New York State and Nassau County Democratic Chairman
Jay Jacobs has led Nassau Dems for a decade and has led the state party since 2009. He has fought to keep jobs and youth on Long Island. But he doesn’t just exert his power in the political realm. Jacobs, who owns and operates seven day camps, is the founder of SCOPE, a program that sends inner city children to not-for-profit camps, as well as Project Heal the Children, which provides free summer camp experiences for children of victims of the Sept. 11, 2001 attacks.
