Dear Neighbor,

As you know, I was sworn in as your Assemblyman in January of this year.

This has been a busy and challenging first year. My previous government experience as a County Legislator and Greenburgh Town Councilman was invaluable in preparing me to immediately participate in policy discussions.

The Governor and the Legislature spent considerable effort attempting to reduce the cost of government.

Now we need to dedicate our efforts to stimulating job growth.

I will try to keep you informed about what we are doing in the Legislature – through mailings, e-mails and posts on my website and facebook page.

In the meantime, I would appreciate your input to help me formulate my agenda and priorities for next year. Please complete the attached survey and return it to my office.

Please don’t hesitate to contact my office on any matter.

Sincerely,
signature
