Dear Neighbor,

Together with Assemblywoman Nily Rozic and theAssembly Corporations & Authorities committee, I am holding a public hearing to address the need for more reliable and accessible transportation for our families.

Please join me for the hearing on Thursday, August 7th, 10:00 AM at 250 Broadway, Room 1923 in Manhattan.   
I have been a strong advocate to increase transit options for Queens' residents and will continue to fight until all our families are provided the transportation we deserve!

Invest in our Evacuation Routes
We have made tremendous progress in our Sandy recovery, however, we must not overlook the most basic necessity, which is the ability to evacuate our families quickly and safely. I have partnered with neighboring Nassau County legislator Howard Kopel to call on NYS DOT and Governor Cuomo to address this important issue immediately. Please join me in our fight to invest in our roadway infrastructure and sign my petition todayat www.FixOurRoadsNow.com 
Sandy Recovery Task Force Meeting  
I attended a very productive Sandy Recovery Task Force meeting convened and hosted by Borough President Melinda Katz at Queens Borough Hall. As our families recover, we must hold all agencies accountable and ensure programs like Build it Back are actually moving forward and working together to make real progress. While our families continue to suffer from the devastation caused by Sandy, every penny must be accounted for and provided to our families who need it most.
  
New Release!   
I was honored to write the foreword for this heartfelt and emotional story of Breezy Point during Sandy as told by one of our brave volunteers!

"As a resident of Breezy Point, a New York City police officer, and a volunteer firefighter in the Point Breeze Volunteer Fire Department, Sebastian Danese's experiences during the storm offer a unique insight on the challenges our community faced in the aftermath of Sandy. He and his fellow volunteers have served as a beacon of hope and strength for so many families drowning in grief. Their fearless dedication to our community before, during, and especially after the storm is truly remarkable."
