Making sweet creations in W.H. Sydney Perry competes in TV baking contest By lIsA MARGARIA lmargaria@liherald.com
Sydney Perry, a former accountant and a co-owner of Sydney’s Sweets bakery in West Hempstead, took part in Food Network’s “Spring Baking Championship: Easter” series, in which seven bakers compete to win $25,000. The first episode aired on Feb. 28. Perry grew up in Queens, baking alongside her mother on weekends. She was always creative and liked ar t,
although when she headed off to college, she majored in accounting. “My parents were really proud of me, and they kind of wanted me to ensure that I could get a good job,” she said. “That was always the thing — you want to make sure that you can get a good job that’s something reliable, something that can make you a good living, a good amount of money, and they said, well, why not accounting? And I just went for it. It wasn’t
something that I dreamed of doing, it was something that seemed solid, so I picked it. It worked for a while, until it didn’t anymore.” After graduating from Howard University in Washington, D.C., with a degree in accounting and finance in 2005 and landing a job at PriceWaterhouseCoopers soon after, Perry started baking as a serious hobby.

Community service club holding food drive The Community Service Club at Howard T. Herber Middle School in Malverne is holding a canned food drive on March 12. Students from all schools across the Malverne Union Free School District can donate canned foods, but items will be held at Howard T. Herbert Middle School. The club is asking for donations of canned food, pasta, rice, boxed drinks, cereal, peanut butter and jelly and paper goods. A drop-off will be held at the middle school on March 12 between 9 a.m. and 12 p.m. You can enter the drop-off on Wicks Lane and exit on Aberdeen Street. The club, founded 25 years ago, has been holding a food drive since its inception. Rosen, a social work consultant who has worked at the school for 30 years, said he has a “passion” for community service and that student members of the club between grades six and grades eight match this passion for helping those in need. Rosen said the club frequently donates to a number of local food pantries, including The INN in Hempstead. Additionally, the Community Service Club has raised money for the Red Cross in El Paso, Texas following Hurricane Harvey, as well as for Haiti following the earthquake of 2010. For more information about the March 12 food drive, Rosen can be contacted at mrosen@malverneschools.org.

MTA gets on board with lower rider fares By LISA MARGARIA lmargaria@liherald.com
The Metropolitan Transportation Authority has launched initiatives for more convenient and affordable travel, including extending the $5 flat fare weekend CityTicket to all weekday off-peak trains, a new 20-trip ticket, an additional 10 percent discount on monthly tickets, a fare calculator and a “Lucky 13” feature. “This is all about winning riders back to the MTA system,” said MTA Chair and CEO Janno Lieber about the MTA’s initiatives to increase railroad ridership within New York City, which is now 47 percent but fell to as low as 3 percent of pre-pandemic levels during the past two years. “I’ve made it a priority to get creative on fares,” Lieber said. “A big part of that is giving customers the best deal for their money. The new 20-trip ticket option was created this specifically for the rider who might be coming into the office only a few times a week.” Long Island Rail Road commuters have expressed frustration with ticket prices, including one West Hempstead native, 22, who now lives in New York City. “It’s ridiculous– it’s absurd,” she said, adding that the cost reduces the amount of times she visits her parents in West Hempstead. She declined to give her name. “Often I won’t come home, or I’ll take the subway to Brooklyn and make my dad pick me up from Brooklyn because – [although] it takes double the amount of time – it’s half the price,” she said. “The Long Island Rail Road is absurd. I have people say that they don’t want to come to me for the weekend because the Long Island railroad is too expensive.” When purchased through MTA eTix or at a ticket window, the 20-trip ticket – valid for 60 days – will offer 20 percent off comparable 20-peak one-way fares. Monthly tickets, which are currently discounted from 48 to 61 percent off comparable peak tickets, will now be able to reach up to a 71 percent discount. The LIRR also suspended peak fares, which charge up to 27 percent more for trips at rush hours, in March 2020 due to Covid. The reduced rate is $2.25 or a 31 percent discount from Metro-North’s current weekday fare between the Bronx and

