“We need leaders not in love with money but in love with justice. Not in love with publicity but in love with humanity.”

-Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr.

Fed Up? Fight Back!

Vance Bostic isn't a politician. He's a fighter from Brooklyn.

Born and raised in NYCHA's projects and orphaned by 21, Vance has lived the struggles of working-class New York. He’s been a carnie, a waiter, a line cook, and a food-truck hustler - surviving on tips while building a life as a photographer and musician.

After years of being exploited, he earned his MBA and saw firsthand how the system is rigged against us. Now, he’s running for Congress to break that system and rebuild it for all of us.

Vance has lived every fight we’re in:

  • He survived NYCHA neglect and wage theft.

  • He went from high school dropout to MBA, learning the system only to dismantle it.

  • He rejects all corporate PAC money, owing nothing to any lobbyist or billionaire.

Vance Bostic is New York’s repressed workforce, personified. He’s the real deal, and he’s ready to bring Brooklyn’s grit, artistry, and unyielding fight to Congress. We’ve lived our entire lives in the system they created, and we are done waiting for change.

Change isn't coming. It's HERE!

An Uprising Against the Machine.

After a lifetime in the service industry, feeling every crack of our broken system, and the brutal reality of politicians who serve their donors, not us. Vance is running for Congress because it’s time for a fighter who works with you and is ready to change the system.

We’ve watched the political establishment fail us. Watching them bend the knee to Trump, take millions from AIPAC and corporate lobbyists while our neighbors struggle and suffer was the final straw. Our communities demand justice. Vance is stepping up not as a politician, but as a worker ready to rewrite the rules.

This isn’t a campaign. This isn't politics as usual. None of this is normal. It’s time to rewrite the rules.

We are building a movement with NO corporate cash, ever to fight for:

  • Abolishing Poverty Wages and subminimum wages, fight for a $30/hr + tips for service workers.

  • Providing Housing as a Human Right and Seize Housing from negligent slumlords; enact rent control and support Mayor Mamdani in NYC.

  • Put People Over Profit and Cut all U.S. funding to Israel’s genocide, tax billionaires to fund healthcare, housing, and education.

  • Defend the Marginalized and protect immigrants, workers, and all those under attack by this treasonous regime.

Vance is a fed-up worker ready to fight for the many over the few. His loyalty is to Humanity, not to lobbyists. It’s time for real representation from someone who has lived your struggles.

Change is HERE!

Core Principles

A LIVABLE WAGE FOR ALL

For twenty years, Vance survived on tips and empty promises from bosses who told him his smile would pay the bills. He has worked triple shifts and still struggled to afford the city we call home. So many of our family and friends have been forced to move because they can't afford this city.

Too many of our Politicians don’t know that choice. They are funded by the same entities that designed this poverty we live under. Funded by the same corporations that lobby our Representatives to keep our wages low.

We are the collected frustration of the workforce who are told we aren’t worth a living income. Our fight for a $30/hour minimum wage isn’t just policy. It’s a personal promise, it’s a vow: in the richest nation on Earth, NO ONE who works full-time should live in poverty. We shouldn't just survive, we should THRIVE.

ARTISTS & GIG WORKERS BILL OF RIGHTS

In the richest city in the world, no one should have to choose between their passion and their survival. Yet artists and gig workers are systematically locked out of the basic protections like healthcare, stable pay, and the retirement that every worker deserves.

As someone who has been paid in 'exposure' and worked at the mercy of an algorithm, Vance knows this isn't a choice; it's exploitation. That ends NOW. We are launching a fight for an Artist & Gig Worker Bill of Rights. This is about more than a paycheck; it's about our power. It's about saying that health insurance shouldn't chain us to a toxic job. That no delivery driver should fear a hospital bill more than a car accident.

They call us the 'creative class' and the 'gig economy.' We are the heart of the nation. And it's time our laws recognized our value with dignity, stability, and respect.

HOUSING IS A HUMAN RIGHT

NO ONE should have to choose between paying rent and putting food on the table. Yet for decades, politicians have treated housing like a stock market, letting corporate landlords and Wall Street speculators evict, displace, and exploit our communities for profit.

Housing is not a commodity for Wall Street to speculate on - it is a fundamental human right. No one should spend over 30% of their income on rent or live in fear of eviction and displacement. We must house Humanity with dignity, not criminalize poverty.

We don’t need more empty promises. We need a Congressmember who’s lived in the cracks of a broken system and is ready to rebuild it from the ground up. We are fighting for federal rent control to keep people in their homes, a full federal takeover to repair NYCHA's mold and leaks, and a humane plan to house the homeless. All funded by taxing the luxury developers and corporate landlords who have profited from our suffering. Our homes are not for sale, and our people are not for rent.
