With her sixteen years of experience prosecuting corrupt politicians, Mimi has seen how Trump and his administration have hurt our families and undermined our justice system. She knows that fighting back against Trump can start right here in Westchester, by building a transparent, ethical, and fair justice system for all, and she's fighting to make it happen.
