11-year-old battling leukemia gets surprise homecoming By Kyle Barr After more than four months of treatment battling acute myeloid leukemia, a blood and bone marrow cancer, 11-yearold Jackson Edwards returned home Monday from Johns Hopkins Hospital in Baltimore, Maryland to the sound of a Terryville fire truck honking and the cheers of friends and family. “I don’t know how to put it — it’s such a wave of emotions,” Jackson’s mother Danielle Edwards said. “We’re happy, finally. Jackson’s a little nervous because he’s so far away from the hospital and he’s thin from the treatment, but he’s happy to be with his people.” Tired from the long trip and overwhelmed by the number of people who had shown up for the surprise homecoming, Jackson only stood outside for a few minutes July 31, waving to his friends and family before heading back inside. They had taken a 6-hour drive to get back to Terryville from Johns Hopkins. “[Jackson and his mom] had no idea what was here,” Jackson’s aunt DeeDee Edwards said. She had helped plan the surprise homecoming, and was in charge of keeping the mother and son in the dark. “Jackson was counting the stoplights until we got here, and he was so overwhelmed by all the people who came to support him.” Though the drive home was long, the real difficulty for Jackson and his family was the more than 100 days he spent in Baltimore fighting the rare form of cancer.. Jackson has always been a charismatic young man, according to his family. He’s a typical 11-year-old — he loves wrestling and football. His favorite comic book and show characters are Captain America and Optimus Prime. In December 2013 Jackson was diagnosed with AML. It was the start of an arduous treatment process that saw Jackson go into remission in May 2014. Around Christmas 2016, Jackson started to feel sick again, and after taking him to Stony Brook University Hospital, the family learned that the his disease had

In April he was transferred to Johns Hopkins in Maryland where he underwent a long and painful process of chemotherapy in preparation for a later bone marrow transplant. Meanwhile, friends and family worked hard to fund raise and help Jackson’s mother in finding options for his treatment. Deirdre Cardarelli, a friend of the family, worked hard to help throw the surprise welcome for the Edwards’.

The Long Island Rail Road is experiencing some delays after the Metropolitan Transportation Authority announced Amtrak’s emergency repair work beginning July 10, according to information on the agency’s website. Amtrak, along with the LIRR, have major transit hub stations at Penn Station in Manhattan. According to the MTA, the work will affect about 10,000 customers during weekday rush hours and will be completed September 1, and the repairs are getting some mixed responses from commuters. As a student at Stony Brook University, 19-year-old Jas Preet said her commute is mildly affected by the shifting train times when she’s leaving campus. “There’s been delays, and they changed the times to go to Stony Brook,” she said during an interview at the station overlooking the campus. “It makes it a little worse. I have to take the later train now because my class ends at 11:30 [a.m.], and I would take the 11:46 [a.m.] train, but now I have to take the 12:10 [p.m.] train.” Several commuters said they aren’t affected by delays or new train times at all because they don’t take the LIRR all the way to Penn Station. Stony Brook University student, Vikas Desai, “was not aware of the construction” occurring at Penn Station this summer, she said.. However, Ron DiBiase of Setauket, who said he travels via the LIRR everyday from Stony Brook station, said the delays make his morning commute “much more difficult.” “The trains, on more than one occasion, are very congested, and it’s a shame,” he said. “They should’ve invested the time and funding earlier not to impact millions of people during the summer.” The MTA has added more cars to several trains to increase capacity for each trip. They have also introduced up to a 25 percent fare reduction for commuters who avoid Penn Station during the summer months. Summer train delays come just a few weeks after the State Senate approved construction for a third track which will be built along the existing two tracks of the LIRR from Floral Park to Hicksville during the course of several years. Construction for the third track will cost an estimated $1.95 billion. For commuters traveling during what has been dubbed the “summer of hell,” one state lawmaker is working to give riders some relief from delays and schedule changes that have resulted since the start of repair projects. State Assemblyman Chad Lupinacci (R-Huntington Station) is drafting a bill that would give riders a rebate for their weekly or monthly train tickets. “There’s now a decrease in quality and efficiency that’s no longer just a strain on riders’ schedules,” Lupinacci said in a phone interview. “It’s now affecting professional and personal lives, making commuters late to business meetings and family dinners.” The state assemblyman said he started working on the draft for the Long Island Rail Road Rider Rebate Bill after he received several hundred calls from constituents voicing their concerns and complaints with the current train service. According to Lupinacci the rebate would equal 25 percent of the price of a rider’s weekly or monthly ticket. If and when the bill passes, customers would be able to redeem their rebates at ticket booths at train stations. For more information about LIRR schedule changes visit www.lirrsummerschedule.com.

