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.
This morning I joined my NY and CT colleagues for a roundtable with the LI Sound Citizens Advisory Committee to discuss ways we in Congress can improve the health of the Long Island Sound. I look forward to collaborating on legislation to protect and preserve the Sound for…

The phones in my White Plains office are down and with the rain last night, we're not sure when they will be back up and running. However, calls are being routed through my DC office. So if you need assistance, calling 202-225-2464 or 914-323-5550 will get you to my staff.
I'm looking forward to my next virtual conversation on Wednesday @ 6:30pm to discuss a variety of issues that we're dealing with in DC and how I am working on your behalf. RSVP and submit your questions here: forms.gle/egPrduip8fAtrC…
