This Monday, we pay tribute to Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr., an American hero who helped lead the civil rights movement and devoted his life to the fight for justice and equality.
Dr. King forcefully and eloquently shared his dream for our country, and helped inspire a nation to grow and change for the better.
For more information on how New York State is paying tribute to the life of Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr., please visit the New York State Dr. Martin Luther King Holiday Memorial Observance web site by clicking here: http://www.nyking.org/Default.htm
I encourage all New Yorkers to remember Dr. King, and to reflect upon his example, his accomplishments, and his legacy of service.
