State Senator Gustavo Rivera and U.S. Senator Kirsten Gillibrand Celebrate NYCHA Bailey Houses' "Empowering the Community" Day



On Friday August 10, State Senator Gustavo Rivera and U.S. Senator Kirsten Gillibrand joined residents of NYCHA's Bailey Houses at their second annual "Empowering the Community" Family Day celebration. 

During their visit, State Senator Gustavo Rivera and U.S. Senator Kirsten Gillibrand were able to partake in the day-long festivity along many residents of Bailey Houses. Further, they shared valuable time with Tiesha Jones, President of the Bailey Houses' Resident Council and the inspiration behind the creation of Dakota's Law, a bill sponsored by Senator Rivera in the New York State Senate that would prevent lead exposure in children across New York. 





Senator Gillibrand and Senator Rivera enjoyed the festivities of the event with Bailey Houses residents.