Manhattan, which previously cost $7.25, and $2.75 or a 35 percent discount from the LIRR’s current weekday fare between eastern Queens and Manhattan or Brooklyn, which previously cost $7.75. CityTickets must be purchased and activated before boarding the train. Fares purchased onboard for intra-city travel will remain $14 for LIRR and $13 for Metro-North. “Customers debating which ticket is the most economical should use the newly launched fare calculator on our website to find the best deal,” said MTA Chief Customer Officer Sarah Meyer. “All customers need to do is enter their origin and destination stations and how many rides they’ll need, and the calculator will take care of the heavy lifting.” Launched on Feb. 28, the Lucky 13 component of the MTA’s fare capping pilot program makes every 13th trip on buses and subways free. One Metro New York riders can accumulate benefits weekly, receive free transfers between subways and buses, and would not pay more than $33 per week – which is the current price of a seven day unlimitedride Metrocard – so customers receive the

Baking creative sweets in West Hempstead
Courtesy Sydney’s Sweets
Sydney Perry develoPed a talent for baking delicious pies and cakes, eventually becoming an expert in cake decoration as well. a storefront on Hempstead Avenue in West Hempstead, and opened Sydney’s Sweets in 2013. The business, and its clientele, grew while Sydney continued to work on the finance team at ABC News. In May 2021, a casting director from
the Food Network found the business on Instagram, @Sydneys_sweets, and contacted the Perrys. Because lots of spam and phishing direct messages get sent out through Instagram, the couple was skeptical at first, but after looking closely at the
account and speaking with the casting director, they knew they could trust it. The “Spring Baking Championship: Easter” series was taped at Silvercup Studios in Long Island City, though Perry could not disclose when or how long it took, because the full series has not yet been released. During that period, a trusted team took care of the work at Sydney’s Sweets. Perry couldn’t say much about the show until after it was taped, her mother said, so it was a total surprise when Perry revealed that the big project she had been working on was a TV show. In the first episode, she served three Food Network judges a chocolate Easter dessert, and host Jordan Andino noted Sydney’s attention to detail in her giant, Very Busy Bunny almond chocolate raspberry cake. Perry’s family and close friends gathered at her parents’ house in St. Albans, where they watched the premiere. “We were very excited,” Singleton said. “To see your family on TV, it was like, oh, wow. It was very fulfilling and exciting.” “I will say: Before it came on I was anxious about it all day,” Sydney said. “I was low-key terrified to see myself on TV because you just never know how you’re going to look, how you’re going to come across. But it was all really good, I was very happy and excited once it came on. It was like something that you dream about doing, and now it’s really here.”

talent, baking delicious pies and cakes that got compliments from family and friends. “I would make things and just kind of give it away,” Perry recalled. “My mom would take it to work, my dad would take it to church. It just started to grow from there.” She began her bakery business in 2006 in her mother’s kitchen, filling orders for her first customers — her mother’s employees, family members and neighbors — with the help of her boyfriend, Jermaine Perry, who’s now her husband. Eventually Sydney began making specialty decorated cakes, and business grew further. “When people started asking for specialty cakes, I realized, ‘Oh, this is how I can use my artistic side,’ and I was good at it,” she said. “My house looked like a bakery,” her mother, Leslie Singleton, said. “We had to put in two ovens to try and keep up with the orders.” When Sydney and Jermaine were preparing to have a son in 2013, “We just decided that it was time to give our dream a real chance,” Sydney said. “We just couldn’t put our livelihood in someone else’s hands,” Jermaine added, “and it was the perfect time to make the leap and open the store that we had been talking about for years.” He described their realization as having “divine timing.” Within three months, the couple found

