Political Quotes

“Mr. Speaker, as a point of personal privilege, I wish my daughter, Julianna Elena, a very happy first birthday today, April 19. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to recognize the success of some of our athletes in schools across New York's 17th District. Earlier this month was Student Athlete Day, a date on which we celebrate the achievements of the young men and women competing in interscholastic sporting events across our country. It has been a great winter season for our Hudson Valley athletes, and I would like to take a moment to congratulate some of these teams and individuals. Congratulations to Section 1 Boys Basketball champions, Tappan Zee High School, as well as the Boys Swimming champions, Horace Greeley High School. Congratulations also to Carly Sardo from Tappan Zee High School who was this season's floor champion in gymnastics, and Dami Modupe from North Rockland High School who won the girls 55-meter hurdles in indoor track and field. Our athletes should all be commended for their hard work during this season and throughout the year. ____________________”
