As the most reliable and balanced news aggregation service on the internet, DML News App offers the following information published by DAILYCALLER.COM:
Democratic leadership is backing up the chair of the Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee after he received criticism for running in a freshman black colleague’s congressional district, Politico reported.
New York Rep. Sean Patrick Maloney announced he would run for the state’s 17th Congressional District’s seat, currently held by freshman left-wing Democratic Rep. Mondaire Jones, after the state’s newly proposed congressional map changed the lines of his own district.
The article goes on to state the following:
Democratic House Speaker Nancy Pelosi voiced her support for Maloney amid frustration over the decision, Politico reported. At least a dozen Democratic members of the House have considered attempting to depose Maloney from his role as chair, multiple people familiar with the matter told the outlet.
“We have a great chairman of the DCCC. And we’re very proud of Sean Patrick Maloney,” Pelosi told reporters.
“He said I’m running where my house is, that’s all I know that he said. And that’s a logical thing for people to do — where my home is,” Pelosi also said.
Pelosi OK with Maloney’s move, saying: “He said I’m running where my house is, that’s all I know that he said. And that’s a logical thing for people to do — where my home is,” she said, per @DaniellaMicaela. “But we’re still hopeful there could still be some change in” the maps https://t.co/BGRQwmHiYm

There’s a simple solution here.
Maloney should run in NY-18, which he mostly represents.
Jones in NY-17, which he mostly represents
Bowman in NY-16, which he mostly represents.Problem solved.
