Senator Gustavo Rivera on Senate Floor Vote on Honorable Rowan Wilson

 

GOVERNMENT HEADER

“I am pleased to join my Senate Majority colleagues in support of the Honorable Rowan Wilson and congratulate him on becoming New York’s next Chief Judge. In Judge Wilson we have found an illustrious and qualified candidate for this position, a highly respected jurist whose distinguished academic background and vast body of work includes over 100 dissents and concurrences. Judge Wilson has demonstrated his commitment to impart justice for all New Yorkers, especially those who are marginalized or lack power. As the first Black New Yorker to hold this important position, Judge Wilson, a trailblazer in his own right, will undoubtedly inspire thousands across New York State to pursue a career in public service and law. I want to thank Governor Hochul for putting forth this impressive nomination and I look forward to the work Judge Wilson will contribute, particularly at this precarious moment in our country's history where so many judges are legislating from the bench."