Malverne falls in Class B title game By TONY BELLISSIMO tbellissimo@liherald.com
Malverne’s quest to repeat as Nassau Class B boys’ basketball champions was dashed by Friends Academy. The Mules scored the first basket of the title game March 2 at Hofstra University but led only once thereafter as the top-seeded Quakers captured their first county crown in 11 years, 59-46. The teams had split regular-season meetings and entered the rubber match with identical 18-2 records. “We didn’t do a good enough job of moving the ball and getting high-percentage shots,” Malver ne assistant coach Walter Aksionoff said. “Friends was very agg ressive right from the start and played really strong defense compared to the first two games we played, so give them credit.” Friends Academy had four double-digit scorers, led by Gabe Ferencz’s 16 points, and advanced to face Southampton in the Long Island Class B championship game. Six-foot-8 center C.J. Williams added 14 points and point guard Malachi Poulson and Logan Mott added 13 apiece for the victors. Seniors Trey Robinson (15), DeAndre Blagrove (12) and Keondre Greene (10) all scored in double figures for No. 2 Malverne, which scored 76 and 65 points against the Quakers in a pair of February battles. “It’s not like we had a lot of turn-
overs,” Aksionoff said. “We took a good amount of shots. The problem was, when you look at the shot chart there weren’t nearly enough from inside the paint.” Williams scored eight points in the opening quarter to help the Quakers build a 12-10 lead. Malverne’s final lead of the night came after Croom hit a 12-foot jumper late in the first. Friends raced to a 25-12 advantage midway through the second in large part because of Poulson, who scored nine points during a 13-2 run. “Twenty-four [Poulson] did a nice job driving to the basket,” Aksionoff said. “He’s got a quick first step.” The Mules, who edged No. 3 Wheatley 49-46 in the semifinals, chipped away at the double-digit hole and scored 10 of the last 14 points of the half to get within 29-22 at halftime. Blagrove, who is playing football at the next level, hit two field goals and three free throws to provide Malverne a brief spark. However, as was the case during both regular-season meetings, Friends enjoyed the upper hand in the third quarter. This time, the Quakers outscored the Mules by a 13-5 margin and led comfortably by 15 heading into the fourth. Malverne got within 51-43 with 1:52 remaining on a pair of Croom free throws but couldn’t pose a serious threat in crunch time. “Everyone’s disappointed,” Aksionoff said. “The kids fought hard.”

Evidence presented for street name change continued from front page said that in the eighth grade she grew angry discovering Lindner’s ties to the Klan. This anger, she said, has turned into disappointment in the village for failing to rename the street. Calling on the village to act, she said, “Passively neglecting a cause is the same as actively opposing it. Rename Lindner Place.” Corbett, who met with Brown after the February village meeting, said he is glad she and others in the community are “taking up the mantle” of renaming the street. “We will review it and we will continue the dialogue we’ve started to see how we’re going to address this issue and resolve this issue,” Corbett said, reaffirming the village’s commitment to consider renaming the street and acknowledging that the report is “thorough.”
New evidence emerges
Jamie Bellamy, a member of the renaming committee, said that the level of evidence unearthed in the report led the renaming committee to be “even more convinced” that the street name must be changed “to better reflect the current values of our village.” “He wasn’t on the sidelines, his involvement wasn’t speculated -- it’s real, it’s documented, and he was in charge,” Bellamy said, adding that the evidence shows Lindner held Klan meetings in Malverne, and that he was the Great Titan of KKK Prov-
ince Two, which encompasses parts of Nassau, Suffolk and Queens counties. The evidence shows Lindner held Klan meetings in Malverne to set up the monthly calendar, review items for the news bureau, as well as distributing bulletins. “He organized Klan propaganda and terrorist acts right here in our own backyard,” Bellamy said. Don Pupke, a resident who said he has studied Lindner’s life for four years for the purpose of writing a book on the history of Malverne, said the facts paint a dark picture of Lindner. “This man lived two lives,” Pupke said of Lindner. “One bright life before 1920; one dark life after 1920, when he was a member of the Klan.” Pupke took a new approach to argue in favor of renaming the street by assessing Lindner’s character in the years before he led the KKK. “Even in his good years, he wasn’t that good,” he said, adding that when Lindner was the Democratic Party’s nominee for Town of Hempstead supervisor in 1913, he was accused of bribing the head of the party with $3,000 checks. “I support the renaming because it’s the right thing to do based on the facts,” Pupke said, adding that they portray Lindner as a bigot and KKK leader. “It’s also the right thing to do because there will never be a time when Lindner’s philosophy of racism, anti-Semitism, antiItalian, anti-Irish, anti-Catholic intimida-

tion and cross burnings will ever be morally right.”
‘Erasing history’
Bellamy said those who oppose the effort often claim changing the street name would “erase history,” but she refuted this claim, arguing that changing the name is necessary for Malverne to move past Lindner’s legacy. “Leaving it alone means avoiding the bigotry, racism, prejudice and discrimination that did not affect some residents personally but deeply affected others,” Bellamy said. She added that people remain impacted by the street name today. “The street sign casts a symbolic historic shadow of an advocate of hate and intolerance that affects the people of color and faith who walk down the street to send their children to school or to attend church, and any other empathetic and compassionate village of Malverne resident,” she said. “Addressing history does not mean changing the facts,” she said. “What are we changing? A physical street sign… named for a man who was an advocate of hate.”
Concerns of residents addressed
Board trustee Patricia M. Fitzpatrick asked Bellamy if the renaming committee researched how residents of Lindner Place would be financially impacted by the name change, since it would require residents to

