My office joined farmers, Cortland County Soil & Water, and state partners at Van Patten Farms to mark $25 million for agricultural water-quality projects. This funding helps farms install the practices that protect streams, and strengthen rural economies.

I enjoyed attending Mrs. Murat’s AP Government and Politics class at Maine-Endwell Central School District. It was inspiring to hear students' thoughtful questions about local government and policy. I also appreciated the opportunity to share the work we’re doing in the New York State Senate.
