Today the Assembly welcomed guest Rosario Dawson, here in Albany to advocate for my colleague Assemblymember Dr. Anna R. Kelles' Fashion Act, a bill I co-sponsor and which aims to reduce the environmental and social impacts of the fashion industry. (My kids will be excited to see I met Ahsoka!)
Proud to co-sponsor this resolution, celebrating the educators 'who fill many roles such as listeners, explorers, role models, motivators and mentors; and who continue to influence their students long after the school days are only memories.' Happy #TeacherAppreciationDay , all.
The Town of Tonawanda Youth, Parks & Recreation team told me recently that they'd nominated me for New York State Recreation & Park Society's Elected Official of the Year Award - and that I'd won! I was speechless. I'm always sharing my passion for parks and rec, which I consider the lifeblood of any community. This honor means a lot.
Let's applaud artist Matt Duquette on his new addition to the Town Aquatic & Fitness Center! As with our exterior mural, I secured the funds to commission the project, and it came together with the invaluable support of Arts Services Inc. (ASI), @tonawandaYPR and the Town Board. Great work, Matt.
Thank you, Kenmore Fire, for inviting me to last night's officer installation. And thank you, members, for your service. You sacrifice time with family, tending to others' loved ones in their times of greatest need. You are remarkable.
It's always a pleasure meeting with GiGi's Playhouse Inc Buffalo Executive Director Emily Mondschein, who visited my office today to discuss how I as a lawmaker can best support individuals with Down syndrome. She is just a tireless advocate for the families she serves.
