Senate GOP argues Dem proposal to make a crime of making a threat of mass violence doesn’t go far enough, more work needed. Bill sponsor Sen. Todd Kaminsky said he’s sought the bill for years: “I’ll be damned if I’ll do nothing. It took two tragedies to make this happen.”

Today I took the opportunity to thank some of our legislators who are retiring from the legislature — some after decades of public service.
Thank you for all you've done for the Empire State!
A special shout out to the incomparable @meyerslbny who has given her heart & soul to the task of advocating for the residents of the South Shore. Halie will be heading to the private sector soon, & she should know how much we appreciate her.
As we count down my final days in Albany, it was very special to have my family here to see what it’s all about.

School shootings are not fucking acts of nature, like hurricanes and tornadoes. They're man-made acts of inaction, of cowardice, of corruption by all lawmakers who refuse to pass laws PROVEN BY DATA to stop preventable, senseless shootings like in Uvalde.

Hey Long Island…let’s make sure we never forget to notice when neo-facist hate groups take to our streets in broad daylight. Yesterday, the Proud Boys came to @VillageRVC again. This can’t be the new normal and this isn’t who we are.

To the many who have sent prayers to my staff member Zeneta & her son Zaire following yesterday’s shooting in Buffalo - thank you. Those prayers have been answered. He is now home resting, & beginning the healing process. Please continue to pray for the families of those lost.

Tonight, a member of my staff, my extended family, is at ECMC when she should be at home. She’s sitting in a hospital waiting room, because her beautiful, extraordinary son was shot while he was simply doing his job.
My full statement on today’s shooting in Buffalo is below:
Praying for the people of Buffalo. But when will we wake up and realize that it’s not ok to have a country where even a grocery store isn’t safe….and that allowing people to have high-powered rifles will consistently lead to unspeakable tragedy.
Ten people were killed by a gunman dressed in body armor and armed with a high powered rifle, while three others were wounded outside and inside a Tops supermarket on Jefferson Avenue. buffalonews.com/news/local/t…

Remembering the life of 10-year-old Lazar LaPenna. We send our love and support to his family and teammates in the Long Beach/Lido Little League. #BatsOutForLazar 🧡💙
This budget is a victory for families & students in NY. We added 15K PreK seats, 4,300 of which are on LI, for the upcoming school year.
Working parents shouldn't have to pick btwn taking care of their kids or missing work. When we invest in education, we invest in our future
This was Anti-Semitism, full-stop. The trope of “Jews taking over” has been a hallmark of white supremacy for ages. RVC has a history of tolerance that welcomes all. Stand up for what’s right and call this out loudly 🚨🚨🚨No place for hate.
