Weisenberg gives library $25K, PBA $5K
LONG BEACH HERALD — January 27, 2022
By Brendan Carpenter bcarpenter@liherald.com
On the first floor of the Long Beach Public Library, around the corner from the front desk and by the bookshelves, there’s a banner: “Harvey Weisenberg: A lifetime of sand, sea and service.” Harvey Weisenberg, a lifeguard and former state assemblyman, has spent the past 68 years serving the city. He honored by the library last year for his years of public service, Weisneberg, 88, along with his late wife Ellen, donated $25,000 to the library in hopes to help support the preservation of the city’s history on Saturday, Jan. 22. The donation will help the library build a new local history room during its renovation of the first floor. The new room will include books, clippings, oral recordings, vintage postcards, yearbooks and newspapers. Gemma Tansey, president of the Long Beach Public Library Board of Trustees, said the history is important to maintain. “Long Beach Public Library is deeply grateful to Harvey for his support and generosity,” Tansey said in a statement. “Reserving local history connects us with our past, helps inform our present and inspires us to actively shape our future.” Weisenberg said he “put a lot of time” in Long Beach and wants the library to help people “know who we are as a city.” He said giving back is his mission in life, and that this time he really wants residents to feel lucky about living here. “God gave me an angel, a saint and a mission,” Weisenberg said. “My angel is my child, my saint is my wife and my mission is helping people.” He was referring to his wife, Ellen, who died in 2016 at age 81, and to his son, Rickey, who has cerebral palsy.

Harvey WeisenBerg, 88, was presented with a plaque from the Long Beach PBA after donating $5,000. Weisenberg continued this mission Monday when he gathered with the Long Beach PBA in the library, right in front of his banner. They all gathered to recognize another donation; this one was of $5,000 for the PBA. Being a former PBA president, Weinstein said he wanted to give a “thank you” to the officers. Cuurent PBA President Mike Corbett, who grew up in the West End but now lives in Lido, said the donation was
“generous” and reaffirmed what they already knew about Weisenberg. “It’s huge, we always knew Harvey was our biggest backer,” said Corbett. “He has never forgotten where he came from. He always supports law enforcement, it’s kind of like his mission.” The PBA presented Weisenberg with a new plaque as a way to thank him for his donation.
mssn poll:
Federal gov’t falls down on Covid testing By tom Carrozza tcarrozza@liherald.com
According to a new poll from Mount Sinai South Nassau in Oceanside, more than 80 percent of metropolitan area residents say government should be doing more to make Covid-19 testing readily available to the public. The hospital’s latest “Truth in Medicine Poll,” released last Thursday, illustrated people’s frustrations with both the federal and state governments’ testing systems. Fifty-seven percent of respondents hold the federal government accountable for lack of available testing, with 15 percent blaming state government. Nationally recognized, independent polling firm LJR Custom Strategies, based out of Washington, D.C. and New Orleans, called 600 residents in New York City and Long Island on landlines and cell phones. The poll was conducted from Jan. 4 to 9, before the federal government’s recent effort to make free test kits available for every household in the country. “The lack of available testing has been an Achilles’ heel of the Covid-19 response since day one of the pandemic,” MSSN President Dr. Adhi Sharma said. “More testing enables those who suspect they may have been exposed to get information, stay home if they have a positive result and help stop the spread to others.”

The poll included several other distressing details and pessimism among respondents, hospital officials aid. For one, 63 percent of respondents believe the pandemic will last at least another year. Forty-three percent of those polled say they have put off routine well visits, including their annual physical, dental or eye exams, mammograms or blood pressure screenings. “During the past two years, we repeatedly have seen patients come to the hospital with more advanced disease that might have been prevented had it been caught and treated earlier,” Sharma said. While 79 percent of adult respondents say they have received at least one dose of the vaccine, and about one-half of those vaccinated have received a booster, those who are unvaccinated remain hesitant to take the jab. The vaccination rate remained similar to the previous poll released last August. “We still have more work to do to educate why people should receive a booster vaccine and to get their children vaccinated,” said Dr. Aaron Glatt, MSSN’s chairman of medicine and chief of infectious diseases. “Vaccination is the way out of this pandemic.” Dana Sanneman, MSSN’s vice president of public affairs, announced that according to the poll, nearly 90 percent of respondents over age 65 have been vaccinated. Mean-

while, 68 percent in the 18-to-34 demographic in the poll reported being vaccinated. Eighty percent of poll respondents strongly support offering newly emerging antiviral pills and medicines to all patients with Covid-19 and not prioritizing them for the unvaccinated, as some health officials have urged. Eighty percent of unvaccinated respondents agreed that antibody treatments and antiviral medicines should be available to all people. “Prioritizing medicine or care for groups or subsets of people when resources are limited is a highly complex issue and will be dependent on many variables,

