April 12, 2022
CARLE PLACE, NY (APRIL 12, 2022) - State Senator Anna M. Kaplan (D-North Hills) issued the following statement today following the arrest of Lt. Governor Brian Benjamin:
Senator Anna M. Kaplan said, "As elected officials, we are held to a higher standard of conduct, and there can be no room for even the appearance of wrongdoing that would betray the public trust. The allegations made today against Lt. Governor Benjamin are serious, disturbing, and if true, reflect conduct that is incompatible with public service in New York, so I’m calling on Lt. Governor Benjamin to resign immediately."
