PEARL RIVER, NY – Assemblyman Mike Lawler announced today the granting of $25,000 in Assembly “bullet aid” to the Pearl River Public Library, to assist with their ongoing renovation efforts.

“I’m proud to stand here today in support of public libraries,” said Lawler. “It’s especially meaningful to me to provide my hometown library, the Pearl River Public Library, with a $25,000 grant in addition to the hundreds of millions in funding for public libraries that I supported in this year’s state budget.”

“Our public libraries are part of the lifeblood of our towns, villages, and hamlets, and I’m proud to be a strong supporter of them,” concluded Lawler.

“With this money, we will be able to not only continue our industry-leading educational and technology programs and events, but also expand our offerings to our Pearl River community. Especially now as we emerge from COVID, children, teens, adults and seniors need the Library as their community and educational center more than ever,” said Eugenia Schatoff, Executive Director of the Pearl River Public Library. “With the imminent catastrophic failure of our building, any monetary aid we receive will help us keep our doors open and our services running. The benefit to the community is beyond measure, and I’d like to express again how extremely grateful we are to Assemblyman Lawler for not only thinking of us but tirelessly working to secure these funds.”

The Blue Envelope Program is a vital initiative designed to improve interactions between law enforcement and drivers with autism spectrum disorder (ASD). Drivers with autism can store their license, registration, and insurance in a distinctive blue envelope, which serves as a discreet way to notify officers of their condition during traffic stops.
This program helps reduce misunderstandings, lowers anxiety, and fosters a more empathetic and safer environment for everyone. 💙
How to Get a Blue Envelope:
Reach out to autism advocacy organizations in your area or your local sheriff’s office to obtain one. Together, we can promote understanding and safety on the road!
