After over a decade in the New York state Senate, Brad Hoylman-Sigal — who frequently described his west side of Manhattan district as extending “from gay bars to Zabar’s” — will be leaving his post to take on a new job as Manhattan borough president.
Over the last 12 years, Hoylman-Sigal, who chaired the Senate Judiciary Committee, sponsored some major pieces of legislation including the Gender Expression Non-Discrimination Act (GENDA) and the Medical Aid in Dying Act, which the governor intends to sign in January.
He sat for an exit interview with Capital Tonight’s Susan Arbetter.
