GREAT NECK, N.Y. – Today, inside the bustling Tour le Jours bakery in Great Neck, Congresswoman Grace Meng proudly announced her endorsement of Weihua Yan for Nassau County Legislature. This monumental endorsement was made alongside other esteemed Democratic elected officials and candidates from Nassau County, highlighting the collective support for Yan’s candidacy.

Congresswoman Meng, a highly respected leader in the Asian-American community and a staunch advocate for diverse representation, expressed her strong endorsement of Yan’s campaign, and pledged to support his efforts to flip the 10th Legislative District.

Yan, known for his successful business ventures including the co-founding of Diapers.com, expressed his deep gratitude for Congresswoman Meng’s endorsement and shared his vision for the district. “I am humbled and honored to receive Congresswoman Grace Meng’s endorsement. Today, we stand united to create historic representation and work towards a more inclusive future.

Nassau County is home to a vibrant and diverse population, and the 10th Legislative District encompasses all of the Great Neck peninsula, Lake Success, Hericks, and parts of Manhasset. With its sizable Asian-American community, this district could be swayed by the prospect of a representative who understands their unique needs.

The support of other Democratic elected officials from Nassau County underscores the growing momentum behind Yan’s campaign and the belief in his ability to serve the district with integrity and dedication.
