“I applaud Governor Cuomo for speaking directly to the hardworking families of New York to lay out a plan to move us forward. At the start of a busy year in Albany, I am encouraged to hear the Governor focus on tax cuts and job growth. I know we will build on the good works we have been able to accomplish in the last three years and do more for our families. This year, I am also focused on ensuring our children receive the educational tools necessary to succeed, including a commitment to universal pre-kindergarten and creating more options for high school students. I have rolled up my sleeves and am ready to work with my colleagues, the Governor and the families of my district to ensure we are creating a better New York.”
