Hempstead, Long Island September 25, 2004 — Max Rodriguez seeks election to 18th Assembly District. Mr. Rodriguez is a native of Cuba who came to the United States with his family at the age of 12. After a short time living in Miami, Florida the family moved to Nassau County in 1961. He now lives in the Village of Hempstead with his lovely wife Gladys and their three daughters; Vicky, Jennifer, and Monica. Max is also the proud grandfather of Nicholas.

Max earned a Bachelor in Science degree in Business Management and Communications from Adelphi University in Garden City.

He is also a graduate of South Side High School in Rockville Centre.

Currently he serves as Special Assistant to the Hempstead Town Clerk, appointed by the Town of Hempstead’s First Hispanic Town Clerk Mark A. Bonilla. In addition, Max has held other positions in government, Assistant Director of Nassau County Office of Minority Affairs and Hempstead Village Trustee. He is also a licensed real estate sales agent associated with Garden City Properties.

In 1994, Max made history by becoming the First Hispanic Village Trustee on Long Island.

After his appointment, he was elected to a full term until 1999. Mr. Rodriguez has taken on many leadership positions to assist the community. He is a member of several respected organizations including the Hempstead Village branch of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People (NAACP) – Silver Life Member, the Interfaith Nutrition Network (INN), the Cuban American National Foundation, East Meadow Kiwanis Club, La Hermandad del Senor de los Milagros (The Brotherhood of Our Lord of Miracles), and the Republican National Hispanic Assembly.

He also serves as an officer in the Hempstead Village Republican Club (currently President), Hempstead Health Clinic Board (Board Member), Cuban Civic Club (Board Member), Republican National Hispanic Assembly (Northeast Regional Representative), the Molloy College President’s Advisory Scholarship Committee on Multicultural

Concerns (Board Member), Long Island Hispanic Chamber of Commerce (Board Member), Adelphi University Alumni Scholarship Committee, and Hofstra for Hempstead-Hempstead for Hofstra President’s Scholarship Committee.

Vote for Max Rodriguez to become the next State Assemblyman for the 18th District. Despite her efforts, our current state assemblywoman has not successfully represented the District 18 in Albany. Her track record fails to display significant gains and can be described as one of the worst records of any member of the State Assembly.

This is why I am running. We need change and we need it TODAY! My proven leadership as a Hempstead Village Trustee, Assistant Director of

Nassau County Minority Affairs, and currently as Special Assistant to Hempstead Town Clerk Mark Bonilla allows me to know how government works, what the community wants, and how to best utilize this information to better serve and represent the constituents of the 18th Assembly District.
