14                Rabbi?  

15                RABBI LOEVINGER:   Thank you, 

16   honored Senators and guests.  

17                Thank you, Senator Serino, for the 

18   invitation.

19                Please come and visit Poughkeepsie 

20   sometime.  I bring you greetings from Health 

21   Quest, the premier medical system which I'm 

22   honored to serve; we're building the most 

23   beautiful hospital in New York.  I hope you only 

24   visit as a guest.

                                                               3965

 1                RABBI LOEVINGER:   Last week -- 

 2   yeah, somebody got it.

 3                Last week in our biblical reading 

 4   we read a story in the Book of Numbers of a man 

 5   named Korach, who challenged Moses for the 

 6   leadership of the Israelites.  And Korach sought 

 7   a position of leadership not out of a desire to 

 8   serve, but out of a desire to rule for his own 

 9   sense of power and wanting glory and dominion 

10   over others.

11                And this kind of leadership causes 

12   division, strife and, in the story we read in 

13   the Book of Numbers, even death.

14                There is a resolution at the end of 

15   the story when Moses affirms to his brother 

16   Aaron, the high priest of the Israelites, that 

17   leadership does not mean only power and glory 

18   for the leader, but rather leadership means 

19   service, bearing in mind the entire people and 

20   their needs, bearing in mind that you serve a 

21   greater community and a greater good -- a kind 

22   of leadership that is now called servant 

23   leadership, which is, in its root, biblical 

24   leadership.  

25                And this is the kind of leadership 


                                                               3966

 1   that I pray to the source of my strength that 

 2   all of us in this chamber are blessed to 

 3   accomplish.  This is true leadership:  Service, 

 4   humility, bound together with others through the 

 5   values we all share.  Values like healing, hope, 

 6   justice, mercy, fairness, equality, dignity and 

 7   generosity.  

 8                We believe many things in this 

 9   wonderfully diverse State of New York.  We have 

10   many faiths, and some of us have no particular 

11   religious faith, but we are bound together in a 

12   commitment to serve.

13                And so I turn to the one I call 

14   God, the source of my strength, the source of my 

15   wisdom, who you may know through a different 

16   name or through a different experience.  But I 

17   hope you will turn to that source of meaning in 

18   your life and find that core of values that can 

19   bind you to others and the common work of 

20   leadership for our great state -- the values 

21   that bind us together as a citizenry, and the 

22   values that will bring our state and our common 

23   mission together into a great future together.

24                I thank God for the strength that 

25   we may all accomplish this, and I thank you for 


                                                               3967

 1   the privilege of being here today.

 2                ACTING PRESIDENT GRIFFO:   Thank 

 3   you, Rabbi.

 7   Comrie to explain his vote.

 8                SENATOR COMRIE:   Mr. President, I'm 

 9   a no on this bill.  

10                I think that it creates a diminution 

11   of services to children when we now more than 

12   ever need to make sure that our children that are 

13   suffering through trauma, through changes, 

14   through bullying, through all of the things that 

15   beset our young children, where they're going to 

16   be now not given the same level of service by 

17   trained doctorates who have an opportunity to 

18   make sure that our children are taken care of.

19                I'm very concerned that while we 

20   need a major overhaul in our school system, while 

21   we don't have enough counselors to take care of 

22   our children now, that we're going to create an 

23   opportunity to lower the bar and make it more 

24   problematic to ensure that all of the treatment 

25   modalities that have been proven true and 


                                                               4023

 1   effective will be also not happening for our 

 2   children.  

 3                So therefore I must vote no on this 

 4   bill.  I have many people that have come to me 

 5   that have told me that the reason that there are 

 6   not enough school counselors in the schools is 

 7   because we haven't funded them.  But to create a 

 8   sea of people that are not fully trained in 

 9   dealing with all of the things that our children 

10   are facing will be a disservice also.  

11                I vote no.

12                ACTING PRESIDENT GRIFFO:   Senator 

13   Comrie to be recorded in the negative.

14                Senator Stavisky to explain her 

15   vote.

