🇲🇽🇲🇽HAPPY CINCO DE MAYO!! 🇲🇽🇲🇽

Today I had a fantastic time celebrating Cinco de Mayo at Peekskill’s annual festival today. Grateful to join such a vibrant community event, made possible by longtime local business owner Ruben Alvarez of Ruben’s Mexican Café. Great food, great people, and a great day all around!

Hoy me lo pasé muy bien celebrando el Cinco de Mayo en el festival anual de Peekskill. Agradecido de unirme a un evento comunitario tan vibrante, hecho posible gracias al antiguo propietario de un negocio local desde hace mucho tiempo, Rubén Álvarez, del Café Mexicano de Rubén. ¡Buena comida, gente estupenda y un gran día en todos los sentidos!

I’m honored to receive the endorsement of the Civil Service Employees Association (CSEA), representing hardworking public employees across our region.

CSEA’s support means a great deal because it comes from the men and women who keep our communities running every day—often behind the scenes, but always essential.

As their letter notes, this endorsement reflects “my interest in the issues affecting workers and my commitment to addressing the needs of all hard-working men and women in our community.” That’s work I take seriously, and will continue to fight for every day.

From fair wages and safe working conditions to respect for public service, I’m proud to stand with working families across Westchester.

Thank you to CSEA for your trust and support. I look forward to continuing this work together.

I oppose reopening Indian Point because a decommissioning nuclear plant is not a serious answer to New York’s crushing utility bills. Closing the plant had real costs, and we should be honest about that. But the deeper drivers of this affordability crisis are delivery charges, rate-setting, infrastructure costs, and broader energy-planning challenges. New Yorkers deserve real relief grounded in reality — not nostalgia mistaken for policy.

🚨 Thank You, Yorktown Police Department!🚨

This afternoon my wife’s car broke down in the middle of one of the busiest roads in our area, creating a stressful and potentially dangerous situation. Thankfully, Officer Marji from the Yorktown Police Department arrived and helped us handle everything safely and calmly.

Moments like this are a reminder that so much of law enforcement work is about helping everyday people through unexpected, difficult situations — not just chasing “bad guys,” but showing up when someone needs help the most.

Officer Marji was patient, kind, and respectful, and his assistance made a real difference for us during a moment that could have easily turned into a mess. We’re very grateful for the help and for the professionalism he showed.

Thank you to Officer Marji and to the entire Yorktown Police Department for all you do to keep our community safe. We truly appreciate your service. 💙🙏
