Assemblyman Brian Maher on the State of the State

A statement from Assemblyman Brian Maher’s spokesperson and chief of staff.

“The governor’s rhetoric is not what New York families need. We can’t invest in child care before we fix the CCAP program. We must finally address bail reform and our continued staffing crisis within our prisons. We must begin the slow road back to showing our law enforcement community the respect and support they deserve. The affordability crisis continues to loom with rising energy costs and housing at the forefront. It is time to get specific and creative. It is time to work with both parties to serve the people of this great state. We cannot expect to solve our problems if we continue to talk past each other instead of to one another. Team Maher is ready to continue our work, and we will talk to anyone willing to serve the people before politics.”
