10 of the most expensive and commonly prescribed drugs for seniors on Medicare are about to get a MASSIVE price cut, thanks to President Biden & Vice President Kamala Harris. These new negotiated prices will save taxpayers $6 billion — and save Medicare beneficiaries $1.5 billion in out-of-pocket costs.

Two years ago today, President Biden signed the Inflation Reduction Act into law. $6.77 billion has already been invested into New York, creating good-paying jobs, lowering energy costs, and building a cleaner, greener future for us all!

No one who has served our country should face homelessness. I'm proud to have helped secure nearly $44 million in grants to help New York's homeless and at-risk Veterans and their families through Veterans Affairs' Supportive Service for Veteran Families program.

Every worker should have the right to organize for the protection of their health, safety, and dignity in the workplace. I'm proud to join the NYS Conference of Teamsters to push for the #PROAct, which would guarantee the right to collectively organize for every worker.

Today, we celebrate Women's Equality Day, marking 104 years since the 19th Amendment secured women's suffrage. There's no better way to honor the women who fought for the vote than certifying the Equal Rights Amendment and guaranteeing constitutional equality for all Americans.

I had a fantastic time at the New York State Fair in Syracuse today! Make sure you stop by the Taste of New York and Maple Day. The maple ice cream is a family favorite — there's a reason our pup is named Maple!🍦

Our firefighters deserve high-quality equipment and protective gear. I'm in Depew today to announce federal funding I helped secure to purchase state-of-the art equipment to keep the Depew Fire Department's gear free of toxic chemicals.

I had a wonderful time visiting the Pan-African Village at the New York State Fair yesterday! It was great to catch up with Van Robinson, Linda Brown Robinson and members of Syracuse NAACP, and check out the village. Thank you for having us!

I'm working with leaders like Jessica González-Rojas so that ALL children throughout the country receive free & nutritious meals at school, ensuring no student leaves hungry. Let's get it done. Thanks to the amazing staff who made us a taste of the delicious free school meals for NYC students!

New York is a union state!🗽 I was proud to join NYS AFL-CIO // #UnionStrong for their NYS Convention to celebrate organized labor and support the right to collectively organize and to pass the #PROAct.

Elizabeth Coombe is a dedicated public servant and an expert in complex legal matters, which is why I recommended her to serve on the US District Court for the Northern District of New York. I applaud President Biden for nominating her and look forward to voting for her in the Senate.

Resilient energy infrastructure is coming to Jamestown!💡 I'm proud to have helped deliver a $17.4 million federal grant for a community microgrid in Jamestown, which will improve reliability and help keep the lights on. wnynewsnow.com/2024/08/27/17-…

I'm devastated and horrified by the murder of six hostages, including Israeli-American Hersh Goldberg-Polin. My heart is with their families today. Hamas leaders must be held accountable for their crimes. And we will keep working until we bring the remaining hostages home.

Workers are standing up and fighting for better pay, better benefits, and safer workplaces — and New York's unions are leading the way. Happy #LaborDay!

Congratulations to East Moriches' own Lee Fredette for taking home silver in wheelchair rugby at the Paralympic Games in Paris!🗽