Clockwise from left, Mather’s board announced plans to join Northwell Health last week; and Northwell President and CEO Michael Dowling.
Mather Hospital announces plans to affiliate with Northwell New York State Senator Ken LaValle does not approve of the decision BY ALEX PETROSKI ALEX@TBRNEWSPAPERS.COM A Port Jefferson institution established in 1929 is set to undergo an unprecedented change, the likes of which has never occurred during its near-90-year history. John T. Mather Memorial Hospital leadership has signed a letter of intent to join Northwell Health, New York’s largest health care provider, which has 22 hospitals under its umbrella. Prior to the agreement, Mather was one of just two Long Island hospitals unaffiliated with a larger health system. Mather’s board considered affiliation with Stony Brook University Hospital, though ultimately decided on Northwell. “I don’t think it’s a good decision,” State Sen. Ken LaValle (R-Port Jefferson) said in a phone interview. LaValle is a fervent supporter of the university, often publicly spotted wearing a red SBU baseball cap. “For 50 years-plus there’s been a culture in place if people needed tertiary care they would go from Mather to Stony Brook. Stony Brook will still be in place, will still offer services and people still if they choose can go to Stony Brook.” LaValle said he didn’t know why Mather decided to go with Northwell, and members of Mather’s board declined to discuss specifics of the agreement with Northwell because discussions are ongoing. The changeover could take place as soon as prior to the end of the year. “I would have wished that the Mather board would have been considerate of the people in their area rather than for whatever other reasons they made this decision,” LaValle said. “I don’t know whether Northwell came in with a bag of cash and that’s why they made the decision; but if they were making the decision based on the people they serve in their catchment area they would have gone with Stony Brook.”
Mather Hospital Vice President of Public Affairs Nancy Uzo, said Stony Brook was considered an option for affiliation and offered an explanation by email as to why it was ultimately spurned. “Our goal through this process is to ensure that our communities continue to have access to advanced, high quality care and superior satisfaction close to home and to serve the best interests of our medical staff and employees,” she said. Mather Board of Directors Chairman Ken Jacoppi and President Ken Roberts declined to comment further through Uzo. “Our community, employees and medical staff have a deep commitment to Mather Hospital,” Roberts said in a press release. “We chose a partner that would support our culture of caring as well as our future growth.” Stony Brook University Senior Vice President for the Health Sciences and Dean of the School of Medicine Kenneth Kaushansky declined to comment on Mather’s decision via email. President Samuel L. Stanley Jr. did not respond to a direct request for comment nor through a university spokeswoman. In 2016 the American Hospital Association released research suggesting hospital mergers like the one Mather is set to undertake result in cost savings and quality improvements. According to the research, mergers decrease costs due to economies of scale, reduced costs of capital and clinical standardization among other efficiencies. An analysis showed a 2.5 percent reduction in annual operating expenses at acquired hospitals. Other benefits include the potential to drive quality improvements through standardization of clinical protocols and investments to upgrade facilities and services at acquired hospitals, an expansion of the scope of services available to patients and improvements to existing institutional strengths to provide more comprehensive and efficient care.
Huntington Hospital joined North Shore-LIJ in 1994, which became known as Northwell Health in February 2016. After the merger is official, Mather and Huntington hospitals will be the only Northwell hospitals on the North Shore in Suffolk County. “Mather Hospital is known for patientcentric care both in the community and throughout the industry,” Michael Dowling, Northwell’s president and CEO said in a statement. “That deeply embedded sense of purpose is the type of quality we want to represent Northwell Health, along with an excellent staff of medical professionals and physicians. Together, Mather and Northwell will play a crucial partnership role expanding world class care and innovative patient services to Suffolk County residents.” In what some view as a related move, Stony Brook announced in a press release Aug. 1 that Southampton Hospital would become a member of the Stony Brook Medicine health system. “Today we celebrate a unique opportunity in which academic medicine and community medicine can come together to benefit our entire region,” Stanley said. “We will continue to build on successful collaborations achieved over the past ten years, which have already brought many new programs to the East End, including a robust number of internship and residency programs at Stony Brook Southampton Hospital, and where students enrolled in graduate programs in the health sciences on the Stony Brook Southampton campus can put their training to good use as the next generation of allied health professionals to help address the shortage of providers on the east end and beyond.” The acquisition will result in new offerings at Stony Brook including a provisional Level 3 Trauma Center, with 24hour coverage by emergency medicine
doctors and a trauma surgeon available within 30 minutes, a Hybrid Operating Room with sophisticated imaging capabilities and a new cardiology practice in Southampton with Stony Brook cardiologists, among other benefits. LaValle declined to classify Mather’s decision as a “loss” for Stony Brook and added he expects Mather and the university to continue to enjoy a mutually beneficial relationship going forward. “Stony Brook is close by and they will reach out and still try to encourage both local physicians and people to come to Stony Brook,” he said.

