Statement from Senator Malcolm A. Smith
Malcolm A. Smith
January 7, 2011
“ I would like to congratulate my personal friend and colleague Eric Schneiderman on his new post serving as our state’s Attorney General. Eric was one of our strongest advocates that helped sheppard the passage of the Rockefeller drug law reform legislation. I am confident that the tenacity and unrelenting work ethic that made him a great Senator will also make him a great Attorney General. I take solace in knowing that AG Schneiderman will be only one floor away and I look forward to working with him. ”
