Next Saturday, July 27th, Assemblymember Karen McMahon and I are hosting our free, annual Family Health Fair at the Amherst Senior Center. Come on out and join us for health screenings, free vaccinations (with your insurance card), a bike helmet giveaway from GObike Buffalo and more!

Today marks 34 years since the Americans with Disabilities Act was signed into law. As a member of the Assembly Committee on People with Disabilities, I will always fight for fair representation and accessibility for all.

I stopped by the Disability Pride Festival this afternoon at Canalside in Buffalo. As we celebrate the 34th anniversary of the Americans with Disabilities Act, this was a great opportunity to learn about the abundant resources and services in our community.

Thanks to everyone who attended our Family Health Fair in Amherst this morning! Assemblymember Karen McMahon and I love hosting this great event. Shout out to the Senior Center for hosting, as well as our sponsor Kaleida Health and all our vendors who participated.

On National Purple Heart Day we honor and remember the men and women of the U.S. Armed Forces who were wounded or killed on the battlefield. We thank them for their service, and are indebted to them for their sacrifice.

Lastly, yesterday included a stop in Buffalo with Assemblymember Karen McMahon where we announced $1.5 million for Buffalo Niagara Heritage Village and discussed future community needs in Amherst with North Amherst Fire Company.

Thank you to everyone who donated during our School Clothing & Supply Drive in partnership with the Town of Amherst! With your help and generosity, students in our community will start the year on the right foot! 📚✏️

🏫🚸School is right around the corner! Remember, when you see those red lights flashing, that's your cue to stop at least 20 feet from the bus. Whether a divided highway or a country road, a stopped school bus means you wait. No exceptions.

Let’s be clear, on Women’s Equality Day, and everyday, we will stand up for the rights of women and girls to express themselves as they wish, vote as they wish, and make decisions for their health and well-being as they wish. No questions asked.

Happy #NationalDogDay from my rescue pups Oscar and Beane! 🐾
