  • Yuh-Line Niou REPORTS to YOU
    ASSEMBLYMEMBER Winter 2018 Yuh-Line Niou REPORTS TO YOU Dear Neighbor, As your Assemblymember, I fight every day for the basic rights and diverse needs of our community. With so much happening and real change coming to Albany, I wanted to give you some updates! It’s an honor to represent lower Manhattan, and I’m proud of what we’ve accomplished this year. Together, we pushed for and passed the 9/11 Health Benefits Extender bill which gives our 9/11 responders the chance to obtain the benefits they deserve. As a testa- ment to our efforts, the 9/11 Health Benefits Extender bill was signed into law! On these legislative issues and more, your continued advocacy is what helps us prioritize what we need to keep fighting for. In response to plans for the proposed Manhattan Detention Center and Two Bridges Project, we submitted public testimonies and formal comments that outlined the concerns we shared on the effects projects like these have on our neighborhood. Our community has made it clear that we want real community-based planning that focuses on engaging us at every step and addressing the severe impacts our community experiences from massive projects. As we approach the upcoming legislative session, I encourage you to reach out to our office and attend our community budget and legislative town hall. Please let me know your concerns and priorities so we can fight for them together in Albany. A flyer for the town hall is enclosed in this report. I also wanted to remind you that we moved our office to 64 Fulton Street, Room 302.
