Assemblyman Phil Goldfeder�
�announced on June 2 that he would not seek re-election this November to the 23rd Assembly District seat, which represents Ozone Park, Howard Beach, Broad Channel and much of the Rockaways.
�My last five years as your assemblyman� have been the greatest and most rewarding of my entire life,� Goldfeder said in a newsletter sent to his constituents on June 3. �This was a difficult decision, but I am looking forward to the next chapter in my career and hopefully spending more time at home with my new son and entire family.�
Goldfeder�s term expires at the end of the year, and he intends �to use this time to continue my work and fight for the issues that matter most,� he told constituents in the June 3 newsletter.
Voters will decide later this year who will replace Goldfeder as the 23rd Assembly District representative. Primaries for the seat will be held in September in advance of the November 8 general election. There was no word as of yet regarding possible contenders.
A source told YWN that Jake Adler is considering a run for the seat.
