Issue Position

We have some of the best farmers in the nation right here in the Hudson Valley, and I have worked diligently to increase funding for Agriculture Local Assistance programs and deliver $850,000 to market our agricultural products and programs statewide. I am also fighting for the "Grown in New York" campaign to increase the sale of locally grown produce and sponsor legislation to incorporate local products in our schools. I stand with the New York Farm Bureau and am humbled to have once again been inducted into their Circle of Friends for support of our local agriculture industry. Our farmers know that I will always have their backs in Albany.
