Black mothers are dying at an alarming rate during what should be a joyful time after giving birth. That’s why I have been so proud to work w/ @HealthNYGov to develop & implement the Medicaid doula services benefit rollout for 2024. NY can lead the way in eradicating disparities

Proud to share that my bill, S9602, has been signed into law. This new law extends the licensure/registration period for child care programs from 4 to 6 years, helping reduce burdens & costs for providers, & supporting greater access to affordable, quality child care for families

I was proud to join my partners in government today to highlight meaningful investments for Rochester. I'm grateful to Governor Hochul for her partnership in securing $8M for Daniel’s Law pilots, & expanded doula access across NY.

Today, the Rochester Delegation came together to highlight how this year’s state budget delivers for Monroe County. From investments in healthcare, education, and public safety to lowering costs for working families, we fought to ensure Rochester’s priorities were reflected.

For families in my district, utility bills have become one of the biggest and most unpredictable pressures on household budgets. That’s why we fought for utility reform in this year’s budget and passed my bill, S1012A, banning ratepayer funds from being used for lobbying.

I've heard from hundreds of constituents concerned about the impact data centers could have on electricity rates, water resources, & our environment. That’s why the NYS Senate passed legislation establishing a 1-year pause on new data center construction.

Black birthing people are still five times more likely to die during childbirth and are disproportionately subjected to unnecessary cesarean births. My bill, S7544A, just passed the Senate and will create a cesarean births review board to examine surgical birth rates across NY.

The Rochester delegation worked hard throughout this year’s budget process to fight for the resources our city & region deserve. These investments will help strengthen our neighborhoods, support working families, improve public safety, & build a stronger, more resilient Rochester

While the federal government continues to tear families apart, NYS is working to protect residents and keep ICE accountable. Because every New Yorker deserves fairness, due process, and the opportunity to thrive.

Too many children with complex needs are getting lost in a fragmented system. This op-ed highlights legislation to strengthen the Council on Children and Families, and help ensure children receive timely care and placements.

As the federal administration continues to roll back protections & support for LGBTQ+ communities, I reaffirm my commitment to standing up for LGBTQ+ NYers. This Pride Month, we celebrate resilience, honor progress, & continue the fight for equality, safety, & dignity for all.

We fought hard this year for stronger investments in our schools, and this budget delivers critical funding for students and families across New York.
