Speaker Menin recognizes birthdays and World Cup excitement
Menin wishes early birthdays to Council Members Justin Sanchez (July 17), Elsie Encarnación (July 19), and Rita Joseph and Tiffany Cabán (July 24). She also notes excitement for the Spain-Argentina World Cup final at MetLife Stadium and the colorful international visitors across the five boroughs.
On a sweeter note, there are a few things to look forward to.
I want to first of all wish a very happy early birthday to Councilmember Justin Sanchez.
His birthday is July 17th.
Tomorrow.
Yeah, tomorrow.
A happy early birthday to Deputy Whip Elsie Encarnación.
Her birthday is on the 19th, so in a couple days.
To Council Members Rita Joseph and Tiffany Cabán, whose birthday is on July 24th.
So happy, happy birthday.
This Sunday, I think we're all going to be excitedly watching as Spain and Argentina face off in the World Cup finals right across the river at MetLife Stadium.
Over the past few weeks, we've been proud to continue the long practice of welcoming visitors from all across the world to our great city, seeing their colorful jerseys, hearing the mix of languages all across the five boroughs.
So that has been just so incredibly exciting to see.
