Kindness in community
Neighbors who know each other’s names, look out for one another, and show up when someone needs a hand. Brooklyn is strongest when we take care of each other.
Brooklyn, New York · Republican
Abe Marko
Running for Kindness
Office & district to be announced
A proud Republican and a proud lover of Israel, Abe is running on one simple idea: a kinder community is a stronger community.
Why Kindness
Kindness isn’t weakness. It’s how strong communities are built.
Politics today is loud and angry. Abe believes in a different way: respect, listening, and helping each other — even when we disagree. Here’s where kindness matters most.
Kindness in the family
Strong families are the foundation of strong neighborhoods. Patience, respect and time together — at home and around the family table.
Kindness for mental health
Nobody should struggle alone or in silence. Abe believes in talking openly about mental health, without stigma, and in reaching out to those who are hurting.
Kindness to small business
Small businesses are the heart of every block. They deserve respect, encouragement and neighbors who shop local and cheer them on.
Kindness rooted in faith
Faith teaches us to treat every person with dignity. Abe’s values come from that tradition: gratitude, charity and kindness to everyone.
Standing with Israel
A proud friend of Israel and the Jewish people
Abe is a lifelong lover of Israel. He believes the friendship between the United States and Israel — two democracies that share faith, freedom and family values — is something to be proud of and to protect.
He stands against antisemitism and hatred of every kind, here in Brooklyn and everywhere. Standing with Israel and being kind to all our neighbors go hand in hand.
עם ישראל חי
“Am Yisrael Chai” — the people of Israel live.