SCPD disavows Trump’s ‘don’t be too nice’ comments By Victoria Espinoza victoria@tbrnewspapers.com A presidential visit to Suffolk County ended with the Suffolk County Police Department distancing itself from President Donald Trump’s (R) comments encouraging police officers to use more force with suspects at an event in Brentwood Friday, July 28. “Please don’t be too nice,” Trump said to an audience of Suffolk County Police officers. “When you guys put somebody in their [police] car and you’re protecting their head, you know the way you put your hand over their head? Like don’t hit their head and they’ve just killed somebody. I said you can take the hand away okay?” Officers broke into laughter and applause after Trump’s remarks, however less than two hours after he spoke police departments and organizations throughout the country came out to condemn Trump’s words. “As a department, we do not and will not tolerate roughing up of prisoners,” the Suffolk department said in a statement on Twitter. “The SCPD has strict rules and procedures relating to the handling of prisoners. Violations of those rules are treated extremely seriously.” For Suffolk County, the subject of police brutality is especially important, as
disgraced former police chief James Burke was sentenced to 46 months in federal prison for use of violent force with suspect Christopher Loeb, along with attempting to cover up his efforts and more. During the trial Loeb, who was imprisoned for a parole violation said the incident changed his life, according to a report from The New York Times. “I will never again feel comfortable in Suffolk County, the place I used to call home,” he said. Suffolk County Executive Steve Bellone (D) vowed to “reform [Suffolk County] governmentally and politically in a way that we can ensure this doesn’t happen again,” as a result of the details of Burke’s crimes becoming public. Trump traveled to Suffolk to talk about efforts to eradicate gang violence, particularly with MS-13, which has been associated with violent criminal offenses in the past year in the county, especially in Brentwood. Other police departments also condemned Trump’s rhetoric. “To suggest that police officers apply any standard in the use of force other than what is reasonable and necessary is irresponsible, unprofessional and sends the wrong message to law enforcement as well as the public,” a statement from the New York City Police Department said.
File photo
Former suffolk police chief James Burke was arrested for using violent force with a suspect two years ago.
One police officer from Gainesville, Florida directly called out both the president and the Suffolk cops who cheered on his remarks. “I’m a cop,” Ben Tobias said on Twitter. “I do not agree with or condone POTUS remarks today on police brutality. Those
that applauded and cheered should be ashamed.” Despite the reaction from the crowd, the Suffolk County Police Department was quick to distance itself from Trump’s remarks. U.S. Rep Lee Zeldin (R) traveled with Trump throughout his trip to Long Island and praised the president for his efforts. “This administration has taken a hard stance against gang activity, and it is imperative that we come together as one community in rejection of this violence which has claimed too many innocent lives,” he said in a statement. “It is our obligation to make eradicating this criminal organization a top priority.” Zeldin did not respond to requests for comment regarding Trump’s encouragement of police using less restraint with suspects. Outside the event Trump supporters were grateful to have the president come and focus on their issues. Smithtown resident Angela Martinez spoke in support for the president. “This is the best, Trump coming here,” she said in an interview. “This is supposed to be good for the Island, this is supposed to be good for the community. The community really needs to work together.” Additional reporting contributed by Kyle Barr.
Legislature plans for permanent drug advisory panel By KylE Barr Following another year of rising opioid use and overdoses, Suffolk County officials announced legislation that would create a new permanent advisory panel to try to address the issue. “We have lost people from this [problem],” Suffolk County Legislator Sarah Anker (D-Mount Sinai) said during a July 25 press conference. “Children have died, adults have died and we’re here to do more.” The panel would have 24 members, including representatives from health and science groups, members of law enforcement, hospital employees and individuals from the Legislature’s Committees on Health, Education and Human Services and would focus on prevention, education, law enforcement and drug rehabilitation across the county, Anker said. The panel is planned to be broken up into sub-committees, which would tackle a specific area. “This is an issue that needs all hands on deck,” Suffolk County Police Commissioner Tim Sini said. “We are not going to arrest ourselves out of this — this is a public health issue [of historic proportion], but law enforcement plays a critical role.” Over 300 people from Suffolk County died from opioid-related overdosess in 2016, according to county medical examiner records. Sini said that in 2016, the police administered Narcan, a nasal spray used as emergency treatment to reverse the effects of an opioid overdose, in Suffolk County
over 700 times. A 2010 bill saw the creation of a similar advisory panel with 13 members, many of whom are members of the new proposed panel. The original, impermanent panel ended five years ago, but had made 48 recommendations to the legislature focused mainly on prevention education, treatment and recovery. Two recommendations from this committee that were put in effect were the Ugly Truth videos shown in public schools, and countywide public Narcan training. Though proud of the work they did on that panel, members agreed the situation has worsened since it was disbanded. “[Seven] years ago we stood here and announced the initial panel — I had the privilege of co-chairing that group — a lot of the things we recommended actually happened, some things didn’t,” said Dr. Jeffrey Reynolds, chief executive officer of the Family and Children’s Association. “Regardless, the problem hasn’t gotten any better, and in fact, it’s gotten progressively worse. Some of the gaps in prevention, access to treatment, recovery and law enforcement haven’t yet been filled. For us to have an ongoing opportunity to have a dialogue together — to brainstorm some new solution to disrupt the patterns here — is very, very valuable.” On the education side, Islip School District Superintendent of Schools Susan Schnebel said at the press conference that education has to begin at a very young age. “It’s important that schools take hold of what happens in the beginning,” she said.

