StreetsPAC is a political action committee dedicated to improving the safety, mobility and livability of one of New York City’s greatest assets: its streets. Our sidewalks, roadways and plazas account for the majority of all public space in the five boroughs, and are a precious resource to be shared and enjoyed by all. 

We took the political world by storm in New York City's 2013 municipal elections, endorsing 21 candidates in the September primary, 16 of whom were victorious, and an additional six in the general election, five of whom also won. On the ground, we registered and turned out voters, and built grassroots support for Mayor Bill de Blasio's Vision Zero program to eliminate traffic deaths. During the 2017 city election cycle, 16 of the 23 candidates we endorsed won their races.

More recently, in the 2018 general election, our endorsees were a perfect 10 for 10 in races for the New York State Senate and Assembly, and in 2020, all 21 of the candidates we endorsed in the general election won their races, including five new members of the Legislature whom we backed in highly competitive primary races.

Founded by a team of the city’s most committed advocates, StreetsPAC backs candidates who support redesigning city streets to prioritize safety; increased and improved transit access for all New Yorkers; parking and toll reform; more thorough crash investigations; and better, more equitable enforcement of traffic laws, especially through increased deployment of automated speed and red-light cameras.

Please donate today to help us continue this critical work in 2026 and beyond!

StreetsPAC is registered with the New York State Board of Elections and the New York City Campaign Finance Board.

• StreetsPAC's Testimony to City Council on Vision Zero

  Posted by Eric McClure · October 28, 2026 2:15 PM

  Yesterday, we testified at the New York City Council Committee on Transportation and Infrastructure's oversight hearing on Vision Zero. The hearing was billed as an evaluation of the city's street-safety strategy, and came six weeks after the Mamdani administration released Vision Zero Reimagined, its blueprint for building on the city's original 2014 Vision Zero plan. The hearing also covered several pieces of legislation, including Intro 1070-2026, Committee Chair Shaun Abreu's bill that would create a pilot program for low-traffic neighborhoods, and Intro 1153-2026, sponsored by Brooklyn Council Member Kayla Santosuosso, which would implement the "Stop Super Speeders" program authorized this year by the state legislature.

  Our full testimony follows below.

• StreetsPAC's 2026 New York State General Election Voter Guide

  Posted by Eric McClure · October 20, 2026 11:54 AM

  We're excited to bring you our 2026 New York State general election voter guide, featuring our endorsements of 39 candidates running statewide – nine for the State Senate and 30 for Assembly seats – along with an endorsement in the lone New York City Council race and recommendations on two of New York City's five ballot proposals.

  Our endorsees include 14 incumbents, five candidates challenging sitting officeholders, and 20 candidates, several of whom defeated incumbents in primaries, vying for open seats. For the first time since we launched StreetsPAC in 2013, we are endorsing a truly statewide slate of candidates who are running in races from Suffolk County to Erie County.

  We began to look at races across the state in earnest in 2024, and the number of candidate questionnaire responses we received from beyond New York City more than quadrupled this year. We've expanded the scope of our work for two reasons. First, many of New York City's most important street-safety and transportation measures, including our speed and red-light camera programs and MTA funding, require state legislative approval; and secondly, cities, towns and villages across New York State stand to benefit from complete-streets initiatives, reduced speed limits, and development of multi-use paths, among many other policies, the same way New York City does.

  In-person early voting for the November 3 general election begins this coming Saturday, October 24, which is also the deadline to register to vote in the election if you are not already a registered voter. If you live within New York City's five boroughs, you can check your registration status, confirm your early-voting and election-day polling locations, and find other important election-related information at vote.nyc. If you live elsewhere in New York State, you can find similar information at elections.ny.gov. We've included links to Ballotpedia entries, which include maps, for each of the districts in which we're endorsing, listed in the individual endorsement statements that follow below.

  Early voting will continue daily through Sunday, November 1, with varying hours, in advance of election day on November 3, when polls will be open from 6 a.m. to 9 p.m. You can confirm your early-voting and election day voting sites, which may be different, and check early-voting hours at findmypollsite.vote.nyc if you vote in New York City, and at voterlookup.elections.ny.gov if you vote anywhere else in New York State.

  We couldn't be more thrilled about this slate of candidates, both in the degree of their commitment to the issues for which StreetsPAC advocates and in the scope of the districts they seek to represent, and we urge you to join us in supporting them. Read on below to learn more about each of our endorsees, including important aspects of their visions for street safety and transportation policy. Candidates are listed below by legislative body (Senate first, then Assembly), and in ascending order by district number. For each of our endorsees, we've included links that will take you directly to information about helping with and/or donating to their campaigns.

• Announcing StreetsPAC's Latest Round of 2026 New York State Legislative Endorsements

  Posted by Eric McClure · October 08, 2026 10:30 AM

  We're thrilled today to announce our endorsements of 17 candidates running in November's general election for the New York State Legislature, five for State Senate and a dozen for the Assembly. They join the 21 winning candidates whom we endorsed ahead of June's primary election in forming a slate that includes races across the entirety of New York State, from Suffolk County to Erie County, the first time we've endorsed in races statewide.

  This new group of endorsees includes seven incumbents, five candidates challenging sitting officeholders, and five candidates vying for open seats. Building upon our statewide success in June's primaries – we backed winning candidates in the Hudson Valley, Syracuse, Utica, and Buffalo – nearly two-thirds of our newly endorsed candidates are running for seats on Long Island or in upstate districts.

  We began in earnest to look at races across the state in 2024, and the number of candidate questionnaire responses we received from beyond New York City has more than quadrupled this year. We've expanded the scope of our work for two reasons. First, many of New York City's most important street-safety and transportation measures, including our speed and red-light camera programs and MTA funding, require state legislative approval; and secondly, cities, towns and villages across New York State stand to benefit from complete-streets initiatives, reduced speed limits, and development of multi-use paths, among many other policies.