including potentially biological differences based upon genetic factors,” Glatt said. “But racial and ethnic characteristics of patients should not be the primary determinant, unless it is something that directly impacts the care that is required.” The Truth in Medicine Poll serves Mount Sinai’s mission to improve education around critical public health issues. The poll was the 12th in the Truth in Medicine series, dating back to the 2017. Before the pandemic, the polls measured concerns such as holiday stress, legalization of recreational marijuana, and antibiotic use and misuse.
Council likes meters, but issue is the cost THE CiTy is looking for the best way to pay for a massive parking meter system to ease congtestion and raise revenue.
By JAmEs BErNsTEiN jbernsten@liherald.com
Long Beach city council members are keenly interested in having parking meters installed in the central business district to help open spaces and raise revenue. But the problem, is, as always in Long Beach, how to pay for it? That was the key, and unanswered question, at a Jan. 20 working session of the council, which heard a lengthy presentation on parking meters from Flowbird, DONNA GAyDEN the world’s largest parking soluCity Manager tions company whose website says it operates in over 5,000 cities and 70 countries using the cloud to manage complex technology that eases parking issues and helps municipalities raise money. The company has meter operations in Nassau County, including in East Rockaway, Lawrence, Lynbrook and Rockville Center. The current plan the city is looking at calls for the installation of 1,350 parking meters between Lafayette and Monroe boulevards and 35 meter kiosks.

There would be transient parking, in effect all days between 9 am and 11 pm on a first come – first served basis. And permit parking, which would be n effect all days, between 9 am and 1 pm. The permits would be digital in nature. Long Beach residents would be eligible for 50 percent at parking meters by registering their cars in the parking system.

City officials say parking is worth hundreds of thousands of dollars to store owners, who lose business when potential customers can’t find spaces. Long Beach police commissioner Ron Walsh said that currently, the city has “a disjointed” system for parking and enforcement and would welcome a unified parking program. But council members wanted to hear about the finances of such a parking system. “A this point, I know noting about the finances,” said Roy Lester, who was elected in November. He noted city comptroller Inna Reznik had said Long Beach could reap significant revenues from the meters. “Anybody would be happy about that,” Lester said. “But is it realistic? We’ll have to wait and see.” Reznik said the financials surrounding the parking meter poposal were “complex” and that a separate meeting was need to discuss them. City spokesman John McNally said the council is in the process of planning such a meeting, and that residents would be able to voice their opinons.

tor vehicles. There would also be 10 invehicle laptops and ticket writers. The plan outlines three payment options: lease to buy; the company could finance the program, or the city could take on new debt through bonding. “We know how important this project is to you,” said Sean Renn, Flowbird’s vice president of communication and marking, at the work session. “This project will be very visible and we will want to make sure it goes very well.” The city has had a checkered history with parking meters. Some were installed in the downtown area in the 195os, but they were removed in the 1970s after, some long-time residents said, money kept disappearing. Parking meters were installed at the train station in 2004. City officials say Long Beach is some $500,000 in debt, and desperately needs ways of raising revenue without increasing taxes. The meters would be one way. “This benefits the business community and brings in economic development,” said City Manager Donna Gayden, at the work session. “This would be a dramatic change for the city.”

Demand for expedited dredging of Inlet

LONG BEACH HERALD — January 27, 2022
By James Bernstein jbernstein@liherald.com
Two years after two boaters were killed in shallow waters in Jones Inlet, the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers has still not dredged the area, and several New York lawmakers have demanded the agency expedite its work before the summer season. Back in May, 2020, State Sen. Todd Kaminsky, a Long Beach Democrat, wrote to Lt. Gen. Todd T. Semonite of the Corps, stressing “the near impossibility to navigate the inlet under certain weather conditions.” Kaminsky’s letter came shortly after a man identified as John Costa was killed when his boat overturned in rough waters in the Inlet, off Point Lookout. The body of Joseph Sparacio, a pssenger on the same boat, was later found in Breezy Point, in the Rockaway Peninsula in Queens. In an interview earlier this week, Kaminsky said the Inlet is supposed to be dredged every six years, and was last dredged in 2014. “That’s why the situation is this way,” he said. “I think the Army Corps of Engineers hasn’t prioritized this.” Last week, New York’s two Senators, Chuck Schumer and Kirsten Gillibrand, and U.S. Rep. Kathleen Rice of Garden City, urged in another letter to the Corps that the agency “immediately undertake all appropriate measures necessary to

a Boater skiffs across Jones Beach Inlet, which federal legilators say is in need of dredging by the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers. dredge Jones Inlet on the South Shore of Long Island before summer 2022.” The three said in their letter that the Inl;et’s waters are “dangerously shallow.” They said that the South Shore is home to approximately 32,000 registered boaters, 20 large commercial party boas and eight commercial trawlers. “Over the past few years, they have experienced increasingly shallow conditions in Jones Inlet, sometimes reaching
depths of only three feet,” their letter said. “During periods of low tide, storms or heavy winds can quickly create deadly waves capable of curling and capsizing any boat.” They referred to the May 2020 boating accident and said, “It is our understanding that sailing conditions in the Inlet have significantly deteriorated in recent months, presenting even greater risk to boaters. We cannot allow a similar accident to happen
ever again.” “Given the anticipated commercial and recreational maritime traffic later this year that willrely on a safe and navigable federal channel, it is imperative that (Army Crops) utilize every resource and exhaust every option to overcome regulations preventing the dredging of Jones Inlet before summer 2022,” the letter said. The Army Corps of Engineers did not respond for comments by press time.