suffolk county legislator sarah anker speaks during a press conference July 25 about creating a permanent panel to address the ever-growing opioid crisis. “That includes educating students at a very early age, educating the parents to know what’s there, what are the repercussions, what is the law. That needs to happen with a 5 or 6-year-old.” Executive director of the North Shore Youth Council Janene Gentile, and member of the proposed panel, feels that the advisory panel is an important step. She said she hopes that it will be able to do more in helping prevent people, especially young people, from using opioids in the first place, and
hopefully help those exiting rehab. “Implementing a family component when they are in rehab is really crucial, while they are in rehab and when get out,” Gentile said. “There are other agencies like mine — 28 in Suffolk County. If we can reach out to them they can help with re-entry [into society]. They go on the outside and the triggers that started them on opioids are still there, and they need to have places where there are no drugs. We’ve gone through a lot, but we’ve got to do more — and prevention works.”

Long Islanders condemn Trump’s transgender military ban BY JILL WEBB In a show of unity, North Shore residents resoundingly condemned President Donald Trump’s (R) intentions to ban transgender people from the military this past week. Individuals gathered in front of the U.S. Army Recruitment Center in Smithtown July 27 in disapproval of President Trump’s announced ban. The ban stemmed from a series of tweets President Trump put out July 26, citing his reasoning for the transgender ban being that the military “cannot be burdened with the tremendous medical costs and disruption that transgender in the military would entail.” Trump’s declaration of the ban on Twitter led the Long Island Transgender Advocacy Coalition to come out to Smithtown to oppose the ban in a peaceful demonstration. The group advertised the demonstration via Facebook as a way for the transgender community and their allies to speak up for transgender service members. Juli Grey-Owens, executive director of LITAC led the demonstration with a loudspeaker in hand, chanting in solidarity with the transgender community. The goal of the demonstration, according to Grey-Owens, was to put transgender soldiers in the spotlight. “To make people aware of the fact that there are Americans that are supporting
our transgender troops — that’s important,” she said. “Number two, it’s to make people aware of the fact that the transgender community is constantly under duress, constantly being discriminated against and this is just one more thing.” The aim of LITAC is to advocate for the transgender community, often through forums, demonstrations, and putting on informational sessions that Grey-Owens refers to as “transgender 101s.” The Sexual Orientation Non-Discrimination Act, passed in 2003 makes it unlawful for anyone in New York State to be discriminated against in employment, housing, credit, education and public accommodations because of their actual or perceived sexual orientation. But the law isn’t as clear for transgender individuals. SONDA does not explicitly prohibit discrimination based on gender identity and expression — but it does apply when a transgender person is discriminated against based upon his or her actual or perceived sexual orientation, according to the New York State Attorney General’s office. Specific counties and areas, including Nassau and Suffolk County have taken matters into their own hands and passed more specific anti-discrimination legislation for sexual orientation. Grey-Owens said that LITAC’s objective is to step in any time the transgender community is being discriminated against.

