Congressman Gottheimer s remarks as prepared for delivery are below.
We’re feet from the George Washington Bridge, where, on a normal pre-pandemic day, 289,000 people drive in and out of Manhattan from Bergen County and from all across our state.
Many of them are our constituents, a diverse and talented workforce, who work in New York, and, soon enough, if they haven’t already, most will start driving in again to support their families and help boost a 100-million-dollar-a-day regional economy, including 8% percent of our nation’s GDP. Others, as we continue to reopen, will head in at night or over the weekends to grab dinner, go shopping, or spend a day with family and friends.

Stewart Airport doesn t see the type of traffic its New York City counterparts do. With fewer options available, some travelers may choose to fly out of JFK or LaGuardia airports. I have flown out of here multiple times and I m not going to lie, a lot of times, even before COVID hit, it was like a dead zone, Newburgh resident Brittany Robinson said. I think it s underutilized and we ve spent a lot of money in the last few years renovating, changing the place, and (there s) less routes, less airlines in the place, said Newburgh resident Michael Vela.

interview with the Times Union, the woman, who is not named but remains employed in the governor’s office, said the Cuomo closed the door and began touching her after summoning her to the mansion for help with an iPhone, grasping one of her breasts through her bra.
