Maloney Releases End of Year Report

Washington, D.C. – Rep. Sean Patrick Maloney (NY-18) released his 2013 Year End Annual Report, which highlights his legislative work, constituent services, district events, and correspondence.

 

“Despite dysfunction and gridlock in Washington, I’m proud of the results we have achieved for my neighbors in the Hudson Valley like helping veterans receive their earned compensation, delivering Social Security checks back to Hudson Valley seniors, and assisting homeowners and businesses with disaster aid following the destruction of Irene, Sandy and Lee,” said Rep. Sean Patrick Maloney. “By listening to the priorities of my neighbors, I have authored and passed legislation in the House that has a real impact on families in the Hudson Valley on issues like dam safety, reducing the veterans’ disability backlog, and helping our farmers get the insurance they need when they’re hit with disasters.”
