  • The House Will Come to Order. in the Absence of Clergy, Let Us Pause for a Moment of Silence
    TUESDAY, APRIL 21, 2015 2:39 P.M. ACTING SPEAKER AUBRY: The House will come to order. In the absence of clergy, let us pause for a moment of silence. (Whereupon, a moment of silence was observed.) Visitors are invited to join the members in the Pledge of Allegiance. (Whereupon, Acting Speaker Aubry led visitors and members in the Pledge of Allegiance.) A quorum being present, the Clerk will read the Journal of Monday, April 20th. Mr. Morelle MR. MORELLE: Yes, Mr. Speaker. I move to 1 NYS ASSEMBLY APRIL 21, 2015 dispense with the further reading of the Journal of Monday, April 20th and ask that the same stand approved. ACTING SPEAKER AUBRY: Without objection, so ordered. Mr. Morelle. MR. MORELLE: Yes. Good afternoon, Mr. Speaker; good afternoon, colleagues. I hope everyone enjoyed a brief respite and are anxious to get back to work here and continue our work. Before I announce our schedule for the day, let me just note a couple of historical facts about this date, April 21st, in history. For instance, Mr. Speaker, colleagues, you might find interesting that on this day in 1789, one of our nation's Founding Fathers, John Adams, was sworn in at New York City's Federal Hall as our nation's first Vice President. After serving two terms, Mr. Adams went on to serve as the second President of the United States and continued to contribute to our nation's history as a statesman. On this date in 1965, the New York City World's Fair opened in New York for its second and final season.
