  • Letter to Charles-Lavine.21.03.17
    New York State Assembly KEVIN M. BYRNE KIERAN M. LALOR Assemblyman 94th District Assemblyman 105th District Westchester & Putnam Counties Dutchess County March 17, 2021 Honorable Charles D. Lavine Assemblymember & Chair of the Assembly Judiciary Committee Legislative Office Building 831 Albany, NY 12248 Chairman Charles Lavine: Throughout the course of the COVID-19 pandemic, our state has been tested in countless ways. Our work is not over, and the scandals coming from the Cuomo Administration have only added to the challenges we all face. The importance of the Judiciary Committee’s responsibility to investigate Governor Cuomo and the administration cannot be overstated. While it is important your committee is provided the time and resources it needs to conduct a thorough investigation, it is critical that there be no delays in your work. It would be wrong to afford Governor Cuomo and his administration the opportunity to further misuse his office by utilizing the budget process to impede or influence your investigation. In our state’s rich long history, only one Governor, William Sulzer, has ever been impeached. Like the Assembly Speaker did in 1913, Speaker Heastie has opted to begin the impeachment process with an investigative committee. The allegations against Governor Cuomo are far more serious and more numerous than those levied against Governor Sulzer, or more recently against Governor Elliot Spitzer. Many of these impeachable offenses were conducted in the middle of a pandemic when millions of New Yorkers were putting their faith in the Legislature and Governor Cuomo to be honest with them. The only thing that will restore the public’s trust in our state government is to provide New Yorkers the unvarnished truth in a timely manner.

Without their assistance and commitment this would not have been possible. Nicole Jordan, Executive Director Raul Espinal, Legislative Coordinator Nicole Weir, Legislative Intern Adrienne L.

This book reflects the challenges that resolute men and women of color have addressed and the progress that we have helped New Yorkers achieve over the decades. Since this book was first published in 1977, new legislators of color have arrived in the Senate and Assembly to continue to change the color and improve the function of New York State government. In its 48 years of existence, I am proud to note that the Caucus has grown not only in size but in its diversity. Originally a group that primarily represented the Black population of New York City, the Caucus is now composed of members from across the State representing an even more diverse people.
