A cleaner environment and access to our waterfronts are essential for environmental justice communities like the ones I represent.
Today, I was happy to offer remarks at the Long Island Sound Day breakfast hosted by @cfe.SavetheSound . We must do all that we can reduce pollution and improve sustainability in the waterways that flow aside our communities.
The markets at Hunts Point serve as the world’s largest food distribution center. Their operations are essential to ensuring food access locally, across the Northeast, and beyond.

I was honored to give opening remarks at The Museum Association of New York - MANY (@NYSMuseums ) 2026 Annual Conference.
Museums are not only major economic generators for NYS, they’re places of learning, reflection, and exploration for all communities. It is vitally important that we support our museums so they can continue to do all the amazing things they do for NY!

Today I was happy to meet with Housing Justice for All coalition members who traveled to Albany to advocate for increased funding for the Housing Access Voucher Program.

Our hardworking and dedicated teachers are committed to the success of students in our community and across New York State.

The 29th Senate District is filled with many unique and wonderful neighborhoods, and we feel it’s important to have our constituent services team in the community, reaching our constituents closer to where they live.
