Ask this candidate a question
Have a question you’d want Myron Lizer to answer — about housing, health care, your chapter, anything? Submit it here. We work to put community questions in front of candidates through follow-up interviews and campaign contacts. How an answer gets published: an answer appears on this profile only when we can confirm it came from the candidate through their own public channel — a broadcast interview, a campaign statement, or an official account — never through contact details supplied in a submission. Answers publish verbatim, in full. Non-response is never noted, because silence is not evidence. Your question is read by a volunteer, published only as part of a question put to a candidate, and never with anything identifying you.
