ERRIGO APPOINTED RANKING MEMBER ON CHILDREN & FAMILIES; BANKS, ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT AND TRANSPORTATION COMMITTEES

     I have recently been appointed to the Economic Development and Transportation Committees by Assembly Republican Leader Jim Tedisco. I am honored to serve on these important committees and I look forward to working with my Assembly colleagues to improve New York’s business climate as well as overseeing the states growing transportation needs.

     I will also continue to serve as ranking member of the Children and Families Committee.

     I believe our children are our greatest resource and I will use my position to ensure that the state meets its responsibility, providing our children with the services and programs they need to succeed in life.

     I will continue to serve as a member of the Banks Committee which enhances consumer banking protections and maintains a competitive balance among financial institutions.

     By working together, my Assembly Republican colleagues and I can continue to make New York state a better place to live.