The executive director, along with many of the other attendees of the demonstration, was aggravated with Trump’s claims regarding the expenses of transgender health. “One of things that they found is the number is so small in comparison to the defense budget, that it is a point zero something of the actual cost,” Grey-Owens said. “The army spends more on Viagra — ten times more on Viagra — then they will on transgender health costs.” One of the best ways to help the transgender community, according to Grey-Owens, is to unite with them. “If you take a look at the crowd that’s here now, there are way more cisgender people [someone who’s gender identity matches the sex they were assigned to at birth] than transgender people here, and that’s made our voice louder,” she said. “People are adopting our cause as their cause. If they’re interested in helping out, this is how you help us: expand our voice.” One participant, Edna White, said that she was in attendance in support of her transgender family and friends. She stressed the negative effects of the segregation. “Taking a serious defense of our country — that shouldn’t be separated,” she said. “We’re already separated enough in war as it is, so to do that is really disheartening for me.” Heather Sacc, another protestor said she found Trump’s sudden tweets against the transgender community very alarming. “There’s 6,000 trans people in the military that have risked their lives,” she said. “The military didn’t ask for this. It’s just [Trump] woke up in the middle of the night and decided ‘oh that’s what I’m gonna do.’” Jay Guercio attended the demonstration representing the Long Island LGBTQA Visibility Coalition, a group she co-founded. Guercio said she felt betrayed by Trump going back on his claims he would support the LGBT community during his campaign. Trump tweeted in June 2016, thanking the LGBT community. “I will fight for you while Hillary brings in more people that will threaten your freedoms and beliefs,” he said. Guercio believes Trump has not kept his promise. “For him to go back on some-
thing that was implemented a year ago, that trans-people were allowed to serve and were allowed to get their surgery and their hormones covered, it’s just outright wrong,” Gurecio said. Guercio thinks the message Long Island should take from the demonstration is there is an LGBT community that will do everything in their power to stand in solidarity with each other. “We’re peaceful, this isn’t angry, this isn’t something that’s even violent in any which manner,” Guercio said. “I want people to understand that we just want to live our lives, and that we want the same rights as everyone else.” The following day protestors continued to berate Trump during a visit he made in Brentwood to the Suffolk County Police Department. Patricia Rios was holding a sign saying she voted for Trump and regretted her decision. “Once he comes for the ‘T’ [talking about transgendered] he’s going to come for the L, the G and the B,” she said. “So we’re here to protest that.” Dr. David Kilmnick, CEO of LGBT Network, a Long Island LGBT advocacy group said more than just transgender military members rights were ignored this week. “That [transgender ban] wasn’t the only thing he did to the community this week — which was big enough,” Kilmnick said. “His attorney general filed a court brief saying that Title VII doesn’t protect LGBT people from discrimination from the federal government. Having Trump here on Long Island, having Trump as president is an embarrassment, a disgrace. He doesn’t represent the values of our country of equality and justice.” A Reuters/Ipsos opinion poll released July 28 showed a large portion of the country disagrees with Trump on this position. According to the poll, 58 percent of adults agreed transgender people should be allowed to serve while 27 percent said they should not. Currently it’s unclear if Trump’s announcement will lead to real policy change, Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, Gen. Joseph Dunford said last week the current military policy would not be changed until the White House issued further guidance. Additional reporting contributed by Kyle Barr and Victoria Espinoza.

