Senator O'Mara joined WLEA's Brian O'Neil on the "Newsmaker" show for Thursday, January 19th.
The interview covered several issues including the Senate Democrat majority's rejection of Governor Hochul's nomination for the next Chief Judge of the state's highest court and this week's public hearing on New York State's continued push for a far-reaching renewable energy agenda -- and the consequences facing all New Yorkers.
