"The Senate Majority has been working for years to clean up the Hudson River and banned off-shore oil drilling last year in New York State's waters. The Hudson River is a valuable natural resource and should not become a parking lot for oil barges. I applaud Congressman Sean Patrick Maloney on his continued efforts to protect our environment, wildlife, and the viability of the Hudson River."
