Elliot Engel was a tireless advocate for his constituents, an indispensable ally for me on domestic and international issues, a true friend and a fine man. I am grateful for his life of service and will miss him very much.

Today I visited the New York Aquarium and learned a lot about their conservation efforts, including preserving the Hudson Canyon, home to hundreds of species, by designating it as a Sanctuary. They need our support to protect sea life and resources! @thewcs @nyaquarium

Endangered sei whales take spring break in the waters off New York and New Jersey, a new study led by the WCS New York Bight Program shows. Sei whales are the world’s 3rd largest whales. Also, one of the least studied large whales in the North Atlantic. bit.ly/3O0CgOb

The Trump Administration's reckless tariff policies are already raising costs for consumers and businesses across the country and in our community. This morning, I stopped by Vinnie's Italian Importing to highlight the effects of the disastrous tariffs on Italian pasta.
