Koppell’s candidacy appears to falter G. Oliver Koppell’s longshot campaign to unseat State Senator Jeff Klein saw several major setbacks this week. State Senator Klein picked up the endorsement of Mayor Bill de Blasio this past week. Mayor de Blasio threw his support behind the Independent Democratic Conference leader over the former Attorney General and City Council Member, dealing a major blow to the “progressive” rationale behind Koppell’s campaign. “Throughout this past session, Sen. Jeff Klein...worked tirelessly on behalf of the residents of New York City and helped make progress on issues that had been stalled for far too long,” Mayor de Blasio said in a statement. “As part of a united Democratic majority in the State Senate, I look forward to working with Sen. Klein...as we work to implement a progressive agenda, including increasing the minimum wage, expanding affordable housing, ensuring women’s equality, passing the DREAM Act and much more.” For his part, State Senator Klein was thrilled to pick of the backing of the first-year mayor. “As Co-leader of the State Senate, I partnered with Mayor de Blasio to deliver $300 million for full day Universal Pre-K, brought home 120 additional speed cameras for school zones and passed life-saving legislation to reduce the City’s speed limit, a crucial piece of his Vision Zero plan. We both agree that there’s still more work to be done including, passing the DREAM Act, protecting a woman’s right to choose and enacting real, meaningful campaign finance reform. I’m honored to receive his endorsement and look forward to achieving more Democratic victories for all New Yorkers,” said State Senator Klein. In contrast, Koppell attacked the endorsement, and claimed that he was the only

candidate who could bring true Democratic Party leadership to Albany. “One cannot make deals with individuals whose track record points only to untrustworthiness--individuals who make promises in an attempt to avoid primaries,” said Koppell. Koppell, who filed a respectable 5,000 signatures to qualify for the ballot in September, also saw the Working Families Party officially switch from supporting his campaign to going neutral, and saw the State Senate’s Democratic Conference officially back away from his candidacy. ”While we consider Oliver Koppell a great progressive leader and a dedicated public servant, the Senate Democrats will not be supporting Oliver Koppell in his primary run,” said State Senate Democratic Leader Andrea

Stewart-Cousins this week. “We will continue working as coalition partners in the days to come to avoid unnecessary distractions and strengthen our mutual efforts to elect more Democrats and enact the progressive agenda that remains incomplete.” The official Democratic supports comes after the recent deal between Senate Democrats and the IDC that ensures the two groups will work to form a coalition in the next legislative session. In exchange, State Senator Klein announced that he would not support City Council Member Fernando Cabrera in his bid to unseat State Senator Gustavo Rivera. “The Independent Democratic Conference’s main goal is to elect Democrats who share a progressive vision for the Senate come November,” said State Senator Klein.

“While Fernando Cabrera’s a hardworking elected official who has fought in the City Council for his constituents, he falls short on key litmus test issues supported by all the members of the I.D.C. and important to a coalition that accomplishes these goals. We cannot support his candidacy.” Council Member Cabrera has been surrounded by considerable controversy in recent months. Late last year, evidence surfaced that he sought to block the construction of the Kingsbridge National Ice Center at the Kingsbridge Armory unless a major contribution was made to an organization he controlled. Several weeks ago, it was revealed that Council Member Cabrera had appeared on a radio show of the Family Research Council, which was

labeled a hate group by the Southern Poverty Law Center four years ago. In positive news, Koppell showed his gratitude to those who signed his petitions, and promised to be victorious in September. “I am grateful to the 84 volunteers who served as petition carriers for this campaign to win back the 34th State Senate seat for a progressive Democratic agenda,” said Koppell. State Senator Klein also picked up the endorsement of the New York State Troopers Police Benevolent Association this week. “We proudly endorse Senator Klein for reelection again this year. Senator Klein has once again proved that he can navigate through Albany’s dynamic political road map with proven results,” said union said president Thomas Mungeer.

Bronx Borough President Ruben Diaz Jr. addressed the participants in the “Bronx 100 Scavenger Hunt” prior to the events kickoff on Saturday, July 12. The event saw 25 teams from all over the region showcase their knowledge of Bronx history and culture, with a grand prize of $2,500 awarded to the winner.

