Sign in to commentCongressman Sires was a good Mayor of West New York, a good Assemblyman, effective Assembly Speaker, and good Congressman who tenaciously fought for, and delivered for his constituents. While he could retire, he is choosing the selfless and more noble path of running for Mayor of his beloved West New York again. WNY was well served with Mr. Sires at the helm of our 100th Anniversary, and will be well served again with him as our Mayor for our 125th Anniversary.
