He is a Democrat. BiographyRivera was born in 1936 in San Juan, Puerto Rico. He was a member of the New York State Assembly from 1983 to 1987, sitting in the 185th, 186th and 187th New York State Legislatures. He was a member of the New York City Council from 1987 to 2000. Rivera was elected again to the State Assembly in 2000, and was the head of the Democratic Party in the Bronx until he was ousted in 2008 by the so-called Rainbow Rebels. Prior to his election to the Assembly in 1982, Rivera gained prominence as a labor advocate and organizer of construction workers and "gypsy" taxicab drivers.[1] During his tenure as County Leader of the Bronx, Rivera was frequently advised by Mike Nieves, a Democratic party consultant and strategist.[2] Rivera was a vocal advocate for the withdrawal of the U.S. Navy from its bombing range on the island of Vieques, Puerto Rico, and was arrested in 2001, together with Al Sharpton and other political figures, for trespassing onto the Navy's Vieques facility. The Navy subsequently agreed to withdraw from the Vieques facility. Two of his children, Joel Rivera and Naomi Rivera, were formerly elected officials in the Bronx, and were members of the New York City Council and New York State Assembly, respectively. In March 2014, Rivera achieved a local prominence in the Dominican Republic. He videotaped himself buying a local aphrodisiac named mamajuana, and declared that it would enhance his sexual performance.[3] References1. ^{{cite book|author1=Lien, Marianne Elisabeth (ed.)|author2=Melhuus, Marit (ed.)|author3=Krohn-Hansen, Christian (ch. 5)|title=Holding Worlds Together: Ethnographies of Knowing and Belonging|year=2007|publisher=Berghahn Books|isbn=978-1-84545-250-6|url=https://books.google.com/books?id=nQ5siadToD4C&pg=PA86&dq=Jose+Rivera+cab+gypsy#v=onepage|accessdate=October 25, 2010|page=86|chapter=Chapter 5: The Understanding of Migration and the Discourse of Nationalism: Dominicans in New York City|quote='...Then the Puerto Ricans, who are the pioneers in this struggle, began to offer services with the so-called gypsy cabs, cars that weren't regulated by the city...We had a Puerto Rican who was born in this industry, José Rivera...'}} 2. ^[https://www.nytimes.com/2006/12/16/nyregion/16rivera.html?pagewanted=all New York Times, 12-16-2006] Retrieved 06-26-2013. 3. ^Ben Endley, "Embarrassing Footage Emerges, U.K. Daily Guardian, March 2014.