16                SENATOR STAVISKY:   Thank you, 

17   Mr. President.  

18                I had some problems with this bill 

19   which I discussed in the committee.  And there 

20   are some good things in this bill.  It highlights 

21   the need for school psychologists.  It emphasizes 

22   the need for Medicaid reimbursement for school 

23   psychologists.  There are a lot of good things in 

24   here.  

25                But I too am going to be a no vote, 


                                                               4024

 1   because while I agree with the objectives of the 

 2   bill, I think we have to take a careful look and 

 3   fine-tune some of the definitions of 

 4   psychologists, because there are many different 

 5   kinds of psychologists.  And if you're going to 

 6   call yourself a psychologist, this is a 

 7   doctoral-level profession.  

 8                And I will vote no.  Thank you, 

 9   Mr. President.

21                SENATOR KRUEGER:   Thank you.  

22                I note that many of us changed our 

23   votes from a yes to a no this year.  That's 

24   because the Regents already followed through on 

25   what they hoped we would do, which is they have 


                                                               4028

 1   implemented an alternative path to a high school 

 2   degree through vocational ed high school 

 3   programs.  

 4                So I think we're voting no to make 

 5   sure that we don't send two conflicting messages.  

 6   One, the Regents have done something; let's see 

 7   how it works.  And two, let's not confuse the 

 8   mission by putting in different and not parallel 

 9   proposals at a time when many of us think they 

10   finally did what we hoped they'd do.  

11                So I'm voting no, Mr. President, 

12   thank you.

20                SENATOR KAMINSKY:   Thank you, 

21   Mr. President.

22                Water is an extremely precious 

23   resource.  And a problem we have when we deal 

24   with conservation is simply that consumers don't 

25   know how much they're using, because their water 


                                                               4043

 1   bills often come in cubic feet.  This bill is a 

 2   common-sense measure on Long Island which would 

 3   have water purveyors detail in gallons how much 

 4   water consumers are actually using.  

 5                It will also have a seasonal output 

 6   so you know how much you're using season to 

 7   season, as well as a year-to-date metric so 

 8   consumers are knowing this year versus last year 

 9   and of course how they're doing over the course 

10   of a year in utilizing water.  

11                If we want to get people to start 

12   thinking about conservation, the first thing they 

13   need to start thinking about is, at home, how 

14   much water they're actually using.  I think 

15   people will be really shocked when they see in 

16   gallons how much water they're using a year and 

17   will want to take efforts help conserve their 

18   water usage.

19                It's a common-sense bill.  I urge my 

20   colleagues to vote yes.  

21                Thank you, Mr. President.

22                ACTING PRESIDENT GRIFFO:   Senator 

23   Kaminsky to be recorded in the affirmative.

14   roll.

15                (The Secretary called the roll.)

16                ACTING PRESIDENT GRIFFO:   Senator 

17   Boyle to explain his vote.

18                SENATOR BOYLE:   Mr. President, to 

19   explain my vote.  

20                This bill handles the situation -- 

21   which happens more frequently than you might 

22   think -- of a homeowner who takes their oil tank 

23   out of the basement and doesn't notify the 

24   company that's doing the oil delivery.  Many 

25   times oil is then delivered by the oil company 


                                                               4045

 1   all over the basement, hundreds of gallons.  

 2   Obviously, it's an environmental and safety 

 3   nightmare.  Houses have been destroyed as a 

 4   result of it.  It's a common-sense proposal.  

 5                But most importantly, Mr. President, 

 6   I'd like to thank the chief advocate for this, a 

 7   gentleman we lost recently, Kevin Rooney, the CEO 

 8   of the Oil Heat Institute of Long Island.  He was 

 9   the CEO for 25 years.  Kevin was a renaissance 

10   man, a brilliant individual, and a fierce 

11   advocate for the oil heat industry.  I want to 

12   thank Kevin.  Rest in peace.  

13                And I vote aye.

14                ACTING PRESIDENT GRIFFO:   Senator 

15   Boyle to be recorded in the affirmative.

 5   Mr. President.

 6                HPD does an excellent job, in most 

 7   cases, to help keep homeownership affordable.  

