Sammy’s Law re-launched!

Dozens of elected officials and supporting organizations joined outside of Speaker Heastie’s NYC office to demand that the New York State Legislature pass Sammy’s Law in the rapidly approaching legislative session. Participants included Comptroller Lander, NYC DOT, State Senator Hoylman-Sigal, Assemblymembers Rosenthal, Simon, Glick, Borres, Carroll, Transportation Alternatives, DC 37 Local372, AARP-NY, Good Shepherd Services, the New York Board of Rabbis, Riseboro, Consumer Reports, Kids and Car Safety, .05 Saves Lives Coalition, Tri-State Transportation Campaign, Open Plans, and more. Sammy’s Law would empower New York City to set its own speed limits.

A huge thank you to FSS members Robin Middleman, Raul Ampuero, Kate Brockwehl, Agustina Cano, Eduardo Gil, Margarita Flores, Fabiola Mendieta-Cuapio, Joan Dean, and Amy Cohen for sharing their stories and showing up once again to demand action.
