NYACK, NY – Senator Elijah Reichlin-Melnick has released the following statement:

“As Chair of the Senate Committee on Contracts and Procurements, I joined my colleagues, the Chairs of the Senate Committee on Investigations and Government Operations, the Committee on Transportation, and the Committee on Corporations, Authorities, and Commissions to issue a formal information request to Tappan Zee Constructors, LLC on Friday, April 23 regarding the recent revelations about possible safety concerns with the new Tappan Zee Bridge.

As we have promised our constituents, safety of residents and commuters is our number one priority. We must get to the bottom of this issue so that users of the new bridge can feel confident in the safety of the structure. I am thankful for the support from my colleagues in the Senate and from the NYS Thruway Authority as we investigate these serious allegations.”

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. 💙
