“As we embark on a new legislative session, the challenges – and opportunities – are clear. The focus must be on making New York stronger and helping families get ahead by increasing opportunities and fairness. Last year, the Assembly Majority was able to accomplish much of our Families First agenda. Now, we must build on that success and deliver more for the people we represent. By robustly investing in education to help our children succeed/making New York’s tax code fairer to help working families we can move our state forward. Those are just some of my top priorities for 2016, and I will be working tirelessly on your behalf to ensure they are accomplished.”
