MONROE COUNTY LEGISLATOR STEVE ECKEL IS THE RIGHT CHOICE

Rochester, N.Y.--  Steve Eckel represents the 26th District, which includes parts of Gates, Greece, Irondequoit, and the City of Rochester. Steve was first appointed to the Monroe County Legislature in March of 2005 and then elected to a two-year term in November 2005 and re-elected for a four-year term in November 2007. He currently serves as the Ranking Minority Member of the Agenda Charter Committee, as well as a member of the Public Safety Committee.

CSEA highly recommends Mr. Eckel for  his re-election bid.  Cris Zaffuto, CSEA Monroe County Local 828 PAC Co-Chair says, "Steve has always been there for us-- he is a good listener and is willing to challenge the status quo to improve the lives of working families here in Monroe County.  The legislature would be more functional if other legislators took cues from Steve's professionalism."

Steve is committed to building vibrant neighborhoods and working with the people of the four towns he represents. He works to strengthen citizens' pride in their communities and become more active in the governance of their towns.

Professionally, Steve is an Adjunct Professor of Photography at Genesee Community College. His photographic work has been shown internationally and published in several books and national journals.