Bellamy said the renaming committee spoke to attorneys who said the name change would not require a reissuing of deeds to residents’ property. This would be similar to moving to a new location, Bellamy said. Pupke said title insurance companies told him that once the street name is changed, properties are deeded out, noting that the resident formerly lived at Lindner Place. Corbett said the village board plan to evaluate the renaming committee report. “Hopefully, we can finally get to the point where we can address it,” Corbett said.

Putin will always want more Obsession, by its nature, is never satisfied. Always wanting more, getting more. Obstacles only make the need grow stronger. Putin turns 70 this year. Will he die without accomplishing what he set out to do? Never! He must leave behind a strong legacy. He must rewrite history by reversing the breakup of the Soviet Union. He’s got to rebuild the old empire. Never satisfied with what he has, he’ll continue to pursue more. Taking what he believes should be his, justifying his pursuit of more by saying it belongs to us (to me). Obsession, with an intense focus on one concern, inevitably creates blindness to other concerns. He thought it would be easy. No resistance. Why should there be? He’s entitled. If he wins in Ukraine, it won’t end there. Gaining more ground leads to wanting still more. Obstacles make the obsession strong er. If he fears losing g round, he might take extreme action. He’s already threatened the use of nuclear power. He can inda never let it just be. The nature of obsession is you rigidly hold on; you don’t let go! Look at Trump. He’s still saying the election was stolen. He’s still nursing resentment and conspiracy theories. This void in Putin’s self creates a bottomless pit of entitlement. He cannot be reasonable. He’ll never listen to the other side. As he issues commands to the military to keep pressing on, he’s silently praising himself for the brilliant job he’s doing, making his entitlement known as the world watches. How did Putin get to be this way? His father was seriously injured in World War II. His mother worked many hours in a factory; yet the family often didn’t have enough to eat. His two older brothers died before he was born. Growing up in a poor home, small for his age, he was picked on and bullied. He waged war against rats that infested his bleak, dilapidated apartment. Life was punishing, begrudging him even the basics. He became a street kid, left to form his own character. He studied martial arts to toughen up, becoming a black belt. An ambitious teen, he was never satisfied with what he had. Yet, he was always controlled, never showing emotion.
Do most kids who grow up like Putin become obsessive, never feeling that they’ve done enough, that they are enough? Of course not. Indeed, some become quite empathetic, knowing what it’s like to grow up in a disadvantaged environment. Others, however, want to erase their past by gaining power. Yet, it’s never enough power. They’re always in search of more. Putin’s been nursing grievances he desperately wants to overturn. Failing is not an option. He must emerge victorious. Despite displaying a calm exterior, an intense interior is pressing on. He’s obsessed about leaving a glorious legacy. Returning the Soviet Union to the way it used to be. The way it should be. Will this be his Waterloo? The goddess Fortuna is unpredictable. Despite all he does to fortify his obsession, Fortuna may scream ENOUGH! ENOUGH! — while spinning the wheel in the opposite direction. Time will tell. “Nothing is enough for the man to whom enough is too little.” Epicurus apadin My son Glenn lived in Russia during the time of Perestroika, working for the US Aid for International Development. His mission was to help the Russian people learn about capitalism, that it’s not a crime to make a profit. The first time we visited, there was only one restaurant in St. Petersburg manned by armed guards, with no menu. You sat down and ate what they gave you. When we visited three years later, there were Barbie doll stores. Yes, the Russian people learned quickly! After his mission in Russia was completed, he was sent to Ukraine, then Uganda. I visited those countries too and have very fond memories. Hence, my heart breaks not only for the Ukrainians but for the Russian soldiers sent there with no choice in the matter.