Women’s Wellness Program at RSS

Senator Klein stands with seniors participating in the newly created Women’s Wellness Program at Riverdale Senior Services. State Senate Coalition Co-Leader Jeff Klein (D-Bronx/Westchester) announced a $100,000 grant he secured for Riverdale Senior Services that will go towards a newly created Women’s Wellness program open to women across the Bronx. While weekly wellness sessions have already started, a comprehensive 10-week program featuring fitness classes and a self-assessment component will launch in the fall. The program will be based on the federal program SHE (Strong. Healthy. Energized.), specifically designed for women 60 and over and is designed to benefit women of all ranges of mobility. The announcement was made directly following a weekly wellness session in the exercise room where the program will primarily take place. At the announcement, Senator Klein was joined by Riverdale Senior Services Executive Director Julia Schwartz-Leeper, Geriatric Social Worker Patricia Werlau, LMSW and participating seniors. State Senator Jeff Klein said, “The research is clear: developing healthy habits now will help fend off mental and physical issues later. That’s why I am proud that Riverdale Senior Services, which has been a touchstone of senior health and well-being in the Riverdale community for decades is launching a Women’s Wellness Program for local seniors. With the grant I secured, RSS will provide education tools and programming tailored for older women, while also giving participants a forum for focusing on their health in a fun, open environment. RSS’ program will go a long way towards arming older women with the tools, time and resources essential to creating a healthy, balanced lifestyle.” The announcement marked the second grant in a row secured by Senator Klein for Riverdale Senior Services. The initial funding has been used to refurbish the exercise room, computer lab and create walking/running track on the terrace. Riverdale Senior Services Executive Director Julia Schwartz-Leeper said, “On behalf of Riverdale Senior Services, I am proud to launch this comprehensive wellness program for older women. Here at RSS, we have seniors who fall within a 40 year span, 75 percent of whom are women. I believe that this program, which would not have been possible without Senator Klein, will provide concrete, instruction and direction for the participating women. With this new wellness program, RSS is demonstrating that we offer a true range of programming for our seniors and I encourage women from across the Bronx to contact us to learn more.” Patricia Werlau, Geriatric Social Worker, LMSW, Riverdale Senior Services said, “I have been privileged to work with a group of resilient woman these past several months. We have met weekly identifying wellness goals and supporting one another to achieve individual goals. The programs and services provided by RSS offer so many opportunities for healthy living and the grant money secured by Senator Klein had been put to good use as evidenced by the improvements in the facility and our new wellness program.”

Engel supports Israel’s right to defend itself

3 The RIVERDALE REVIEW • Thursday, July 17, 2014

Congressman Eliot Engel spoke at a rally outside of City Hall hosted by the Jewish Community Relations Council of New York. New York City Council Member Andrew Cohen was also in attendance. Congressman Eliot Engel, the top Democrat on the House Foreign Affairs Committee, reiterated his support for Israel’s right to defend itself at a rally outside of City Hall hosted by the Jewish Community Relations Council of New York. “New York has seen the face of terrorism. No one can forget September 11, 2001, a day when terrorists attacked our city, and the very heart of our nation. America has taken steps to defend herself and her citizens against future attacks, much like Israel has been forced to do since its very existence. “Hamas is a terrorist organization

with no other mission than to destroy Israel, the only democracy in the Middle East. Civilian casualties are of no concern to Hamas, and their use of human shields is a crime against the Palestinian people. “Israel cannot -- nor should not -- stand idly by as Hamas rockets rain down on its cities. There is strong bipartisan support for Israel in Congress, and America must stand with our strongest ally in the Middle East as she seeks to protect her citizens. We must reject the voices of hatred and extremism that seek to harm us or our allies.”

5 The RIVERDALE REVIEW • Thursday, July 17, 2014

Educational Landmarks I: Maritime College Since 1965, when the New York City Landmarks Preservation Commission was created, several buildings of historic importance were marked for preservation. In The Bronx, some of these were designed for, or subsequently used for, educational purposes. Through their preservation, we can often gain insight into the importance residents placed on educating their youngsters and how they were educated. The oldest of these Bronx educational landmarks can be found on the campus of the New York State Maritime College of the State University of New York. It is at the tip of Throggs Neck. Originally, the school was not a college, or was it in The Bronx. It was the idea of naval Commander Stephen Bleeker Luce. He campaigned for a school to train officers for the merchant marine. He believed that this would be a training ground for future naval officers if a war should ever break out. In 1874, Congress passed a law establishing the school, and Luce secured a ship, the St. Mary’s, to train the pupils. It was first anchored in the East River at 23rd Street. The school was placed under the city’s Board of

