This is the type of “call to action” that puts people’s lives in danger. We’re in the middle of a pandemic. No to crowds, no to in person harassment, and no to encouraging the type of action that caused people to try to hurt our representatives at the Capitol.

It’s a vital effort to make the City of Albany more walkable and pedestrian friendly. This is a priority in the City of Albany and the Madison Ave street calming is the first success as @sheabrian mentions in the undoing of decades of bad vehicle centric urban planing

Big challenge for cash-strapped local governments: undoing decades of decision-making that prioritized commuters over all. Woodlawn will be fixed - but it’s just one on a long list as Chris explains.

Was proud to advocate and help create the ACCORD pilot program in the 2020 budget and launched a few months ago. This program dispatches crisis trained social workers and emts instead of law enforcement to mental health crisis calls. Early signs are positive for the pilot program

The second is alcohol to go which worked well during the peak of the covid crisis and would go a long way in supporting and stabilizing our restaurants and bars that are barely hanging on. I applaud @GovKathyHochul on advancing both of these in this year’s state of the state.