impressed that your lawyer is concerned that the issues you described are complicated. I’m used to everyone who doesn’t regularly address plans and applications having a simplistic view of the process. It isn’t uncommon for owners asking building departments or their lawyers about what is needed and then telling onte eeper me they only need a “sketch” to make an application. The word sketch makes the whole issue sound simpler, faster and cheaper, but is far from the reality. If a sketch were provided, it would only be for something like a fence permit, where some building departments let the owner write on their property survey. What the building department forgets to tell you is that surveys are legal documents that usually have a statement on them that it’s illegal to alter them. I’m sure surveyors wouldn’t include that statement if they didn’t mean it, but that statement is all too often completely ignored. Your attorney is correct that even moving a fence so the survey shows the fence on the property line is complicated. I rarely hear of neighbors volunteering to move a fence that has been there for many years. It usually sets up a bad relationship when new neighbors move in and start asking to up-heave their neighbor’s lives. Finished basements are no less of a dilemma, since your municipality, like most, won’t allow bedrooms or kitchens in basements. Many people put these rooms in, waiting to see if anyone ever says a word, which is why I have to tell people their neighbors up and down the street may have a kitchen and bedrooms in the basement, but none of them are actually legal. I know that isn’t what you wanted to hear, especially since you felt the pressure to go into a contract for the house. I’ve often said to people buying a house that I wish it was part of the transaction, as common as a home inspection, often called an “engineer’s report” (even though most people inspecting the house aren’t engineers), that someone with code and zoning knowledge should examine the premises and survey to address potential problems before you go into contract. Good luck!

and it has a lot of violations. The owner says it’s “as is” and will not take care of the violations before we take the house. One of the violations is for a finished basement we would like to put two bedrooms in, and a kitchen for when we entertain. Another is for a fence that our new survey says is 1½ feet into the property, which our attorney says is complicated because the neighbor, whom we have never met, might not be so responsive to giving back the property. We really have no choice, since we’re already in contract, but does this sound like the big problem our lawyer says it is?

