Assemblywoman Jean-Pierre applauds the Governor’s Opportunity Agenda

“Today, Governor Cuomo presented his vision for the future of New York State. I’m glad that he recognizes the need to give hardworking New Yorkers a fair chance at providing for their families. That’s why I will stand alongside the Governor in his push to raise the minimum wage, because families deserve to be paid fair and livable wages, as well as his plan for much needed property tax relief. I look forward to working with the Governor and my colleagues in the legislature to ensure Suffolk County schools receive their fair share of state aid to provide our children with a top-notch education and a bright future. As we turn our focus toward crafting the final budget I am committed to being the strong voice of Babylon’s families, schools and businesses.”
