“I’m pleased to continue working with the Executive Chamber on projects that will improve safety, convenience and accessibility for our residents and those visiting the Greater Capital Region. I appreciate the Governor listening to my requests from a meeting earlier this year and providing funding for the Albany International Airport. The $60 million award announced for the airport will focus on modernization of security at checkpoints and creating spaces to make traveling easier and more enjoyable for all. Congratulations to the Board of Directors and CEO Calderone for successfully submitting the application and thank you for your steadfast partnership. Thank you also to Senator Neil Breslin and Assembly members Neil Breslin, Pat Fahy, John McDonald and Phil Steck for their activism. I will continue to zealously advocate on these and all matters for our great county!”
