Abrams Fensterman, LLP is proud to share that its recent New York Voting Rights Act victory in Serratto v. Town of Mount Pleasant has been featured in The New York Times.
The article, titled “Latinos Reshaped Sleepy Hollow. Now They May Reshape the Town Board,” highlights the landmark settlement requiring Mount Pleasant to adopt district-based elections and expand its Town Board.
“After years without having any say in their government, the Hispanic population of Mount Pleasant will finally have their seat at the table.”