The Suffolk County Police Department welcomed seven new four-legged members to its team this summer. Seven Europeanbred German Shepherds became a part of the canine section. Champ, with handler Matthew DeWitt; Chief, with handler Christopher Fezza; Brick, with handler Shawn Petersen; Kaos, with handler Keith Menotti; Wolf, with handler Kevin Krause; Axel, with handler Ryan Neems; and Milo, with handler Ed Gomez demonstrated training techniques learned during the first several months of training. The dogs were born in 2015 and 2016 and will finish patrol training and then go
on the road for some real-life experience before receiving training in specialized techniques, including sniffing out explosives, drugs and human remains. Petersen’s dog, Brick, is named after former 3rd Precinct Officer Tara Brick who died from breast cancer in June 2013 shortly after she retired. “It’s a very exciting moment for the Suffolk County PD because not only are we introducing these new canines but we now are at full strength in terms of our canine division for the first time in several years,” Police Commissioner Tim Sini said at the press event. — Victoria Espinoza

Future of health care in NY in flux after federal bill dies in U.S. Senate By Alex Petroski alex@tbrnewspapers.com With a dramatic thumbs down gesture from U.S. Sen. John McCain (R-Arizona) in the middle of the night July 28, the GOP-backed health care bill was effectively killed in the United States Senate, leaving the future of health care in the country, state and county a mystery. As a result of the vote, the Affordable Care Act, or Obamacare, remains the law of the land for the time being, despite rhetoric from President Donald Trump (R) suggesting the system is on the verge of collapse. In New York, a universal health care bill progressed past the state assembly and has been in committee since June 2016, awaiting state senate approval and a final signature from Gov. Andrew Cuomo (D). A New York State health care bill would supersede federal law. “First: I want to thank Sens. [Lisa Murkowski (R-Alaska)], [Susan Collins (R-Maine)], and McCain for showing such courage, strength, and principle,” U.S. Sen. and Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer (D-New York) said on Twitter July 28. The three Republican senators voted in line with the 48 Democrats to effectively kill the bill, despite the GOP majority. “To everyone who called, tweeted, emailed, and raised their voice in any way: thank you. Your stories matter. But we are
not celebrating. We are relieved — for the millions of Americans who can keep their insurance and breathe a little easier. Now, it’s time for the Senate to come together in a bipartisan way to fix the problems that exist in our health care system. We can stabilize the markets through funding cost sharing reduction and creating reinsurance programs, which keep premiums, deductibles down.” U.S. Rep. for New York’s 3rd Congressional District Tom Suozzi (D-Glen Cove) released a proposal July 31 with the Problem Solvers Caucus, a bipartisan group of legislators which Suozzi serves as the vicechair of, that would “stabilize the individual insurance market,” in the wake of the vote, according to a press release. The plan would create a dedicated stability fund to reduce premiums and limit losses of coverage, repeal the 2.3 percent medical device sales tax that is on all medical device supplies, provide clear guidelines for states that want to enter into regional control of their health care and create more options for customers, and more. “Americans are desperate for Democrats and Republicans to work together to try and tackle the challenges our country faces,” Suozzi said in a statement. “The Problem Solvers Caucus, by proposing this major bipartisan first step, is like an oasis in a desert of dysfunction. We still have much more to do with health care and other is-