Timeless values, visible results
he week is set aside to promote the unique nature of the Catholic schools in each community. Schools typically observe the annual celebration week with Masses and open houses to thank parishioners, to welcome visitors and to introduce new families to the benefits of a Catholic education. It frequently kicks off with a Mass and open house on the first Sunday (Jan. 30), and a series of events designed to recognize the contributions of students, parents and faculty during the course of the week. Many schools offer additional open houses and opportunities to visit during the week as well. Through these events, schools focus on the value Catholic education provides to young people and its contributions to our church, our communities and our nation. In addition to the internal events (teacher and parent recognition events, school ‘spirit’ days, special assemblies, etc) it is also a week where the schools open their doors to the families of their Parish/Parishes they serve, and to the general public who might be considering the benefits of a Catholic education. As a family considering a Catholic education, how do I learn more? Catholic Schools Week features Open Houses at the schools where parents and students can visit the school(s) they think they might be interested in and get a tour of the facility, be introduced to the teachers, meet some of the current families and children and generally learn about the academic, spiritual, social and physical development programs.
The benefits of a Catholic education As a prospective family, do I have an ‘assigned school’? One of the first differences you will notice about Catholic school is that you get to select the school that you believe your children will be most successful in. There is no direct ‘assignment’ based on where you live and most school districts provide busing to the school of your choice within a 15-mile radius. Is there a difference in tuition to attend a different school? Long Island’s Catholic Elementary schools set their own tuitions, so they vary slightly, but there is no penalty for choosing a school outside of your Parish or town if you are a parishioner in the Diocese. The system of schools is an asset here on Long Island for all of the families of the Diocese and for all of the families of Long Island What should parents look for during their visit? Many parents of current students tell us that their decision was emotional and based on a feeling of warmth and caring they got during their visit. Others are more analytical and make direct comparisons based on the results on standardized test scores and high school admittance history. Regardless of how you make your decision, the schools are
‘open books’ during this week, providing whatever information prospective families desire to support their decision. When parents select Catholic elementary school, what are the most frequently cited reasons? The reasons that are most frequently mentioned are: academic excellence, the reinforcement of the values lived at home, Catholic religious identity, a safe, nurturing environment for learning, more individualized attention to each student’s learning needs, an outstanding extracurricular program and the level of partnership established with parents. `Will attending Catholic elementary schools help my child get into a prestigious Catholic high school? Attending a Catholic elementary school isn’t the only way to get into a Catholic high school, but it is still the best way. The Catholic high schools are open to all students and typically have a very significant number of students from a public school background. Students qualify for Catholic high school through a test for 8th graders that is administered in October of
Catholic Schools Week is upon us — Jan. 30-Feb. 5 — with the goal of raising the awareness of Catholic schools as an outstanding educational option.
each year. Typically the students from Catholic elementary schools are best prepared for the academic rigor, the integrated program of faith and values, and the service orientation of the high schools. Virtually all of the students from Catholic elementary school (99 percent) are admitted to a Catholic high school with the vast majority getting into the school that is their first choice. You can learn more about the high school entrance exam, and about the Catholic High Schools at http://chsee.org. Are non-Catholics welcome in the schools? The schools are welcoming places to everyone without regard to race, religion or national origin. A religion class is a requirement, students participate in Liturgies, and faith is an integrated part of daily activities, but many schools have a significant population of students who attend because of the quality of the education alone. How can I learn more or choose the school(s) I would like to visit? There is a resource for families on the Internet that provides a very complete picture of the Catholic elementary school experience. It features an interactive map that is your guide to each of Long island’s distinctive Catholic schools, and that lets you view the geographic options for your children at http://licatholicelementaryschools.org. Above photo: In this unique community environment, children are surrounded by other children, families and a parish that serve to reinforce moral values and beliefs.

LONG BEACH HERALD — January 27, 2022
Students excel today and gain the confidence to succeed all their lives Long Island Catholic schools provide the academic rigor and study regimen, moral and spiritual instruction, along with all the extracurricular programs that nurture and set the foundation for the future success. By receiving this complete education in an inspiring environment, children gain the knowledge, skills, and self-esteem that prepare them for a life of personal and professional achievement.
(Public – 31.1 percent; Catholic 61.9 percent).
Demonstrated student success Various objective standards illustrate the advantages of a Catholic school education.

