The fight to recognize Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. Day serves as an important reminder that change never comes easily, and progress itself is often contested. Although we’ve made tremendous gains in the fight that Dr. King championed, we must always remember that immortal saying: The past is never dead. It isn’t even past. May we all embody Dr. King's courage to continue fighting for what’s right over what’s popular, as we build towards a more perfect New York, and union. - Majority Leader Andrea Stewart-Cousins
