White Plains, NY -- Threats of violence against Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg or any other prosecutor are unacceptable and have no place in a democratic society. This behavior is not only unpatriotic, but it is un-American. The use of violent rhetoric or actions to advance political agendas is immoral and undermines the rule of law on which this nation is founded. Moreover, such actions have a chilling effect on the ability of prosecutors to carry out their duties impartially and fairly, ultimately weakening the judicial system. Any threat against public officials who build a career in service to the People should be condemned, and responsible parties must be held accountable for their actions.

White Plains, NY —  In an effort to promote transparency and accountability among County elected officials, the Westchester County Board of Legislators voted 15-0 to approve the “Truthful Disclosure for Candidates” bill (2023-86) tonight. The inspiration for this legislation was born from the controversy surrounding Long Island Congressman George Santos, who is under ethical review after revealing he misrepresented his educational and professional background.

We, the Westchester County Board of Legislators, vehemently oppose plans to dump an estimated one million gallons of radioactive wastewater containing carcinogenic contaminants into the Hudson River. This would undermine decades of successful environmental conservation and cleanup efforts on the Hudson River. Moreover, this disposal method poses disastrous health risks to plant, marine, and human life. For this reason, on March 6, 2023, our Board passed a resolution to amplify these concerns and opposition to the proposal. We were joined by our sister county, Rockland, who passed a similar resolution on March 9.