Some parents were upset and wanted the city to take it back over.” Moser posted a letter to a parents’ Facebook page after speaking with Kleinman, noting some of the topics that they discussed. She said the conversation was “very positive,” and she believes the JCC wants to “get it right.” Moser wrote about her previous concerns with the staff, saying that she learned the new staff brought in have experience in childcare and have received additional training and will receive more in the future. She also said, “Ms. Klienman said this has helped her to see how abrupt this transition was for us and was empathetic towards how we felt, losing people who have cared for our babies since they were in pre-K.” Kleinman said the JCC has run “quality programs for over 30 years” and has not had such a “rocky start” as has been the case in Long Beach. She said she hopes that after conversations and open communication with families, the JCC can “regain their trust.”

The battle for the Nassau Conference 2B wrestling title came down to a showdown between Long Beach and MacArthur on Jan. 11 and was deadlocked heading into the final weight class. A pin in the second period by MacArthur’s 285-pounder Matthew Clarkson gave the Generals a 32-26 victory and the crown, but the Marines, down three starters, left it all on the mat, coach Ray Adams said. “MacArthur is very strong in the upper weights and we left some points all over the board,” Adams said. “I’m proud of how every kid battled and they responded to the loss to win two playoff matches.” Long Beach won 6 of 13 bouts against MacArthur and built a 26-17 lead before dropping each of the final three scraps. Eighth-grader Dunia Sibomana and senior Mason Franklin got things going early with a pin and major decision, respectively, at 102 and 110. Both will go at 102 in the county qualifier tournament hosted by the Marines next weekend. “They’re both having big seasons,” Adams said. “Mason hasn’t lost to anyone at 102 and Dunia’s only two losses are to Mason. They’re both capable of going very far in the county tournament.” After MacArthur’s Jonathon Fox took the 118-pound tilt, Long Beach rebounded with two more victories as Michael Berube won a tough 12-8 decision at 126 and Greg Milone dominated at 132. Adams bumped county title contender at 126, Wyatt Parker, up several weights where he fell to Generals’ standout and D1 recruit Killian Foy at 138. Yehuda Bitton (160) and Luke Anfossi (172) both won major decisions to put the pressure on MacArthur. “It was a great high school wrestling match,” Adams said. “Of course, we would’ve liked to finish it off. But we have to give credit where credit is due.” The Marines returned to action nine days later and defeated Division, 47-12, and Calhoun, 39-24, in the dual meet play-

The Calhoun match began at 152 and Davila Oscar delivered a major decision win to get Long Beach out of the gate in positive fashion. After losing the next three, John Miller (215) and Ben Shapiro (285) had momentum-altering wins. “Miller got a late pin and it really ignited us,” Adams said. “Then Shapiro followed with an upset win in overtime and kept everyone fired up.” Eight other teams — Hewlett, Freeport, Oceanside, South Side, Roslyn, Valley Stream North, Lawrence and Hempstead — will head to Long Beach on Feb. 5
for one of Nassau’s five qualifier tournaments. Adams says he’s hopeful at least 15 Marines advance to the county’s big stage Feb. 12-13 at Nassau Community College. The top five finishers in each weight class in each qualifier will move on. “It’s going to be a competitive qualifier,” Adams said. “That’s how they’re set up to be.” In the latest rankings, posted Jan. 16, Parker is No. 2 behind Hewlett’s Ariel Waldmann, Franklin and Sibomana are third and fourth at 102, and Hector Morrobel is sixth at 152.

Dated: January 12, 2022 THE NASSAU COUNTY TREASURER Mineola, NewYork ___________________ TERMS OF SALE Such tax liens shall be sold subject to any and all superior tax liens of sovereignties and other municipalities and to all claims of record which the County may have thereon and subject to the provisions of the Federal and State Soldiers’ and Sailors’ Civil Relief Acts. However, such tax liens shall have priority over the County’s Differential Interest Lien, representing the excess, if any, of the interest and penalty borne at the maximum rate over the interest and penalty borne at the rate at which the lien is purchased. The Purchaser acknowledges that the tax lien(s) sold pursuant to these Terms of Sale may be subject to pending bankruptcy proceedings and/or may become subject to such proceedings which may be commenced during the period in which a tax lien is held by a successful bidder or the assignee of same, which may modify a Purchaser’s rights with respect to the lien(s) and the property securing same. Such bankruptcy proceedings shall not affect the validity of the tax lien. In addition to being subject to pending bankruptcy proceedings and/or the Federal and State Soldiers’ and Sailors’ Civil Relief Acts, said purchaser’s right of foreclosure may be affected by the Financial Institutions Reform, Recovery and Enforcement Act(FIRREA),12 U.S.C. ss 1811 et.seq., with regard to real property under Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation(FDIC) receivership. The County Treasurer reserves the right, without further notice and at any time, to withdraw from sale any of the parcels of land or premises herein listed. The Nassau County Treasurer reserves the right to intervene in any bankruptcy case/litigation where the property affected by the tax liens sold by the Treasurer is part of the bankruptcy estate. However, it is the sole responsibility of all tax lien purchasers to protect their legal
interests in any bankruptcy case affecting their purchased tax lien, including but not limited to the filing of a proof of claim on their behalf, covering their investment in said tax lien. The Nassau County Treasurer and Nassau County and its agencies, assumes no responsibility for any legal representation of any tax lien purchaser in any legal proceeding including but not limited to a bankruptcy case where the purchased tax lien is at risk. The rate of interest and penalty at which any person purchases the tax lien shall be established by his bid. Each purchaser, immediately after the sale thereof, shall pay to the County Treasurer ten per cent of the amount for which the tax liens have been sold and the remaining ninety per cent within thirty days after such sale. If the purchaser at the tax sale shall fail to pay the remaining ninety per cent within ten days after he has been notified by the County Treasurer that the certificates of sale are ready for delivery, then all amounts deposited with the County Treasurer including but not limited to the ten per cent theretofore paid by him shall, without further notice or demand, be irrevocably forfeited by the purchaser and shall be retained by the County Treasurer as liquidated damages and the agreement to purchase shall be of no further effect. Time is of the essence in this sale. This sale is held pursuant to the Nassau County Administrative Code and interested parties are referred to such Code for additional information as to terms of the sale, rights of purchasers, maximum rates of interest and other legal incidents of the sale. Furthermore, as to the bidding, 1. The bidder(s) agree that they will not work with any other bidder(s) to increase, maintain or stabilize interest rates or collaborate with any other bidder(s) to gain an unfair competitive advantage in the random number generator in the event of a tie bid(s) on a tax certificate.