W
e live in a world where sports matchups of almost any kind are totally unpredictable. Whether it’s football, baseball, basketball or hockey, a game is frequently decided in the final minutes or seconds. In the legal world, many cases can go either way as well, depending on the law or the facts. But there’s one place where, it’s safe to say, in many key cases, the score will be 6-3. I refer to the United States Supreme Court. In the next four JERRY months, the court will be making KREMER decisions on such topics as abortion, affirmative action, immigration, gun rights and congressional redistricting. You don’t need a scorecard to figure out what the results are likely to be, because several of the nine justices have telegraphed their views to the outside world long before the cases will be argued in front of them. A look back at history shows that this isn’t the first court majority whose legal
views were well known to the outside world. From 1953 to 1969, the court was led by Chief Justice Earl Warren. Unlike any before it, the Warren Court dramatically expanded civil rights, civil liberties and the powers of the court itself. It ended racial segregation and state-sanctioned prayer in public schools, ensured equal representation in state legislatures and paved the way for the legalization of abortion. The Warren Court was one of the more liberal courts in judicial history. In contrast, the court led by Chief Justice William Rehnquist, from 1986 to 2005, moved to the right, giving states more power, striking down provisions of the Violence Against Women Act and, in 2000, famously ruling that George W. Bush had been elected president. To the surprise of many, the Rehnquist Court upheld Roe v. Wade, which granted women the right to have an abortion. Given the fact that this court had among its members Antonin Scalia, Sandra Day O’Connor, Clarence Thomas and Anthony Kennedy, it’s no wonder that it was unpredictable when it handed down rulings on cases with strong nationwide
o
interest. The current court is headed by Chief Justice John Roberts, but it is dominated by five justices who have already made clear where they stand on cases already argued and yet to come. Last September, Justice Amy Coney Barrett, speaking at the University of Louisiana, said that the court is “not a bunch of partisan hacks.” She warned that “justices must be hyper-vigilant to make sure that they are not letting their personal biases creep into their decisions.” She made that speech after voting to uphold a Texas law that bars abortions after six weeks. Anyone who believes that Justices Barrett and Thomas are independent thinkers is mistaken. In 2006, Barrett, then a law professor at Notre Dame, signed a full-page ad in the South Bend (Ind.) Tribune by St. Joseph County Right to Life, stating that it was “time to put an end to the barbaric legacy of Roe v. Wade and restore laws that protect the lives of unborn children.” At her congressional confirmation hearing, she waffled, saying only that Roe v. Wade had been affirmed many times. This spring, when the court rules on a
ver the next four months, the justices are set to make some huge decisions.
Mississippi law prohibiting abortions after 15 weeks, you don’t have to guess where Barrett will stand. The court’s longest-serving justice is Clarence Thomas. According to The New Yorker, Thomas’s wife, Virginia, is involved with a number of organizations that file briefs before the court opposing affirmative action and abortion, favoring gun rights and offering strong opinions on many other current cases. One of the cases now before the court is a suit by the New York State Rifle & Pistol Association to overturn a New York City law that places limits on carrying guns outside the home. Thomas’s expected opinion, to throw out the law, won’t help Mayor Eric Adams in his efforts to curb gun violence. During my career as an attorney, I have always had the greatest respect for our judiciary and the court system in general. But it saddens me to think that some of the most consequential cases in our lifetime are destined to be decided by that 6-3 margin. 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.
As the pandemic pushes past two years, where are we?
N
othing like the threat of World War III, and a red-hot nuclear reactor, to focus one’s attention. After more than two years of obsessively parsing the news about the global pandemic ravaging the world, we now have an escalating war in Eastern Europe to distract us. The invasion of Ukraine by Russia has eclipsed the grim coverage of people sick and dying of a runaway virus. Now we have 24/7 coverage of people fleeing and dying in a firestorm let loose RANDI by a runaway KREISS Vladimir Putin. Irony abounds. We were blindsided by Covid and blindsided by Russia, although there was plenty of evidence in both cases that something bad was coming down. In this moment, the two global events are creating a kind of whipsaw effect, with our battered psyches in the middle. In the past few weeks, as Covid restrictions loosened, I wasn’t ready to join the party. It seems that very young
children and older people are still vulnerable to getting sick, possibly very sick. The difficult piece of this is that the protocol for any one individual is, well, individual. Americans aren’t good at nuance, but that’s what we need for now. How much risk do I take, and when and why? When will it be safe to go to a wedding or a funeral? Many of us have stopped thinking at all about the coronavirus, because we’re creatures of the news cycle, and the news has moved on to Ukraine. It creates our reality: what we think about, what we talk about and what we worry about. For many of us, the constant stream of “breaking news,” whether it was about the pandemic for the past two years, or now, the Russian invasion, is a nonstop anxiety machine. The day 24/7 news became a thing was the day we enslaved ourselves and our sense of well-being to an outside force. Sometimes the coverage feeds on itself, reporters interviewing other reporters, and anchors hosting the same military talking heads all day and all night long, the same “news” repeated again and again.
T
I am rarely in a situation these days, whether out with a friend or gathering with family, that someone isn’t beeped and dinged with “breaking news.” This is the pandemic that will do us in. In just these two weeks, we have traded our addiction to Covid news for minute-to-minute coverage of one country blowing another country to bits. Wherever I look, people are staring, transfixed, at their phones, like players in a dystopian science fiction story come true. As we move into the third year of the pandemic (which clearly is not over and the first weeks of the Russian onslaught, we need to ground ourselves. That means time away from the news. As we move toward spring and the hope of warmer weather, we need to get up and out again, walking or biking or driving to someplace with open spaces. The signs of spring are always life-affirming, but you won’t find them on Fox or CNN. Get to the beach or walk around the block, and before you do, leave your buddy at home. That would be the phone, which can survive very nicely on its own while you live for a while in your own
here will never be a new normal. It will be something else, but what?
head. Refreshed, we can carry on through this rough patch as we figure out how to stay safe and how to think about this war in Eastern Europe. We do not travel light. We carry the memory of nearly one million Americans who died of Covid. We ventured out the other evening to sit in an outside tented area of a restaurant. It wasn’t perfect. It felt strange to wait for food, and I was impatient. This isn’t a new normal, I realize. There will never be a new normal. It will be something else, and we aren’t there yet. As we begin Year Three of the pandemic and continue Month One of the Ukraine invasion, we must turn off the noise and find some quiet space to think. Many of us need to restore our faith in the future. I grew up just expecting everything to be fine, and then there were the assassinations and the Vietnam War. Today teenagers are worrying about a draft or another pandemic. Comfort does not come from the media or any outside source. It comes from within, in its own time, when we find reason to believe again in the possibility of a peaceful future in a healthy world. Copyright 2022 Randi Kreiss.

