Statement From Senate Majority Leader Andrea Stewart-Cousins

“I offer my heartfelt congratulations to President-elect Joe Biden and Vice President-elect Kamala Harris on winning the 2020 Presidential Election. Both Joe and Kamala are inspirational and historic leaders, and I know they will help our nation heal after the trauma of the past four years. Following an unprecedented election and outrageous behavior from President Donald Trump, now is the time for us all to move forward. The NYS Senate Democratic Majority will work with the Biden/Harris administration to help New York recover from this pandemic and economic crisis. Now is the time to heal the deep divisions in our society and come together as New Yorkers and Americans to build a stronger, more respectful, and more just state and nation.”
