"New Progressivism" with the Founder of the Unity Party, Marty Dolan

On The Mark with Howard Mark Rubin, Episode 36

In this episode of On The Mark, Howard Mark Rubin speaks with Marty Dolan, a candidate challenging Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (AOC) in New York's 14th Congressional District in the Democratic June 23 primary.

Tune in to the episode to hear about:

* Dolan’s argument that AOC represents far-left, antagonistic politics that struggle to succeed in legislatures built around centrist coalitions

* Disorder on Roosevelt Avenue and the bipartisan “Restore Roosevelt Avenue” group that pushed Gov. Kathy Hochul to send state troopers

* Dolan’s take on gerrymandering as “profoundly un-American,” saying primary outcomes are driven heavily by money and turnout operations

* Social media’s minimal impact in parts of the South Bronx, but how it helps sharpen campaign messaging

* “Marty Money” policies: Dolan’s housing platform centered on privatizing NYCHA by selling apartments to current tenants at reduced prices to encourage equity ownership

* Reparations for slavery, citing commissions at both the federal and New York State levels and framing it as a damages-based approach

* Dolan’s professional background in investment banking and insurance, working on major issues including environmental liability, Lloyd’s of London, post-9/11 insurance market challenges, and the global financial crisis

* Dolan’s proposal to expand charter and religious schools, including the direct election of the school chancellor by parents
