Former Speaker Sentenced In Corruption Trial

A statement from Assemblyman John Mikulin (R,C,I,Ref-Bethpage)

“I made the decision to come to Albany to be part of a movement that will make a difference in the lives of Nassau County residents and residents throughout our state. The number one thing we can do is root out corruption so the Legislature is truly working for the people in an efficient and effective manner. Today, disgraced former Assembly Speaker Sheldon Silver was sentenced for his crimes and that is a big step in this fight against the systemic corruption in Albany. Legislators and the Executive must be put on notice: we will not tolerate corruption any longer.”
