About Luke
Luke Florczak, a former Marine Musician, studied Music Composition at the University of the Pacific and Political Science at John Jay College of Criminal Justice. He sits on the executive board for the Eleanor Roosevelt Independent Democrats (formerly Eleanor Roosevelt Democratic Club) and volunteered to carry out dozens of various campaign duties for sitting Councilman Keith Powers' most recent race. Luke advocates for the veteran community in New York City by working in the John Jay Office of Military and Veteran Services and supporting veteran organizations such as the New York Central Office for Veterans Affairs and Hope for the Warriors, a national non-profit dedicated to providing comprehensive support for service members, veterans, and their families
Having served honorably in the United States Marine Corps, Luke knows what it means to represent something bigger than oneself. He hopes to be a voice for the almost quarter million veterans that lack a proper voice in the city council and the thousands of New Yorkers who he's had the privilege to call neighbor for the last several years. The issues faced by veterans living in the city are not theirs alone; homelessness, public safety, better access to health services, and affordable housing options are issues our district shares. By tackling these issues in our community, Luke hopes to also effect change for all veterans in the city.
As a musician and author, Luke understands the power that the arts can have in government and sees the arts as fundamental to a thriving community. Luke believes creative ideas to the challenging issues we face today are the way toward robust, long-lasting solutions.