Education in 1907 and put on the gunboat, USS Newport. The state took control in 1921 and moved the ship to the Statue of Liberty, and the, in 1929, to the Brooklyn Navy Yard. Governor Franklin D. Roosevelt suggested that Fort Schuyler in Throggs Neck be the school’s permanent home. The fort, designed by Captain I.L. Smith, was erected from 1833 to 1856 to protect the backdoor approach to New York City. Built of grey Connecticut granite, with walls up to eleven feet thick, it carried over 300 cannon. It was declared surplus property in 1931 and acquired for the school in 1934. The old fort was restored by various New Deal relief agencies. Located there, the school became a college and came under the State University system. As more buildings were erected on the campus, there was a need to convert the fort for modern educational use. From 1966 to 1967, the interior was redesigned by William A. Hall to house a library and offices. There are also classrooms, a planetarium and a museum of maritime history housed in Fort Schuyler, making it the oldest educational landmark in The Bronx.

As part of its new initiative ‘CCRB in the Boroughs,’ the NYC Civilian Complaint Review Board will have Spanish and Chinese-speaking investigators available to take police misconduct complaints in Flushing, Queens, at Immigrant Movement International, on July 15th. The CCRB will be at Immigrant Movement International, 108-89 Roosevelt Avenue, from 3:00 to 7:00 PM. From 3:00 to 4:00 PM, outreach staff will give a presentation about the services CCRB provides. From 4:00 to 7:00 pm, investigators will be available to take complaints. ‘We greatly appreciate partnering with Immigrant Movement International and thank them for their generosity in hosting this event. Having space in the boroughs where our staff can meet with community members is enormously helpful, ‘said Tracy Catapano-Fox, the Executive Director of the CCRB. The goal of the initiative, which was launched last month, is to accommodate

people who want to make a complaint in-person or who have already filed a complaint and aren’t able to travel during conventional business hours to CCRB’s lower Manhattan office for the in-person interview necessary for a case to move forward. Currently investigators conduct interviews at other locations in cases of hardship or if a complainant is incarcerated the CCRB sends an investigator to city jails to obtain a statement. The next location will be in the Bronx on July 29th at the office of NYC Councilman Andrew Cohen from 2:00 to 5:00 PM, 3636 Waldo Avenue, Riverdale. In August, CCRB investigators will be in East New York, Brooklyn, at the office of NYC Councilwoman Inez Barron from 3:00 to 7:00 PM. The CCRB’s first borough location was in Brooklyn, at the office of NYC Councilman Stephen Levin on June 24th. Though the CCRB currently has no budget to operate borough offices, the agency is establishing partnerships with local officials and organizations to find borrowed space where CCRB investigators

NYC CCRB to give out information

can meet with complainants. These future locations will also have a member of CCRB’s outreach staff available to provide information about the agency’s services, including its robust mediation program, and general information for civilians about street encounters with police. The NYC Civilian Complaint Review Board is an independent city agency, not a part of the police department. It is mandated by law to investigate and mediate complaints of misconduct by officers of the NYPD towards members of the public and to conduct investigations in a fair and unbiased manner. The CCRB takes complaints in person, by phone, online and by mail. More information is available on the agency’s web site: www.nyc.gov/ccrb