Staying safe in strong winds
January 27, 2022 — LONG BEACH HERALD
Grand Colonial on Magnificent Property
G
Q. We are thinking about how to make our house safer from high winds. It’s old and creaks when we get wind gusts. I looked online at safe rooms, and they’re a lot of work and cost. Is there a cheaper way to make a room — at least one room — safe to go to if we have a tornado, and can we make our house less creaky when windstorms blow?
racious center hall colonial featuring 6 bedrooms and 3.5 baths in the tree street area of Woodmere. This well maintained home has a living room with fireplace, formal dining room, family room and spacious granite/wood kosher eat in kitchen. There are hardwood floors through-out and crown moldings throughout and a full basement. It has over 1/4 acre park-like property plus a 2 car detached garage .Convenient location to shops, LIRR and houses of worship. SD#15.

A. My childhood was spent between elementary school in Orlando, Fla., where we regularly had hurricane days off from school, and then middle and high school in Toledo, Ohio, where a tornado actually hit our home when I was 12. Forty-three people were killed in that July 4th storm, while our family of six huddled in the southwest corner of onte eeper our basement, the place we ran to every time the alarms sounded. Getting to a basement at the closest point to the direction the wind is coming from allows the house to blow over and away from you. We were lucky to live in an area where it was understood that you had to have a basement. While I was producing and directing a documentary aptly titled “Hell or High Water” in 2013, I interviewed several survivors and officials in Moore, Okla., the scene of the highest winds ever recorded in a tornado in the U.S. The homeowners I spoke with described how there was no time to run, and they had no basements. At their building department, I met with the commissioner, who explained that the soil there is red clay, and so expansive when it’s wet that it would push basement walls inward. I told him I didn’t buy that excuse, because there are ways to buffer expansive soil with loose gravel in a cage-like perimeter that improves drainage around the whole foundation in addition to allowing for basement foundations. I also pointed out that the brand new homes still under construction across the road from the neighborhood where the tornado touched down had no reinforcement attaching the roof to the walls or the walls to the foundation. They were also using particleboard instead of stronger plywood, especially to reinforce outside corners. The commissioner looked at me sheepishly and said that most people there couldn’t afford it. I noted that eight third-graders had just died outside their classroom. Was the lack of code-required connectors really worth it? I was elated that since we spoke on camera, with their permission to film, I might have had something to do with the announcement, in 2014 that Moore now led the nation as the first building department to require specific tornado-proofing methods, including the steel frame connectors for openings and wall and roof connections I mentioned. If you can’t get to a low, reinforced room below ground level, the best thing to do is strengthen an area next to the masonry chimney. More on safe rooms in the next column. Stay tuned.

