White Plains CitizeNetReporter - Matusow Supported by Democratic Gubernatorial Nominees

WPCNR NEWSREEL. From the Naomi Matusow Campaign. September 7, 2002: State Comptroller and Democratic gubernatorial candidate H. Carl McCall and his running mate Dennis Mehiel today endorsed Naomi Matusow in her bid for re-election to the State Assembly.

“Naomi Matusow’s record of looking out for our families and children is unsurpassed,” McCall said. “It takes a solid commitment and a lot of hard work to get the kind of results Naomi has. I look forward to continuing to work with Naomi to make New York a better place to live, work and raise a family.”

In particular, McCall noted Matusow, a former teacher, has a distinguished record of improving children's lives. Not only has she secured a record $20 million increase in aid for local schools during her tenure, Matusow authored historic legislation to protect children, including measures to ban assault weapons and require background check on school employees.

“New York needs more leaders like Naomi Matusow,” Mehiel said. “She's demonstrated strong leadership on the economy, and she understands what's necessary to get our state back on track and stay competitive with the rest of the country.”

“I'm honored to have this endorsement, which affirms all the hard work I'm putting into making Westchester County and New York State a better place for our families,” Matusow said. “Carl, Dennis and I share many of the same goals for our working families – providing a first-class education for all our children, creating good jobs, and making health care and prescription drugs more affordable. Working together, we can accomplish great things for New York.”
