Speaker Menin explains vote - thanks finance team for tireless work
Speaker Menin discloses 92nd Street Y association. She votes aye on all and delivers extended thanks to the finance team, noting many have served through multiple speakers and mayors, and thanking her senior staff by name.
Speaker amended.
I'd like to disclose on the record that the 92nd Street Y is funded in the budget we are adopting, and my child is associated with that entity.
I vote aye on all, and I know I did a lot of thank yous this morning in the budget handshake and earlier today in my speech, but...
Once again, thank you to the hardworking finance team.
You've gotten such little sleep.
And we would not be at this moment without you.
And I think it really bears noting that, you know, our finance team, so many of them have been here for many, many years.
They work through multiple speakers, multiple mayors.
It's not about who the speaker is, who the mayor is.
It is about the work of helping New Yorkers.
And we owe you a debt of gratitude for everything you've done.
And once again, thank you to my whole team who has just been tremendous.
Miguelina, Jonathan, Simone, John, Bob, our whole comms team, Henry, Jack.
Yoav, who've literally worked, I mean, they've been helping all of the members.
I just,
I really can't thank them all enough.
We so deeply appreciate the amazing work that you have done.
So thank you.