Sunshine Week is all about open government
W
hen James Madison assembled fellow members of his Virginia delegation in 1787, few of them knew what was up his sleeve. What they did know was that the Articles of Confederation — the law of the land since 1781 — simply wasn’t working. Madison surprised all of them, revealing that they weren’t fixing the Articles, but replacing them. The Virginia Plan, as it was called, would become the blueprint for what followed, earning Madison the moniker “Father of the Constitution.” But the man who would become the fourth president of the United States is actually responsible for something far greater: the Bill of Rights, the 10 constitutional amendments that guarantee a number of freedoms like that of religion, assembly — and the press. That’s why journalists celebrate Madison’s birthday — March 16 — as part of “Sunshine Week,” a national initiative created by the American Society of News Editors to educate all of us about the importance of open government, and how dangerous excessive and unnecessary secrecy from our leaders can be. It serves as a reminder that government agencies should be accessible and accountable to their constituents, and should encourage input from that very public. The First Amendment protects journalistic freedom, but we have had to depend on other laws — like President Lyndon B.

letters Picking and choosing on quality of life? To the Editor: It is ironic that our Republican and Democratic officials claim they are protecting the environment and our “suburban quality of life” by opposing Gov. Kathy Hochul’s affordable housing plan in the 2022-23 state budget. Are our elected officials fighting to close and clean the Brookhaven Landfill, which has been dumping toxins into the predominantly Black and Latino community of North Bellport since 1974? Are Long Island representatives decrying the proposed zoning changes and a Winters Bros. plan to bring in 6,000 tons of garbage every day, right next to the aforementioned landfill? Where was the opposition while developers constructed luxury condominiums throughout Glen Cove and Glenwood Landing, further congesting traffic? We cannot cherry-pick when the environ-
Johnson’s Freedom of Information Act — to ensure that government truly is transparent by guaranteeing access to government documents. More often than not, we hear about media organizations — like the Heralds — lifting these veils of secrecy. But this isn’t a privilege of a select few; open records are a right for everyone. Sunshine Week is recognized each year by open-government advocates, local libraries, schools and other civic-minded organizations, which discuss government accessibility through news stories, opinion columns, blogs, web pages, seminars, editorial cartoons and even paid advertisements. Without open government, much of what you see in these pages simply wouldn’t be possible. Crime reporting? No. In-depth investigative pieces? Not a chance. Court proceedings? Legislative sessions? City council hearings? Board of education meetings? Only what leaders would choose to share. Laws mandating open meetings and open records give all of us the right to delve deeply into the activities of local, county, state and federal officials, and to draw our own conclusions about whether the people we vote into office are truly doing their jobs representing us. Despite all this progress toward transparency, there are constant efforts by the very officials mandated to provide this access to instead pull it back into darkness. Florida journalists created what grew into Sunshine Week two decades
ago, when the legislature there looked to pass hundreds of laws that would curtail such transparency. And there’s still much work to be done closer to home. New York agencies that don’t provide access to information and documents face the threat of lawsuits, but rarely actually suffer through them since few individuals or organization that would file them have the resources to go to court. Other states have created affordable (or even free) arbitration resolution methods. New York isn’t one of them. But things are changing. Last December, Gov. Kathy Hochul signed into law a measure requiring public hearings on issues in front of select state departments like Education and Environmental Conservation whenever 125 or more people petition state lawmakers for them. It also requires those hearings be held in the evenings and on weekends, allowing more people to attend. The meetings must also be broadcast, and teleconferencing must be an option. The law goes a long way in implementing new opportunities for meaningful public participation in governmental decision-making. It will do nothing less than help shift the balance of power from the government to the people. But it’s only a start. There is no such thing as too much transparency when it comes to government. A true democracy is leadership by the people, not a select few. And it’s the people that must continue to hold those who represent us accountable.

