Great afternoon at Buffalo Rogue Field in Getzville supporting the Buffalo Rogue Travel Baseball Organization! Beautiful weather, kids competing hard, and a great facility.

I am VERY happy to hear the County Legislature voted this afternoon to overturn the County Executive’s veto on the youth hunting law.

Incredible effort by all the advocates of the law to write, email and call Legislators. You’re the reason this got done.

As we start our garden & patios flowers this spring, go out & support our incredible and beautiful local greenhouses! RATH means business ! #donspothgreenhouses

Disappointed this couldn’t get done at the Legislature. Some talk affordability but do nothing about it.

I appreciate the efforts of the Republican Legislators and hope they keep pushing.

Had a fun time at Buff State’s Public Service Recognition Week this morning with Ken Kujawa (National Grid), Laurie Buonanno (Buffalo State, Dept of Public Admin), and Ken Stone (formerly of the Buffalo Erie County Library System)!

Great investment from the Kreher family, who I have long considered friends.
Always lending wisdom about agriculture and our local farming community.

This morning, the Erie County Legislature's Energy & Environment Committee is discussing the youth hunting law.

I supported this Youth Hunting Law previously as an Erie County Legislator and NY State Senator.

Today I attended the International Day of Sharing, and visited Dawn Snyder and other members of the Clarence Community Foundation (@ClarenceCCF). It was warm and wonderful to experience so many different cultures come together for the greater good of our community.

Rest in peace Charlie Kirk. My prayers are with you and your family. All of this senseless violence must stop now - it has absolutely no place in our country.

@BuffaloBills @Andre_Reed83 @thebflostore My favorite Bill from that era

[NYS Senate Republicans @nysenategop]

At the same time she's crying foul and calling out Texas’s mid-decade redistricting attempt, she's fully embraced the same efforts by NYS Democrats. She's implied NY Democrats are willing to destroy democracy in order to “save democracy” – it is the height of hypocrisy.

[Susan Wenger @SusanWBEN]

"This is nothing other than partisan politics." A former state senator cautions state lawmakers against redistricting. @EdRath

New York needs a break from partisan redistricting. Click the link for my opinion piece on Substack

Scathing column on Kathy Hochul & NY Democrats’ unconstitutional and desperate power grab to try to gerrymander and suppress the will of NY voters for a THIRD time:

“Heastie’s attempt to clamber onto the moral high ground is hilariously disingenuous because, as you may remember, New York Democrats did not give a hoot about playing fair when given a chance to draw congressional boundaries, or state Senate and Assembly districts. Instead, when a supposedly independent redistricting commission collapsed in 2022, they came up with districts that were wildly partisan and horrendously cynical.

The maps, which likely would have guaranteed Democratic victories in 22 of New York’s 26 congressional districts, were so egregiously awful that the Court of Appeals rebuffed the plan, reminding lawmakers that state voters previously made their distaste for gerrymandering clear in language added to the state constitution.”
