This year’s State Budget delivers real results for workers, families, and veterans.

✅ Tier 6 reforms for teachers, state workers, and first responders

✅ Inflationary support for human services professionals serving vulnerable New Yorkers

✅ Increased funding for food assistance, nutrition programs, and Universal School Meals

These investments strengthen our communities and help make New York more affordable for the people who call the Fourth Senate District home.

We proudly recognize Fourth Senate District Veteran Hall of Fame inductee Michael Sweeney for his extraordinary service, resilience, and commitment to uplifting fellow veterans. 🇺🇸

A proud graduate of West Babylon High School, Michael served honorably in the U.S. Navy from 1986 to 1996, including during Operation Desert Shield and Desert Storm. After facing significant challenges upon returning home, Michael turned adversity into purpose—finding healing through the support of the veteran community and dedicating himself to helping others do the same.

Through his work with Paws of War and several veteran-focused organizations across Long Island, Michael has become a mentor, advocate, and source of hope for countless veterans. Alongside his service dog, Storm, Michael continues to embody compassion, perseverance, and selfless service.

From being honored at a New York Islanders and New York Jets game to having his name added to the Wall of Honor at Eisenhower Park, Michael’s impact continues to inspire our community every day.

Congratulations, Michael, on this well-deserved recognition and thank you for your continued service to our country and our community.

This Memorial Day, we came together as a community across our district to honor the brave men and women who made the ultimate sacrifice in service to our nation.

From the moving ceremony at the Long Island State Veterans Home, to gathering with residents in Amityville Village and Central Islip, we remembered those who gave their lives defending our freedoms and paid tribute to the families who carry their legacy forward.

Their courage and sacrifice will never be forgotten.

Nearly 1 in 10 women of reproductive age live with a condition that isn’t covered anywhere in New York’s health education curriculum.

I stood alongside advocates, medical professionals, and community leaders to call for support of S6227/A7557. This legislation would allow New York schools to include education on menstrual disorders such as endometriosis in health curriculum.

The bill has already been approved by the Senate, and we encourage our colleagues in the Assembly to join us in advancing this important measure.

Too many young people suffer in silence because they lack the information needed to recognize symptoms and seek care.

By raising awareness and promoting early intervention, we can help ensure students have the knowledge to advocate for their health and well-being.

Another productive week in Albany!

I was proud to celebrate Italian-American Day and join colleagues for the annual Festa Italiana, recognizing the rich heritage and lasting contributions of New York’s Italian-American community. I also had the pleasure of honoring talented student artists from Brentwood and Wyandanch whose work was selected for display in the Legislative Office Building.

One of the highlights of the week was welcoming Brentwood High School student Sarai Barahona to shadow me through the Students Inside Albany program and learn firsthand about state government. I also met with advocates, including a group of yeshiva students, to discuss legislation establishing buffer zones around places of worship, and held productive conversations with stakeholders on issues impacting New York’s small businesses, restaurants, and workforce.

Thank you to everyone who took the time to engage in productive conversations as we continue working to strengthen our communities.

Congratulations to the incredible Brentwood Green Machine Marching Band on the honor of performing in Washington, D.C. during the celebration of our nation’s 250th birthday!

Your talent, dedication, and hard work have earned you a place on a national stage, and you represented Brentwood and New York with pride. Thank you to the students, directors, families, and supporters whose commitment makes achievements like this possible.

We are all proud of the Green Machine and look forward to seeing all that you accomplish next! 🇺🇸

On this Memorial Day, we gather as a nation to honor the courageous men and women of our Armed Forces who gave their lives in service to the United States. Their sacrifice secured the freedoms we too often take for granted, and their legacy lives on in the strength of our democracy.

We owe them more than remembrance, we owe them our commitment to uphold the ideals they fought to defend. May we strive each day to be worthy of their sacrifice, and may we never forget the cost of our freedom.
