Central Queens Republican Club – Debate with JFK Democrat Club

Board members of both Central Queens Republican Club and JFK Democrat Club of Queens approved a joint meeting to cover NATIONAL policy agreements and disagreements.  Due to an overwhelming amount of topics to cover, CITY and STATE issues will not be given time that evening.  The objective is to have an open and honest debate without name calling, shouting matches and fist fighting.   Some of topics to be covered are inflation, immigration, election, Trump vs. Harris.  Check back for more details.
