A STATEMENT FROM NYS SENATOR BILL LARKIN ON THE VETO OF THE VETERAN’S EQUALITY ACT
October 27, 2015
Senator Bill Larkin (R-C, Cornwall-on-Hudson) said today: “I am extremely disappointed with Governor Cuomo’s veto of the Veteran’s Equality Act (S.5937/A.8174-A). Sadly, with this veto, New York has failed to keep its commitment to the men and women of our armed forces. We cannot however become disheartened. Despite the Governor’s veto, I will not stop advocating for the correction of the inequalities created under New York’s current veteran service credit law and will continue to do all I can to ensure that all New York’s veterans receive the benefits they rightfully deserve.”
