It's Giving Tuesday - a world wide movement where we reimagine a world built on shared humanity and generosity.
So we are giving a SHOUT OUT and THANK YOU to all of our amazing pro bono volunteers who are so generous with their time to help make the world a more just place!

October 20th is National Go Purple Thursday to raise awareness of domestic violence. The Legal Project was founded in 1995 to help DV victims access justice. Today we wore our purple proudly. We believe you and will continue to fight for you! #starttheconversation

@RepPaulTonko Thank you for supporting our work!

Wonderful to meet today with local immigrant and refugee advocacy organizations to hear how my office and I can best support the vital work these groups do in our communities.

I’m proud to lend my support to their efforts to make the Capital Region a welcoming place for all!

We’re tired of thoughts and prayers. What we need is action. What we need is common sense gun reform that helps reduce violence.

Thankfully we have leaders in New York like @GovKathyHochul and @LtGovDelgado but it’s time for the federal government to act. #MarchForOurLives

Survivors’ requests for services can be complex. Programs deserve the ability to innovate delivery and meet these needs. https://t.co/FyYmZyFYpu #Safety4DVSurvivors

On just one day, DV advocates served over 6,600 survivors but the work is far from done. https://t.co/FyYmZyXzO4 #Safety4DVSurvivors
