Chaim Deutsch is the Council Member for the 48th District of the New York City Council, an office he first assumed in 2014. He is a Democrat. The district includes Brighton Beach, Gerritsen Beach, Gravesend, Manhattan Beach, Marine Park, Midwood, Plum Beach, and Sheepshead Bay in Brooklyn.

Life and career

Deutsch grew up and lives in Brooklyn. His parents grew up in Romania, and were Holocaust survivors.[2] As a teenager, his father survived three concentration camps before coming to the United States, but never spoke about his experience.[3] Deutsch is an Orthodox Jew.[4]

Growing up, Deutsch lived in a small two-bedroom apartment as one of four boys. In between studying at yeshiva, Deutsch took up a number of jobs to support his family, such as making pizza in a kosher pizza shop.[5] He later worked in real estate management.[1]

Deutsch is a graduate of the NYPD Citizens Police Academy. In 1991, he founded the Flatbush Shomrim Safety Patrol. Following the aftermath of Hurricane Sandy in 2012, Deutsch mobilized volunteers to evacuate residents and assist in the distribution of goods to people affected by the storm. Prior to being elected Councilman in 2013, he served as vice president and police liaison for the Council of Jewish Organizations of Flatbush (COJO),[6] was a constituent liaison for Councilman Lloyd Henry, and worked as Chief of Operations for Councilman Michael Nelson.

He married his wife Sara Deutsch at age 19, and has five children, as well as two grandchildren.[7] He speaks English, Yiddish, and Spanish.[8][1]

New York City Council

Deutsch was elected to the New York City Council on November 5, 2013, defeating Republican David Storobin. He succeeded Democrat Mike Nelson, who was term-limited.[9][10] In 2014 a new Council Subcommittee on Non-public Schools was created, and he was appointed its Chair and only member.[11]

In 2017, Deutsch won re-election, after defeating both an opponent in the Democratic primary and Steve Saperstein (Republican, Conservative, and Reform Parties) in the general election.[12][13][14][15] In January 2018 he was appointed Chair of the City Council’s Veterans Committee.[16] In February 2018 he was unanimously elected Chair of the City Council's 14-member Jewish Caucus.[17] In January 2019, his Holocaust Remembrance Bill passed the City Council, recognizing International Holocaust Remembrance Day in New York City on January 27, and declaring the entire week following as a citywide Holocaust Education Week.[18]

He views himself as a "conservative Democrat."[8] Deutsch's position has a term limit of two four-year terms.[8]
