BRONX EXPLORER RECOGNITION CEREMONY!

Thank you Bronx NYPD Community Affairs Bureau for welcoming me to your 1st Bronx Explorer Recognition Ceremony!

Congratulations to all of the honorees!

TOURING THE HUNTS POINT PRODUCE MARKET

Stopped by the Hunts Point Produce Market to discuss progress on the rebuilding of new facilities for their produce cooperative market. 

Over 68% of New York City's food supply comes from the Hunts Point Markets. Now more than ever, the government must continue working to ensure that our markets are first-rate and equipped with the necessary resources to continue fueling our great City.