efore I started working for the Heralds last year, a coworker raped me at a previous job. I didn’t immediately report it to police. I didn’t tell my family in Puerto Rico, or my then husband. I didn’t keep the torn dress or the photos of the bruises. With only 31 percent of rapes reported to police, according to the Rape, Abuse, Incest National Network, we need to empower rape victims to seek justice in a system that they believe is fair and equitable — and one in which they feel Cristina arroYo safe and supported. Under the current roDriGUeZ system, though, for every 1,000 sexual assaults that are reported, only 25 perpetrators will be incarcerated, according to RAINN. My story is not a 0.025 percent story. Six months after I was raped, I received a screenshot from a different coworker in which my rapist mentioned me by name, saying he hadn’t raped me, that it was consensual. He also mentioned two other women, as if listing membership in a club one out of five women join against their will. I reached out to the women. One answered. She said he had bought her
drinks, and she awoke the next morning, unable to remember the night before, to a text from him that read, “Thanks for sex, hope you remember.” That was when I decided to call the police. Late one night, four male officers came to my home to write a report. I told them about the man who raped me and the other woman, that he had admitted two weeks after the incident that he raped me, and that I suspected he might have done the same to others, based on this woman’s report and the text he sent her. The police dismissed my rape allegation as “sex,” asking, When did he have sex with you? Did anybody else witness you having sex? Had you had sex before with him? Finally, they offered me a counseling services number. A few weeks later, I met with a specialcrimes detective for three interviews. I shared texts and named witnesses to the crime. The detective tried to contact my rapist but could not. I was offered counseling services pamphlets. Not only did I relieve the trauma, but I also had to endure victim blaming, with police saying, “Maybe you agreed, but you don’t remember?” “Are you sure you weren’t in a relationship with him?” “You both made bad decisions that night.” “You should talk to someone — RAINN offers

t
great counseling services.” The detective interviewed witnesses who had told me they saw what happened, but no one would admit to authorities that they had seen anything. A year and half later, after I had quit my job because I didn’t want to run into my rapist, he posted on social media that he had exacted revenge on me, calling me a terrible person and himself a “genius.” I immediately went to the police. They said they could do nothing, because my rapist was never arrested and the harassment wasn’t chronic. I tried to get a restraining order but couldn’t, because he wasn’t related to me or my live-in boyfriend. Police said I should’ve reported the rape when it happened, and again referred me to counseling. Now my rapist still works in the same place. I walk with my keys between my fingers toward my car, and check the back seat. I pretend to be on my phone when I walk alone at night, having 911 pre-dialed. And I keep an aluminum bat nearby at home. For rape victims, no amount of therapy offers the healing that justice can. Our justice system and social institutions are fraught, however, with puritanical misbeliefs about female sexuality — the woman is almost always to blame — and a history
o hold rapists accountable, stop asking victims why they waited to report.
of categorizing women as property, both of which fuel rape. New York made some progress in 2020 when the Democratically controlled State Senate passed a bill to prohibit a rape suspect from using an alleged victim’s intoxication as a defense in court. But the measure failed to pass the Assembly, also controlled by Democrats, signaling to women that our Legislature, dominated by men, cannot protect us. Want to hold rapists accountable? Stop asking their victims why they waited to report. Instead, call out men when they objectify women; advocate for greater female representation in formal and informal organizations, especially in leadership; unionize for living wages and worklife balance; and vote for elected leaders that will support women’s autonomy. Victims cannot trust systems that fail them, at best, and retraumatize them, at worst. Once women gain a degree of financial and workplace autonomy and equitable systemic power, particularly in government, our institutions will change. Then, we hope, our criminal justice system will become a safe place for women to come forward. Cristina Arroyo Rodriguez is editor of the Baldwin Herald. She has also lectured in psychology at Baruch College and Bronx Community College in the City University of New York, and has taught Master Executive classes for NYPD leadership at John Jay College.
Framework by Christina Daly
Despite the high number of pregnancy and childbirth complications, Centers for Disease Control and Prevention studies have found that two out of three of all reported deaths were preventable. I am also urging my congressional colleagues to continue funding for several maternal health priorities, including at least $30 million to support uniform data collection on individual maternal deaths, $15 million for the Alliance for Innovation on Maternal Health program, $5 million for the Maternal Mental Health Hotline and $10 million to train health care providers to screen, assess and provide specialized care to treat maternal mental health conditions. I support the Black Maternal Health Momnibus Act of 2021, which includes my bill, the Moms Matter Act. And I support a host of bills to reduce racial disparities in maternal health, including the Maternal CARE Act, the MOMS Act and Sen. Cory Booker’s MOMMIES Act. I also co-led the TRICARE Coverage for Doula Support Act in 2020, which helped initiate a pilot program for TRICARE beneficiaries to receive coverage for doula fees in 2021.