 8   However, there are cases, and I can speak of a 

 9   few, where HPD has okayed contractors to come 

10   in -- one contractor actually put the heating 

11   system at the ceiling.  At the ceiling.  Which 

12   means that the home would never be warm.  There's 

13   nothing that you can do.  And despite as many 

14   attempts as we have made, nothing was done to 

15   reverse that.  And there are many cases like 

16   that.  

17                If that's the case, then we need a 

18   vehicle by which normal, everyday people who find 

19   themselves, through no fault of their own, 

20   relying on HPD -- and if HPD says that this is a 

21   good product, then they should make the homeowner 

22   right and not have the homeowner chase after the 

23   contractor, who has far more money at his 

24   disposal for law fees.  And ultimately the 

25   homeowner is the person who is just out of luck.  


                                                               4048

 1   So this bill is an attempt to correct that 

 2   injustice.

 3                I want to thank everyone who voted 

 4   for it.  I want to even thank those who 

 5   mistakenly voted against it, and I want to give

25                Thank you to my colleagues for 


                                                               4052

 1   supporting this important piece of legislation in 

 2   rethinking how we are going to go about economic 

 3   development in the State of New York.  

 4                I am a huge believer in worker 

 5   cooperatives, worker-owned businesses, and this 

 6   bill would be able to create co-ops and funding 

 7   for microbusinesses, which are businesses that 

 8   have less than five people.  And as we know, 

 9   small businesses are the lifeblood of our 

10   community.  

11                But I take this opportunity to have 

12   us in this chamber think about worker 

13   cooperatives as a really viable economic engine 

14   in the State of New York.  

15                I had the pleasure of being able to 

16   go to Mondragon, Spain, last September, where 

17   they have cooperative communities and they have a 

18   cooperative ecosystem.  And it's more egalitarian 

19   way of sharing wealth without necessarily leaning 

20   towards socialism as people believe it.  

21                And I believe that worker 

22   cooperatives are the next wave of economic 

23   development in our state -- better governance, 

24   higher wages, but still a pure business model.  

25   At the end of the day, if you have a poor 


                                                               4053

 1   business, your business will not succeed.  And 

 2   this is not intended to be a crutch for 

 3   businesses, but this is just intended to fund 

 4   businesses that are doing well and can do well.  

 5                And I thank my colleagues again for 

 6   voting aye.  

 7                I vote aye, Mr. President.

 5                SENATOR BAILEY:   Thank you, 

 6   Mr. President.  

 7                Approximately three years ago I sat 

 8   down with a principal in my district, my 

 9   namesake, Principal Jamaal Bowman, and we spoke 

10   about ACEs.  And it's not aces as in tennis or 

11   aces as in a hole-in-one, but ACEs as in Adverse 

12   Childhood Experiences.  They use a scale from 

13   zero to 10 to measure what childhood trauma is 

14   and how it affects our students.  And the higher 

15   the score, the more adversity that one is facing.  

16                And I encourage all my colleagues to 

17   Google "take an ACE score" and you can see how 

18   many adverse circumstances that you may have 

19   faced.  And the higher the score, as I said, the 

20   more adversity you faced.  And you have 

21   categories of these ACEs -- abuse, neglect, and 

22   household dysfunction.  And the higher the score, 

23   the more likely it is for a child to experience 

24   dysfunction in school.

25                A lot of times when we look at our 


                                                               4057

 1   children as to why they're failing, it's not 

 2   because they don't have the intellectual 

 3   aptitude, it's because there are external factors 

 4   that are affecting their ability to learn.  And 

 5   while I hope for more things in this area of 

 6   childhood trauma, I'm glad that we're taking the 

 7   first step in passing this study so that we can 

 8   really study what is affecting our children 

 9   inside and outside of the classroom.  

10                Ultimately, I believe that each 

11   child should be screened for ACEs with their 

12   physicians, but that's a little bit ahead of the 

13   game.  But I think that at the very least this 

14   study is a great start to get administrators, 

15   teachers and everybody in the school building 

16   thinking about how our children are facing trauma 

17   on a day-to-day basis and how it affects their 

18   ability to learn.  

19                Once again, I thank my colleagues 

20   for supporting this important piece of 

21   legislation.  And I vote aye, Mr. President.

22                ACTING PRESIDENT GRIFFO:   Senator 

23   Bailey in the affirmative.
