Congratulations, Senator Valesky

In its inaugural post, The CNY Watch would like to extend its congratulations to State Senator Dave Valesky for being elevated to the post of Vice President Pro-Tem of the New York State Senate. We hope that his new position in the Senate leadership will help refocus Albany’s efforts on economic development and revitalization of Central and Upstate New York. In addition, we are encouraged by the new bipartisan reform committee that Valesky is set to co-chair, especially in the wake of the report from the Brennan Center that still describes the legislative process in New York as “dysfunctional” and “broken.” Best of luck, Senator. You’ll need it.
