Happy Thanksgiving!

As we enjoy precious time with loved ones, let’s not forget those struggling with food insecurity.

Even a small donation of food, money or time can make a big difference. Please consider supporting a nearby food pantry.

Improved allergen labeling will help protect the nearly 2 million New Yorkers living with food allergies.

My legislation to list allergens on prepackaged foods was signed into law earlier this month to give residents peace of mind–and save lives.

During #NationalSchoolLunchWeek, let’s remember: well-nourished students learn better.

That’s why I worked with my colleagues and the Governor to secure $360M for NY’s Universal School Meal Program, guaranteeing a nutritious breakfast and lunch for all 2.7M of our students.

Since 2009, Climate Week has served as a vital platform to spotlight the growing threat of climate change.

As extreme weather worsens and federal policies roll back progress, raising awareness and taking action has never been more urgent.
