Senator Luis Sepúlveda endorses Letitia James for reelection

New York State Senator Luis R. Sepúlveda has expressed his support for the reelection of Attorney General Letitia James. In an opinion piece, the Bronx legislator highlighted the Attorney General’s work in consumer protection, civil rights defense, and investigations into real estate fraud.

Sepúlveda, an attorney with experience defending low-income families and tenants, noted that many residents in the Bronx and District 32 face economic challenges and housing risks. He specifically cited the Attorney General’s office for its intervention in a suspected real estate fraud scheme that threatened the savings of approximately 150 people.

In April 2024, the Attorney General’s office issued an alert regarding nonexistent properties or properties being marketed to multiple buyers. Sepúlveda noted that this initiative helped warn potential victims and facilitated the channeling of complaints to the appropriate authorities, including those in the Dominican Republic.
