Governor Kathy Hochul visited Monsey today for a roundtable event that brought together elected officials, community leaders, and askanim from across Rockland County.

The gathering provided an opportunity for local representatives to meet directly with the governor and discuss issues affecting the community. Elected officials, community leaders, and askanim participated in conversations focused on local concerns and priorities.

Among those who addressed the gathering were Askan Yehuda Leib Zorger, who served as the MC of the event, New Square Mayor Izzy Spitzer, State Assemblyman Aron Wieder, Democratic candidate for State Senate Joe Rand, Rockland County Legislator Itamar Yeger, Town of Ramapo Chief of Staff Monah Mantel, Rockland community buisness owner and activist Haskan Meyer Tzvi Tauber, and additional elected officials and community leaders.

The event was held at a Monsey venue and was organized as a roundtable discussion aimed at strengthening communication between state government and local communities. Attendees had the opportunity to share perspectives and engage in direct dialogue with the governor.

Hochul’s visit to Monsey came as she continues to meet with communities across New York State ahead of the upcoming gubernatorial election in November.
