Bio:
Anne Donnelly is a career prosecutor with over 30 years of experience, running for re-election as Nassau County district attorney to keep Nassau the safest community in America.
She first ran for DA to defeat the architect of New York’s cashless bail law and won because Nassau residents demanded a prosecutor who prioritizes public safety over soft-on-crime politics. Under her leadership, Nassau has become the safest county in America, thanks to her relentless focus on holding criminals accountable, closing cold cases, prosecuting gang members and violent offenders, and supporting law enforcement with the resources they need to protect families.
Donnelly continues to fight against pro-criminal laws from Albany, including cashless bail, the Clean Slate law, and legislation that would restrict police traffic stops, ensuring that Nassau remains safe for families, schools, and neighborhoods.
