Rural New York continues getting shortchanged on resources from Albany. It's time we had a representative in the room when important decisions are being made who will make our voices heard within the majority party of state government so we are not left behind.
Responsible government involves developing trust and certainty within communities, so State government needs to be transparent as it works on behalf of all New Yorkers.
Our state senator needs to bridge divides among state government, local governments, politicians, and community groups and recognize what is an appropriate role for government in our society.
