Congressman Tom Suozzi (D – NY03) and Congressman Tom Reed (R – NY23) are joining a digital press conference with New York State Association of Counties (NYSAC) Executive Director Stephen J. Acquario to talk about how New York’s counties and Congressional Delegation are working together in a bipartisan way to support local governments as they lead the response to COVID-19 and the reopening of their communities.
Both congressional members have been working hard with the rest of the state’s bipartisan Congressional Delegation to develop a Congressional solution that will help address the dramatic impact that the novel coronavirus has had on communities across New York State.
“Never has the county-federal partnership been as important as it is right now,” said NYSAC Executive Director Stephen J. Acquario, as he announced his two guests for a 10:30 a.m. May 27th press conference. “Without federal assistance, New York State, counties, schools and local governments face wide-ranging program cuts, service interruptions, and layoffs at a time when we are restarting our economies and continuing to battle the spread of the disease.