Thursday, July 17, 2014 • The RIVERDALE REVIEW

It’s all about Oliver

The last couple of weeks have been disastrous for Oliver Koppell, who hopes to reenter public life by challenging State Senator Jeff Klein. Two weeks ago, Koppell was crowing over his endorsement by the hard-left Working Families Party. We asked him why he would accept support from such a questionable organization with what we perceive as an extraordinarily out-of-touch discredited agenda. Koppell maintained that he was proud to be their candidate. Well, as someone once said, “pride goeth before the fall.” The WFP has withdrawn their support from Mr. Koppell, and has decided to stay neutral in the race. Not that their endorsement really means all that much. By the time a candidate appears on the WFP ballot line in the November election, the real decision will have already been made by voters in the September Democratic Primary election. Whoever is the Democratic candidate, will be the next State Senator. You can take that prediction to the bank. So the WFP has taken their worthless endorsement from Mr. Koppell. The fact that he was willing to accept it and perhaps challenge an opposing candidate chosen in a free and open election by Democratic Party voters shows how hollow his argument is that Mr. Klein is not adequately toeing the Democratic Party line. That, after all, is the presumptive reason for the Koppell candidacy in the first place. You see, party loyalty is an imperative for Mr. Koppell only when it serves his own personal agenda. Not only has Mr. Koppell lost the WFP endorsement, but the official Democratic Party State Senate leadership has withdrawn its support from his candidacy, which totally and completely removes even the most remote reason for the Koppell candidacy to even exist. But Mr. Koppell muddles on, with no real visible support except for some of the discredited remnants of the failed candidacy of Clifford Stanton in last year’s City Council race. What this shows is that the Koppell candidacy has never been about loyalty to the Democratic Party and its principles, but rather about the personal ambitions of Mr. Koppell. That has been underscored by the fact that now Mr. Klein has agreed to bring his Independent Democratic caucus into an alliance with mainstream Democrats. Frankly, we are disappointed. We like the idea of coalition government, with Democrats moving away from failed extreme ideology and willing to caucus Over the years, we have been very close to Mr. Koppell and respected his integrity. We understand how difficult his forced retirement due to term limits must be. We are sympathetic. After all, the editor of this newspaper looked on Mr, Koppell as a contemporary. After all, the former Councilman is just eight years his senior. We often reflect that Winston Churchill, perhaps the greatest figure of the Twentieth Century, was 65 when he became Prime Minister in 1940, and went on to be the moving force in what became both his and his country’s finest hour. None of us wants to feel compelled to retire due to the sands of time. But Mr. Koppell’s burning desire to once again be a public official is not a rationale to cast the clever and effective Mr. Klein aside. As we mentioned above, we favor the type of collaborative leadership we have gotten from Mr. Klein, who unlike Mr. Koppell, seems to have a kack for actually getting things done. We look again to Winston Churchill. The government he led in Britain during World War II, the government that won the War against Hitler and Nazi Germany against all odds, was a coalition government that was comprised of all factions. When things get tough in the great State of Israel, politicians of all stripes come together in unity to protect the nation. This is exactly what Senator Klein has and hopefully will continue to do here in New York State, which may not face an existential threat as dangerous as Britain or Israel has, but in its purely local way is still very important. Whatever little rationale for Mr. Koppell’s desperate quest to regain a public career as a backbencher in an ineffective legislature has seemingly gone. But then again, this has always been about Oliver Koppell and only about Oliver Koppell. The public interest has always been considered a distant second if at all.

Rep. Engel calls Highway Trust Fund Bill a ‘Band Aid’

Congressman Eliot Engel, a senior member of the House Energy and Commerce Committee, voted to reauthorize funding for the Highway Trust Fund, but says Congress must do more to work towards a long-term solution to avoid a potential shortfall next year. “This bill is little more than a band aid, but the alternative would have been far worse. If Congress failed to replenish funding for the Highway Trust Fund, then states would see an estimated 28 percent drop in federal financing for vital infrastructure projects. New projects would be halted, and much-needed repairs for existing roads and bridges would be delayed.” According to the White House, an estimated 23 percent of New York’s public roads are in poor condition. If Congress failed to renew the Highway Trust Fund then 48,389 jobs would be in jeopardy and 6,402 active highway and transit programs would either be slowed down or ceased. “I am disappointed that House Republicans opted for a quick-

fix rather than a multi-year transportation package. This bill only extends financing for the Highway Trust Fund through the end of next May so I am very concerned that we will be in a similar situation next year. “I have long called for Congress to do more to fix our aging infrastructure, and to do so with greater urgency. I can only hope that Republicans will be more willing to work on a comprehensive solution before May.”

NYS Troopers Assn. endorse Jeff Klein

The New York State Troopers Police Benevolent Association endorsed state Senator Jeff Klein (D-Bronx/Westchester) for reelection to the 34th State Senate District on Monday. “We proudly endorse Senator Klein for reelection again this year. Senator Klein has once again proved that he can navigate through Albany’s dynamic political road map with proven results,” said President Thomas Mungeer. “I’m honored to have the endorsement of the New York State Troopers Police Benevolent Association, whose hardworking
