New York State Assembly - Member Section

Assembly District 64

Sheldon Silver

Dear Neighbor,

As your Assemblyman, I am fighting for what’s important to Lower Manhattan residents. I remain committed to ensuring our children receive a quality education, and our families and seniors have access to quality, affordable health care. I want to make sure that we protect and improve our affordable housing stock, keep our streets safe, and maintain our public transportation system.

My home here on the Internet can be a valuable resource for Lower Manhattan residents. You can review my policy papers, get detailed information about the enacted state budget, learn how we reformed the outdated Rockefeller Drug Laws and receive informative community updates.

Please let me know how I can be of assistance to you so that together, we can continue to make progress in our community.

Thanks for visiting,

Sheldon Silver
Member of Assembly