N.Y. reaps benefits of federal infrastructure bill
s
peaking last Friday in Woodbury before the Long Island Association, Gov. Kathy Hochul devoted much of her speech, delivered with characteristically biting humor, to touting the array of projects now in the planning stages that were made possible by the Biden administration’s signature achievement to date, the $1 trillion Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act. The measure, passed late last year, will mean tens of billions of dollars for infrastructure improvement across New York state, including here on Long Island. For starters, Hochul said, New York will invest $1 billion in short order to fix potholes on our state thoroughfares. Potholes, she noted, cost New Yorkers an average of $635 a year in
repairs. “I have a personal experience with every single pothole,” the governor remarked, half-jokingly. The infrastructure bill will also provide $32.8 billion to repair and restructure New York’s crumbling roads and bridges, including $103.4 million for Nassau County. New York will receive $9.8 billion to modernize public transportation systems, making them cleaner and more efficient. Long Island MacArthur Airport in Ronkonkoma, for example, will receive $40 million to improve and further develop terminals, improving the flight experience of many Long Islanders there. some $500 million will go to develop sustainable offshore wind farms in the Atlantic ocean, providing clean energy for New Yorkers for generations to come and helping to protect Earth
against climate change. The wind farms will also mean hundreds, even thousands, of high-paying, high-tech jobs for Long Islanders. And New York is set to receive $175 million to build out a network of electric-vehicle charging stations across the state, reducing or eliminating gasoline costs for those with electric cars and helping to fight climate change. We could go on and on. The federal investment in New York transportation and electric systems will reap benefits for years, even decades, to come. The Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act tells us, in no uncertain terms, that good things happen when Democrats and Republicans work together. We, the people, expect — demand — more such examples of bipartisanship in Congress.

‘Uninformed’ is too strong a word To the Editor: Re Dr. Michael Ludwig’s letter to the editor, “Blakeman’s decision is ‘misguided’” (Jan. 13-19): Dr. Ludwig’s unhappiness with the way the race for Nassau County executive went last November is apparent, with name-calling. Two dozen “blue” cities have defied federal law over enforcement of immigration laws, so let’s not be naive. In his letter, Ludwig comes off like Hillary Clinton when she referred to conservatives as “deplorables.” “Uninformed” is a strong grade to apply to anyone who isn’t a liberal. I’m not disappointed by such daily attacks. People should, however, use their brains before they engage their mouths. We are Americans with some slightly different views. The ballot box is the field of honor. We should not defame one another. RoBERT F. CAsALE Glen Head
Time to fund maternal care To the Editor: I stand with Dr. Martine Hackett, of Birth Justice Warriors, a Hofstra University professor, and Dr. Tarika James, chief medical
officer of Long Island Federally Qualified Health Centers, to call for a major funding increase to address the nation’s maternal mortality crisis among Black women and eliminate racial bias in maternal care. Ahead of final negotiations for the fiscal year 2022 appropriations package, I am calling on House and senate Appropriations Committee leaders to include $7 million to fund evidence-based training programs to reduce implicit bias in maternal health and $25 million to establish a program that delivers integrated health care services to pregnant
women and new mothers that can reduce the disproportionate rate of maternal deaths among Black non-Hispanic women and adverse maternal health outcomes. The United states continues to have the highest rate of maternal mortality in the developed world, driven in large part by the high mortality rates among Black mothers. The overall maternal mortality rate in New York state is 10 percent higher than the national average. These risks have only grown over the past year, as Covid-19 presents additional risks for pregnant women and their babies.

