Historic Win to Protect Plum Island
<[link removed]>
A historic win in the effort to save Plum Island! Over the last two weeks,
while Congressional funding was being negotiated, I worked closely with Senator
Ron Johnson, and Department of Homeland Security and White House leaders to
secure language that will reverse the 2008 federal law that required Plum
Island to be sold to the highest bidder.
This is an effort I have been working on since the day I entered Congress. 6
of my proposals to help protect the island have been passed by the House since
2015, including 1 that became law last year to suspend the sale for Fiscal Year
2020. Last year, I also secured $1.5 million to help restore Plum Island
Lighthouse.
Now, after six years of working on this issue, the federal law to sell the
island to the highest bidder will be reversed!
I would like to thank all of the amazing Plum Island advocates throughout NY-1
and the surrounding region, the Southold Town Board, and so many others for
their tireless efforts over the years to fight for this local treasure. Their
effort has been amazing. The better use of Plum Island would be for
conservation, public access, and a continued use of the research
infrastructure. I'd also like to thank Senator Schumer, because despite our
differences politically, this was a cause where working together to get this
done, especially the past couple of weeks, was the only acceptable path forward
for both of us.

First Doses of the Coronavirus Vaccine Given Out Across the Country
<[link removed]>
The first doses of the coronavirus vaccine were given out this week across the
country. The rapid research, development, testing, production, approval and
deployment wouldn't have been possible if not for many inside of the federal
government and within the private sector, including the Trump Administration
and Operation Warp Speed.

Cuomo shuts back down indoor dining in NYC
<[link removed]>
Governor Cuomo has decided to shut back down indoor dining in NYC. It's going
to be a death blow to many of our great restaurants and their hard working
employees. This decision lacks common sense. Before he gets any more bad ideas,
this definitely should not be repeated here on Long Island!
