Reform is a word that is tossed around a lot by elected officials. By definition the word reform means to change and improve something by correcting faults – hard to argue with that concept. Looking at our state government, certainly a few faults need to be corrected. But simply saying you support reform, and making real improvements, are two different things
I have fought for a number of key reforms during my time in the state senate. With my support, legislation has been approved to open up the state budget process, create a more transparent senate and clean up Albany. Unfortunately, over the last two years, one party rule has dominated state government and many of the landmark reforms have been ignored.
