Our food drive is going strong! We’ll be accepting donations until 2 PM at the Drew United Methodist Church in Carmel. Every donation helps!

Grateful to Kent Town Supervisor candidate Alex Sewell for joining me at yesterday’s food drive—and for his generous donation to help combat food insecurity across Putnam County.

My colleague Matt Slater, Southeast Highway Supt. Michael Burdick and I announced today a $2M repaving project for Rte 312—from the Metro-North crossing to Rte 22 in the Town of Southeast. This smart investment will keep an important roadway safe for travel and commerce.

Clean water is a human right. Slashing federal funding for clean water infrastructure—like the Clean Water State Revolving Fund—puts public health at risk and puts undue burden on local taxpayers. Call your federal reps and let them know we strongly oppose these reckless cuts.

NYSEG wants a 35% rate hike with a 10% ROE—after boosting revenue by $500M!  1.2M NYers are behind on bills, but shareholders want more. The PSC is taking public comments now. Speak out & help stop this outrageous hike. Link to comment: documents.dps.ny.gov/public/Comment…

Proud to stand with Assemblymember Rebecca Kassay this morning as Governor Kathy Hochul signed our bill expanding septic system reimbursements—now up to 75% or $25K. Clean water shouldn’t break the bank. This is a big win for public health, our environment & working families.

With an affordability crisis underway, the MTA’s proposal to raise fares is out of touch.  They said congestion pricing would be enough, then pushed for a payroll tax—and now they want even more. Public transit is vital to communities but it must be AFFORDABLE.

The Trump administration has fostered an atmosphere of fear and intimidation within immigrant communities. Raids by masked men targeting individuals who have never been accused of a crime is not an act of justice or public safety — it is an exercise in thuggery and coercion.

Proud to support the hardworking members of WPCLB AFL-CIO at their annual Labor Family Day in Ridge Road Park—celebrating the people who help keep our communities moving forward every day.

I strongly condemn the vile antisemitic graffiti found in Yorktown. Hate has no place in our community. We must speak out—clearly and immediately—against antisemitism, bigotry, and all forms of hatred.

I stood with community members in Peekskill to denounce the Trump Admin’s attacks on Social Security. For nearly 100 years, it has given hardworking people a safety net after a lifetime of work. Undermining it betrays everyday Americans to reward the ultra-wealthy.

Thank you to Stony Point Democrats (2.0) for inviting me to join you last night. Now more than ever, it’s important that we come together to discuss the challenges facing our community and state, and how we can keep moving forward during these uncertain times.

To quell any speculation about my future plans, I will be running for re-election to the State Senate next year. Simply, the challenges ahead are too great for me to walk away from this important responsibility, and I look forward to a meaningful political discussion next year.

It was great to see the Southeast Dems at the Brewster Fall Festival showing their support for Thomas Sprague in his run for Putnam County Legislator!