T
he unfolding situation in Ukraine and the Bipartisan Infrastructure Package. These seemingly unrelated topics help frame the realtime battle between authoritarianism and democracy that is boiling up in the pot of world debate. If we are going to reduce crime, cut taxes and help our troubled schools, we have a lot of work to do to make sure that democracy wins. Last fall, President Biden told members of Congress that both Russian President Vladimir Putin Tom and Chinese leader Xi Jinping had sUoZZi told him that they “don’t think democracy can accomplish big things in this world of social media and the 24-hour news cycle.” Russia and China believe that America, and democracies generally, are too divided. They don’t think we can accomplish
big things anymore, and that they can. Today’s division in Washington, Albany and governments across the country is hurting us. Elected officials pander to their base. The battles waged on Twitter and Facebook seep out into every part of our lives. Cable news talking heads pit Americans against one another, finding wedge issues that make us believe there’s more that divides us than unites us. Even more concerning are the efforts by our foreign adversaries to sow disinformation and civil unrest using the very platforms that they curtail in their own countries. Can we still do big things with so much dissent? A few months ago, we passed the largest ever investment in infrastructure in history — $1.2 trillion — and it was bipartisan. As vice chair of the Problem Solvers Caucus, I helped negotiate this oncein-a-generation infrastructure package. We overcame all of the rancor and division to pass a bill that will send billions

Gillen would be best Rice replacement To the Editor: As a moderate-progressive-liberal Republican, a rare breed in today’s extremist constellation of cultists tethered to the chicanery and shenanigans of our discredited, thoroughly unfit 45th president, I am delighted to cross the partisan Rubicon to endorse the candidacy of our former Town of Hempstead supervisor, Laura gillen, in the 4th Congressional District to succeed U.S. Rep. Kathleen Rice, who is stepping down. Along with her considerable experience, gillen brings a welcoming, inclusive style to governing, fully aware that politics is an honorable calling, not an exclusive opportunity to reward supporters and punish critics. Her formal nomination in a winning primary battle will advance her candidacy to the finals, Election Day on Nov. 8. Let’s send someone to Washington who will support our new, better President Joe Biden’s Build Back Better agenda. ASHER MATAHIAS Woodmere
of dollars to New York — with the state set to receive $13 billion in funding for roads and bridges; $24 billion for the Metropolitan Transportation Authority, including the Long Island Rail Road and New York City’s subways; over $1.4 billion for water and sewer system upgrades; and almost a billion more for much-needed airport upgrades and climate resiliency. The bipartisan infrastructure bill is real-life stuff that will rebuild our state and put millions of people to work. When it passed, however, it only received news coverage for a week, at most. It wasn’t one of the most highly viewed posts on social media, and no videos of Biden signing the legislation went viral. But if you ask everyday New Yorkers what they want from their elected officials, they will typically say they “want to see results.” Pandering to the base, Twitter likes, sound bites and saying outrageous things
to go viral or get booked on cable news shows won’t solve problems or improve people’s lives. This type of good I speak of is still possible. Working across party lines, Democrats and Republicans, progressives and moderates need to put the good of the people first. We are at a turning point. Americans — and New Yorkers — are sick and tired of the finger-pointing, the pandering and the division. Our government can do big, important things, and help solve problems to reduce crime, cut taxes, and help transform our troubled schools. But to do that, we must root out those who seek to divide us — those in public office, on social media, on cable news, as well as foreign adversaries who oppose our democracy and wish to sow civil unrest and do us harm. With our eyes wide open, we can and will succeed, because most of us want the same things: to help people and make the world better. U.S. Rep. Tom Suozzi represents New York’s 3rd Congressional District.Comments? OConnell11001@yahoo.com.

Career advice for the Cuomos To the Editor: Former gov. Andrew Cuomo has begun using part of his leftover $16 million re-election fund to pay for commercials. He now claims that he has been exonerated of charges that he sexually harassed a number of women. Andrew and his brother Chris might be better off if they listened to Kenny Rogers’s song “The gambler.” Rogers sings, “You’ve gotta know … when to fold ’em, know when to walk away …” It is wishful thinking on Andrew Cuomo’s part that he can resume his political career with a simple media blitz. Both he and Chris should look for honest work. Why not follow in their grandparents’ footsteps and open another family grocery store in Queens? (Chris, who loves working out, could open a gym upstairs.) The brothers have a long history of selling baloney. That makes them perfectly suited for this new occupation. LARRY PENNER Great Neck
