarding certain problems, as she considers them as a law enforcement official, will prove interesting as we observe her approach听to several key political issues in the coming months. Personally, having听the opportunity to ask Ms. Rice about the ways in which she听intends to incorporate women’s issues into her agenda was a great honor.”
