Want to hear about some amazing progress we are making? Today, Senator John DeFrancisco sponsored a bill that has been introduced in the NY Senate! Senate Bill S7671! This is great progress! This is the news I told you to be looking out for! This bill will rename the bridge “The Governor Mario M. Cuomo Tappan Zee Bridge”. In this way, it’s a compromise that allows our bridge to keep its original name as part of its official name. In other words, if this bill passes, it will again be The Tappan Zee Bridge! Find below both the bill itself plus a news article about it. https://www.nysenate.gov//legislation/bills/2017/S7671 http://www.nystateofpolitics.com/2018/02/defran-bill-would-bring-back-the-tappan-zee-bridge-and-keep-cuomos-name/ The Albany Times Union will be interviewing me tomorrow’s morning to discuss the developments, and I’ll share that with you shortly too. I am assembling the SOTZ Boxes this week and sending our advertising materials out to those who made a purchase. We want to promote awareness of how much the Tappan Zee name means to us. That is our continuing mission. The introduction of this bill is great progress but we still need to show everyone that the TZ name MATTERS. How can you help?
