Nassau’s municipalities are receiving a 31% increase on average in state funding for local roads! Thank you to our Senate delegation for fighting so hard to get this done. Infrastructure investments are crucial to our economy, getting people back to work & safe reliable roadways.

Good to see the US Senate pass the COVID-19 Hate Crimes Act, sending a powerful message to #StopAsianHate.

I was proud to stand with @SenSchumer in support of this legislation. Thank you Majority Leader Schumer and @RepGraceMeng for getting this done.

Community leaders, elected officials, and residents from across LI came together today to say loud & proud that hate has no place in our County.

Thanks to everyone who showed their support at the #StopAsianHate rally and stood in solidarity with our Asian American communities.

[Laura Curran @LauraCurran516]

Horrified by news of a mass shooting in Georgia allegedly targeting Asians.

On Sunday, Nassau County stood up and spoke out together against the rising tide of Anti-Asian attacks.

To our Asian community: we are with you.

[Steve Bellone @SteveBellone]

The shootings in #Atlanta were acts of domestic terrorism — plain and simple. The influx of hate crimes perpetrated against Asian-Americans across our nation is unacceptable, and we must continue to stomp out hate and bigotry in any form.

[Laura Curran @LauraCurran516]

117,015 Nassau residents have now received the completed COVID-19 vaccine series, while 15.6% of residents have received at least one dose – the highest percentage among downstate Counties.

This article offers some insight about common concerns people have regarding the vaccine.

@NassauExecutive @NassauCountyOAA @FarrahMozawalla Thanks for your Holiday greeting!

Asian-Americans have been threatened and assaulted as #COVID19 scapegoats since the outbreak.

Kudos to the House of Reps for passing
@RepGraceMeng's #HRes908, which condemns attacks and calls for promptly investigating hate crimes.

[Grace Meng @RepGraceMeng]

My #HRes908 condemning anti-Asian sentiment related to #COVID19 just passed the House. 🙌

We reject racism.

Thankful 4 my colleagues' support.

It's on @senatemajldr 2 allow the Senate 2 pass the Senate version of my resolution by @SenDuckworth, @SenKamalaHarris & @maziehirono.
