Today, on September 11, 2001, we reflect on a day that changed our nation. We honor the lives lost, the heroes who emerged, and the strength of unity. The heroes and their legacy will always be remembered. Today and always, we remember. 🇺🇸 #NeverForget #September11
I’ve been a State Senator for a few years and just when I think nothing could shock me anymore, along comes another BAD idea. This doozy belongs to Governor Hochul and NYC Mayor Eric Adams, who in a moment of great virtue signaling decided that our state and NYC should be “sanctuary” destinations for migrants. Now they’re overwhelmed by the more than 100,000 migrants who arrived on our doorstep demanding help. Really? Was that a surprise? She declared a “state of emergency,” marshaled over $2 billion in taxpayer funds for the effort, and even mobilized the National Guard. Despite all this, despite reports from our overwhelmed neighborhoods, despite thousands of hard-working New Yorkers raising their voices in protest, THEY DO NOTHING. They refuse the obvious solution: reverse our sanctuary status and tell President Biden to secure our border. So my fellow lawmakers and I sent Hochul a letter, demanding – pleading – hoping – for common sense. Hang on tight. It’s gonna get bumpy because we’re fighting this every step of the way.
