Why the Daily News Matters

Gun control. Minimum wage. Immigration. Whether pro or con, we can all agree that this issue is greatly influencing the national agenda. However, it’s often difficult to discern the specific points of debate, the political, social and economic context, as well as the implications for the country and its citizens.

The Daily News invites you to join us for lunch and an exclusive presentation on the tough topics currently affecting both the city and the nation. From the increased minimum wage to the Black Lives Matter movement, the affordable housing challenge to the newly-invigorated gangs of New York—yes they exist and are probably in your neighborhood—the Daily News will provide insight, analysis and information on these complicated and divisive issues.

As New York’s hometown newspaper, the Daily News has been on the front lines of quality-of-life issues since 1919, advocating and affecting change, demanding accountability and investigating injustices. This legacy makes us uniquely qualified to explain the tough topics that are relevant to us all.

I hope you will join us for this substantive and spirited debate.