s a former state official, I get many questions from readers, clients and friends about our political leaders. Lately, the most frequent one is, what do I think of Gov. Kathy Hochul? The short answer is I think she’s great, but there’s more to it, based on the fact that I’ve been following state politics for almost 66 years. Governors come and go, and many of them attract little or no attention. I have seen a lot of governors, from afar and up close. My first sighting was in 1959, when JERRY W. Averell Harriman attended a KREMER Democratic cocktail party in Lido Beach. While finishing law school, I was working as a part-time reporter for a weekly newspaper, and met Governor Harriman for a brief interview. He was a tall, patrician figure who held many government posts before becoming the state’s 48th governor, but he attracted little attention from the public. Nelson Rockefeller succeeded Harriman. Rockefeller was a man of many tal-
E
ents, and like Harriman, was the son of a billionaire. In his time he was a political rock star, and he brought a great deal of attention to the position. He built the Albany government complex, and spent your money like it was his. I met him frequently as a new state legislator and he had that rare quality known as gravitas. His successor, Malcolm Wilson, served for only a few months after Rockefeller resigned before losing to former Congressman Hugh Carey. Carey was a jovial and highly competent public servant who successfully took on many challenging projects, while occasionally battling with his own Democratic Legislature. His Irish charm made him well known around the state for two terms in office. Carey was succeeded by Mario Cuomo. Cuomo was one of the state’s most liberal governors, which often put him at odds with the Legislature. He was known for his brilliant oratory, and he turned down the chance to run for president as well as membership on the U.S. Supreme Court. When I was chair of the Assembly Ways and Means Committee, we sometimes butted heads, but always stayed friends. Cuomo served three terms, but as is
S
the case with all long-tenured officials, the public eventually gets tired of you, and, seeking a fourth term, he lost to Republican George Pataki. Pataki never gained the notoriety of his predecessor, but he was known to be a hardworking official. During his time in office, he supervised the takeover of the Long Island Lighting Company and helped set up the Long Island Power Authority. Then, in the space of three years, New York had two new governors. In 2007, Eliot Spitzer came into office with a bold agenda, but personal issues drove him from power the following year, and Lt. Governor David Paterson succeeded him. A native Long Islander, Paterson was a bright, sharp-tongued elected official, but he failed to win his party’s nomination and he stepped aside for Andrew Cuomo. Unlike many of his predecessors, the younger Cuomo quickly became a wellknown figure. He attracted national attention last year, when the coronavirus pandemic gave him the opportunity to be a television star. Whether they are pro- or anti-Cuomo, fair-minded people will acknowledge that he became another
he has the support of the state’s power brokers bcause they like her style.
Robert Moses, completing major projects that no other governor would dare undertake. Last August, Cuomo resigned in disgrace and was succeeded by Hochul, his lieutenant governor and a seasoned western-New York political figure. She has swiftly embraced her new role as the state’s first woman governor. Her success to date is primarily due to the fact that she is experienced in handling people issues, both at a national and local level. She has attracted strong financial support from the state’s power brokers because they like her personal style. While few are counting, she has made over 75 appearances in downstate New York, and has displayed wit and charm while manifesting take-charge talents. Upstate New Yorkers are big supporters, because she acts and talks like one of them. There is no doubt in my mind, based on all the governors in my life, that she is the right person for the job at the right time. Jerry Kremer was a state assemblyman for 23 years, and chaired the Assembly’s Ways and Means Committee for 12 years. He now heads Empire Government Strategies, a business development and legislative strategy firm. Comments about this column? JKremer@liherald.com.
Greatest hits from this month’s read-a-thon
very book ever written is about the pandemic — at least that’s what I’m discovering after trying to escape the here and now through fiction. Honestly, I could read “Dick and Jane Go to School” and I would be thinking, not so fast, kids. Where are your masks? Everything we do, everything we read, every plan for the future is now viewed through the prism of the ongoing health crisis. But that’s OK. We always bring our own lives to the RANDI first page of a new KREISS book. Reading is a diversion, but alas, it is not an escape. I read four books this month, which I chose specifically because I hoped to get away from the grind of the daily news and from other books featuring pandemics, natural disasters, environmental catastrophes and family trauma. Ultimately, my choices did not offer escape from the moment, but they did offer comfort, and the knowledge that painful life challenges are part of the human condition.
Because my attention span is a casualty of pandemic anxiety, I selected relatively short books. I want to read Jonathan Franzen’s “Crossroads,” for example, but I’m not yet up for a nearly 600page read. My first choice was “Midnight in the Library,” by Matt Haig. A young woman decides to end her life, and winds up in a kind of supernatural middle space called the library, managed by a kindly old librarian who may or may not be her former teacher, or God. She has the chance, then, to choose other lives she might have lived, and is transported into those lives to try them out. Despite the serious theme, the writing is clever and entertaining. Naturally, it made me think about my own what-ifs. Over the past two pandemic years, who didn’t feel like clicking their ruby slippers and going back to a pre-Covid world? Who didn’t romanticize other unlived lives? I also read “Klara and the Sun,” by Kazuo Ishiguro. The story imagines a future in which parents can purchase artificial friend robots, or AF’s, for their kids. Children spend all their time indoors, learning on screens called
I
“oblongs.” They attend special classes to learn how to socialize with their friends because their lives are so solitary. I thought the robot story would be so removed from real life that it would offer distraction. However, the lives of the children in “Klara and the Sun” are prophetic of this exact time in history, when children are isolated and suffering from that isolation. Again, the novelist had his ear to the ground in a way no one could have predicted. His descriptions of a future dystopian society are prescient in many disturbing ways. None of these novels can offer a flying carpet out of our own predicaments. What they can do, and it’s worth the ride, is validate the richness of the human experience and offer hope. My third suggestion is “Djinn Patrol on the Purple Line,” by Deepa Anaparra. This story had the best chance of getting me out of my head and into the life of the 9-year-old Indian narrator who hopes to solve the mystery of disappearing children in his “basti,” or slum neighborhood. Strangely, the novel is buoyant and funny and ultimately hopeful, although it follows a tragic series of events. The joy was in the narrative “voice” of the

young boy, whose observations of adult behavior are keen and funny. I enjoyed the immersion in the sensory kaleidoscope that is India. The story depicts, too, the contrast of the “hi-fi” rich people who live in the “hi-fi” buildings outside the slums. So, before long, I was thinking about how our own homegrown disparities in wealth alter the experience of living through a global pandemic. The last book I read this month was “Northern Spy,” by Flynn Berry, a thriller about the Troubles in Northern Ireland, the divisions within the population and the mistrust between the IRA and the Brits. Countrymen and women turned against one another. Families divided over politics. Governments abusing their power. Politicians lying to their constituents and choosing personal power over service to the voters. Sound familiar? The descriptions of scenery along the coast near Belfast are stunning. And the story is a page-turner. Of course, it also brought home the destabilizing political division in our own country. Perhaps we cannot read to escape. No matter. We read to know that others survive tragedies. We read for the comfort of knowing that we are not alone. Copyright 2022 Randi Kreiss. Randi can be reached at randik3@aol.com.
