Rep. George Latimer

We had three tremendous DC interns this Summer: Jacob, Marion and Aine. If you’ve called or visited my DC office, you likely spoke with one of them. We wish them the best as they head back to school.

I recently signed on as a cosponsor to the Long Island Sound Restoration and Stewardship Act, which reauthorizes grants made possible by the Clean Water Act to continue conservation and restoration of Long Island Sound. I am committed to protecting and preserving our precious…

Today I was joined by local elected officials in pushing Amtrak for answers after a third delay to the Metro North Penn Station Access Project was announced this week. The project will extend Metro North access to Penn Station, shortening commutes and opening up new job…

My constituent services team made stops in Eastchester and Mount Vernon this week and were able to help constituents with issues related to Social Security, the IRS and the Dept. of the Treasury. They will be at the Scarsdale Library from 1-5pm today, with more stops to be…

TOMORROW! My constituent services team will be in Scarsdale for mobile office hours. Stop by for individual assistance with issues related to federal agencies like the IRS, Social Security and Dept. of Education.

While we’re all distracted by the circus, CBS settles with Trump, cancels Colbert, and angles for a merger needing Trump administration approval. Meanwhile... CBS great news leader Edward R. Murrow rolls over in his grave. #Colbert @colbertlateshow

The Bronxville Post Office has been closed since July 17th with no explanation to residents or the Village of Bronxville. USPS has been unable to provide me or my office with a re-opening date. This is unacceptable. Today I sent a letter to the Postmaster General demanding…

The House was scheduled to vote on a bill this week that would reduce clean water standards and set us back in the fight for clean water. I've worked with others for decades to improve water quality in Long Island Sound and other local bodies of water, and know that we can't stop…

In addition to Mobile Office Hours in Eastchester tomorrow and Scarsdale on Friday, my constituent services team will also be in Mount Vernon on Wednesday. Stop by for individual assistance with issues related to federal agencies.

This week I met with the Long Island Sound Citizens Advisory Committee to talk about ways I can support their efforts to protect and preserve the Sound in Congress. I’m glad to be a new co-sponsor of the ESTUARIES Act which reauthorizes the National Estuary Program, preserving LI…

CBS cancels Stephen Colbert three days after he calls out the CBS lawsuit settlement with Trump over 60 Minutes. Time to investigate this mess. If House GOP won’t, I hope State AGs like Tish James will.

The Trump Administration is withholding over $400 million in education funding from NY State, jeopardizing educational programs that students and families rely on. The Dept. of Education should be promoting student achievement and ensuring equal access to quality education.…

This week I met with 9/11 Victim Compensation Fund Special Master Allison Turkel. There are hundreds of people in our district who may be eligible for compensation for physical illnesses or deaths related to 9/11. Registration is simple and can be done here:…

This week I met with Boys and Girls Club members from Mt. Vernon, New Rochelle and the Bronx. We discussed the Trump Admin's hold on funding for Nita M. Lowey 21st Century Community Learning Centers and how Boys & Girls Clubs will be harmed. Today it was announced that funding…

My constituent services team will be in Eastchester and Scarsdale next week for mobile office hours. Stop by for individual assistance with issues related to federal agencies like the IRS, Social Security or Dept. of Education.

Another bill passed in the dead of night. I voted NO. This one will rescind $9 billion in funding from critical foreign aid programs and public broadcasting here at home. All to enact an extreme ideological agenda.

President Trump claimed his tariff policy would help our economy and reduce inflation. This week confirmed what many of us have been concerned about – the Consumer Price Index ticked up in June and we expect it to continue to rise as Americans, not other countries, pay more for…

It is disheartening to see a bill in the Irish Parliament advance defining the sovereign State of Israel as an “occupying” entity in the Middle East. As an American of Irish heritage, I celebrate the full Irish independence finally achieved in 1949; that sense of national…

The Atlantic reported the Trump Admin is planning to spend $130,000 to incinerate $800,000 worth of high-nutrition biscuits- food that was meant for starving children in Afghanistan and Pakistan. This is more than wasteful. It’s cruel. We have abandoned our moral standing.
