Co-signed Bill to Push Back Primary Date to Accomodate Rosh Hashanah
After a call from a constituent, I cosponsored S7597, which would change the statewide primary date from Tues, 9/11 to Thurs. 9/13 in recognition of Rosh Hashanah and the 9/11 terrorist attacks. This is one more reason to push for early voting and no-excuse absentee voting- New Yorkers should not have to choose between religious observance and voting! Our current law does not include religious observance as a reason to vote absentee.
