(Brooklyn, NY) - Brooklyn Council Member Letitia James, representing the 35th District of Brooklyn, is re-launching her website at www.letitiajames.info. As with its predecessor, the website will be a source of information on the Council District as well as on Council Member James herself.

Council Member James is known for being accessible to her constituents, and is often referred to informally by the name “Tish.” As such, the blog will be open for comments from constituents.

Team Tish represents my message, all the things I stand for and fight for in my district - fair and affordable housing, equal rights, educational and job opportunities,” said Council Member James adding, “If you stand with me on these issues, you are a part of Team Tish.”

The blog will also serve as a source of up-to-date information on Council Member James’ press events in the interest of assisting media outlets.
