It is Alicia’s passion to represent common sense New Yorkers in the New York State Assembly, to make sure their voices are heard at the legislative level and to rebuild a path for the PEACE, PROSPERITY and POTENTIAL of every New Yorker.

Alicia Purdy holds a B.A. in Broadcasting and an M.A. in Journalism. Her first “real” job out of graduate school was at Cuyler News Service in the press corp of the New York State Assembly.
In 2023, Alicia published her first novel, “THEY” – a transformational fiction story that is as disturbing as it is inspiring about a world in which there is no war – and no peace, where differences are eliminated and sameness is strength. Is it better to live with a lie, or die for the truth?
