Avella also served as a member of the New York City Council from 2002 to 2009, representing some of the same Queens neighborhoods in District 19.

He was also a losing candidate in the 2009 New York City mayoral election, the 2013 Queens Borough President election, and the 2017 New York City mayoral election. On September 13, 2018, Avella was defeated in the State Senate Democratic primary by former New York City Comptroller John Liu.
