I used to like Julissa Ferraras but I have noted lately how close she has become with Christine Quinn so I don't trust Julissa any more.

Julissas office is facin a lot of problems.
First she fired her chief of staff Angel.
Second her deputy chief of Staff Yoselin Henao have been given a subpoena to testify as a witness to a LIBRE INVESTIGATION
Does this subpoena mean that YOSELIN OR JULISSA ARE IN any trouble? What will happen?
THIRD: JULISSA SWEATSHOP IS OPEN FOR BUSINESS IN CORONA. PAY THE SALARY TO THE YOUNGMAN

Angel deserved to be fired. He called me up one day and cursed at me because I invited Julissa to attend a rally.

No joke.

HORRIBLE

Many politicians do this. They take advantage of people that wont say anything. I guess she didn't except this kid to say anything. I'm glad he went to NY1. If anyone out there isn't payed by weekly at least go to the Media. They love to get stuff like this.

Seems to me that City council just opened a new committee : City Council sweatshops

I knew Mrs Julissa Ferreras.Her double personality, and when I found out the disgrace person that she is. As a constituent I going to tke her to Justice. Because she is not honets, he betrayed her mentor,former councilmenber and New York State Senate Hiram Monserrate.
She sell to soul to vel to saty im power.But cooruts the mst bring ti justice.

Did your keyboard suddenly go haywire? What were those last two sentences supposed to say?

My guess:

She sold her soul to the devil to stay in power. But the courts must bring her to justice.

Am I close? Yea? Nay? Hey!

Julissa Ferraras should be ashamed of herself. At least when Monseratte was in office for both his senate and city council tenure, he provided equal opportunity employment.Many disabilities advocates and including Bill DeBlasio should stand up for Mr. Castro and demand answers from Ferraras and not let her cowardly hide behind her staff. We unfortunately elected Ferraras to a full term not her staff members.

REMEBER JULISSA?? AND yOSELIN???
A Queens community group that is under investigation for possible political work could not produce paperwork to show how it spent nearly $250,000 in city money
The group, Libre, which was overseen by JULISSA FERRERAS received hundreds of thousands of dollars in discretionary funds over the past five years to provide English language instruction, job placement assistance and other services to the immigrant and Latino community in the Corona area of Queens.
SOUNDS LIKE JOSE PERALTA NON PROFIT ORGANIZATION 500K FROM SCHUMMER AND CROWLEY FUNDS

But the group was unable to produce time sheets, expense receipts, canceled checks or board meeting minutes to document its expenses for the two fiscal years, 2006 and 2007, examined in the audits. Libre told the auditors in an e-mail message that it had shut down.

Investigators for the Queens district attorney this spring began reviewing allegations that the organization had spent a portion of its time promoting Mr. Monserrate’s political career.

In May, as part of a separate review, private auditors hired by the city’s Department of Youth and Community Development began examining how Libre spent grant money the agency gave it.


Ms. Ferreras, said in a brief telephone interview that the records should be in Libre’s offices. “I personally don’t keep the records,” she said. (YOSELIN HENAO)
YOSELIN WAS THE EXCEUTIVE DIRECTOR OF LIBRE AND NOW IS THE DEPUTY CHIEF OF STAFF OF JULISSA)
WHAT A COINCIDENCE!

First off Angel her former Chief of Staff was hired at the request of Hiram Monserrate. His loyalty was to Hiram and not Julissa. Second Steven is the relative of Mr. Castro who also works for MonsterRat. Smells like she was set up. As far as the Libre issue, Yes they should investigate. Julissa was Chair of the Board in name, but those of you who really know Hiram, know that he knew where every penny went, so if money is missing check his pickets. It is sad when you as a former elected official as Hiram is, resorts to slanderous information to the press for personal gain. Deperation shown by Monserrate will be his down fall. People like Monserrate who say they are for the people and with the people need to understand that "the people" are not as stupid as you think. Next week March 16, please vote, but vote for a change for our community, vote NO to MonsteRat, vote for the future of our communty. Those of you who have posted your feelings should have the balls to post who you are, rather than Anomymous, because we know who you are. If you need to reach out to me.
