Welcome to my New York State Assembly Web page
Keeping you informed is one of my top priorities. That's why I'll be regularly updating my website so you can easily access information about the work I do both in Albany and in the Mohawk Valley.
In addition, the website is a great way to keep up with new legislation that impacts our state as well as our community. I encourage you to visit this site often to keep yourself up to date on various issues, news and legislative matters.
Feel free to contact me with questions, issues of concern, legislation you support or oppose, or ideas to help make our community stronger. I am always open to hearing new ideas and I look forward to working with you as we continue to move the Mohawk Valley forward.

- “It’s a sin that we haven’t removed and replaced all the lead service lines providing New Yorkers with drinking water at their homes,” said Buttenschon. “The federal government provided $500 million for the state to replace lead water lines to residences, but that is not enough to correct the contamination problem. Clean and safe drinking water should be a basic right for all New Yorkers. When parents turn on the faucet, they should not worry about whether the water coming out will hurt their children.”
