Dear Friends and Neighbors,
We are reproductive rights champions in New York State. In response to the abortion bans happening in Texas and across the country, I joined Governor Hochul this week to support an agenda to affirm our state's commitment to reproductive healthcare choices.

Saying "Bans Off Our Bodies" |
|
In response to anti-abortion laws in Texas and across the country, Assembly Member Rebecca Seawright joined Governor Kathy Hochul this week for an announcement of an agenda to affirm abortion rights and cement New York's status as a place to welcome women seeking abortion care.
As part of these efforts, the Governor is directing State agencies to coordinate a statewide public information campaign, including the development of a patient bill of rights, in coordination with stakeholders. This campaign will help women know their rights and legal protections and ensure this information is accessible and widely available. |

The Twentieth Remembrance At The 9/11 Sunrise Ceremony In Carl Schurz Park |
|
Neighbors met at the John Finley Walk at Carl Schurz Park for a ceremony to commemorate the twentieth anniversary of September 11, 2001.
"In the deadliest terrorist attack in American history, we saw the worst of humanity. Yet, in this darkest hour, we witnessed the best of humanity: the courage and bravery of the firefighters, police, first responders and ordinary citizens. We will never forget," said Assembly Member Rebecca Seawright. |
