Dinowitz says the early work on the resolutions was done with students he mentored at Hunter College through the Grove Leadership Fellowship. He commends the CUNY students for drafting the resolutions as a civic project.

Eric Dinowitz

And I'm proud to say not only are these resolutions fantastic resolutions, but the early work on these resolutions was done with students I mentored at Hunter College, which is a CUNY school.

Eric Dinowitz

They run a wonderful program, the Grove Leadership Fellowship, and civic leaders work with two to four undergraduate students on civic projects.

Eric Dinowitz

And our civic project was elevating civic education in our schools.

Eric Dinowitz

And the path they took was drafting these resolutions.

Eric Dinowitz

So I want to commend those students and the work that was done by CUNY students.

Eric Dinowitz

So now those

resolutions are being heard by these two committees today.

Eric Dinowitz

And I think that's a powerful civics lesson for all the students who are here today and are watching at home.