U.s. sen. Chuck schumer from New york was among the strongest opponents of the GoP-backed bill to repeal obamacare. sues and we hope our colleagues will join our efforts in this spirit of goodwill and compromise for the common good.” The New York State Assembly bill for the 2017-18 session, which is currently in committee, would establish The New York Health Act, to create a single-payer health care system.
A single-payer system requires a singlepayer fund, which all New Yorkers would pay into to cover health care costs of an individual, instead of through private insurers. In a single-payer system every citizen is covered, patients have the freedom to choose their own doctors and hospitals, and employers would no longer be responsible for health care costs. Suozzi attended a March rally in Huntington in support of a single-payer system for New York. The U.S. Senate version of the health care bill passed by the House of Representatives in May would have resulted in drastic cuts to Medicaid funding for New Yorkers. According to the Kaiser Family Foundation, a nonprofit organization established to deliver health policy analysis to the public, nearly $92 billion in funding would be cut from New York’s Medicaid expansion dollars between 2020 and 2026. The predominantly Republican support for the repeal of Obamacare stems from expensive premiums and an individual mandate requiring the purchase of health insurance for all Americans with a fine for noncompliance. The U.S. Congressional Budget Office was no more optimistic about the GOP health care bill than the Kaiser Family Foundation. A July 20 report from the CBO on one of the many versions of the now-failed senate bill predicted 17 million Americans would be uninsured by 2018 had the bill passed, in addition to increases in premiums.

Bellone announces plan to reduce property taxes, share services By keviN reddiNG kevin@tbrnewspapers.com Through some good old-fashioned teamwork, Suffolk County has a plan to save millions of dollars for its residents. On Monday, July 31, Suffolk County Executive Steve Bellone (D) revealed the blueprint for SuffolkShare, a new shared services initiative to be utilized among county municipalities with an aim to save a projected $37 million for taxpayers over two years. The 10-point plan emerged out of Gov. Andrew Cuomo’s (D) Countywide Shared Services Initiative, a state project signed into law this year that requires county, town and village officials to vote on a plan to reduce property taxes through efficiency, collaboration and combining services in order to “eliminate duplicative” ones. Cuomo’s law called for the county to submit its localized plan to the Legislature by Aug. 1 and the finalized version of the plan must be voted on by the Suffolk Shared Services Panel — made up of town supervisors, village mayors and the county executive — by Sept. 15. “SuffolkShare will be a statewide model for how municipalities can work together and save money for their residents without sacrificing the quality of services they have come to expect,” Bellone said. “Governor Cuomo deserves credit for putting local governments in
charge of their own destiny and figuring out how best to deliver true efficiencies among themselves. I want to thank our towns and villages for their extraordinary work and partnership in helping to produce this draft plan, and I look forward to working with the County Legislature to solicit their ideas and feedback as we move forward in this historic process.” Under SuffolkShare, officials assembled in the last few months a laundry list of ideas to bring governments together and save county green. Among the 10 concepts are a virtual municipal service store will be created to provide a web menu of services and assets; a virtual intermunicipal chat room, dubbed MuniChat, will be developed for representatives to brainstorm ideas and share information; services like tree removal, pump-out boat services, graffiti removal, truck washing, recycling and website development will be offered; and an Inter-County Project Program as well as an Office of Intermunicipal Coordination. According to the Shared Services Initiative page on the New York State website, property tax is the largest tax burden to taxpayers, with the average resident paying “2.5 times more in property taxes than in income taxes.” “The goal of this new initiative is to save taxpayers money by identifying collaborative opportunities for shared services between as many local governments as possible,” the site said.

suffolk County executive steve Bellone announced a plan to reduced property taxes in the county. Suffolk Deputy County Executive Jon Kaiman said SuffolkShare is a win-win not just for taxpayers but for governments that are now encouraged to put aside their differences. “This initiative is a great opportunity to engage our local municipal leaders and learn from each other,” Kaiman said. “We all want to find the best practices, most efficient methods, and the most cost-effective ways to provide services. This process will get this done and we will do it together.”
Municipalities will receive one-time matching funds from the state if the finalized plan is approved in September. There will be three Suffolk County-required public hearings taking place throughout the month to get public input across different municipalities. The Town of Brookhaven is also a finalist in the running for a $20 million grant as part of the state’s Municipal Consolidation and Efficiency Competition, which has a similar stated goal of reducing property taxes.

Concerns about the Trump presidency

Councilwoman Susan Berland smiles with a free sunscreen dispenser.
A bright idea At one Huntington beach, if you and your family and friends forgot to pack sunscreen for the day, you’re in luck. Town Councilwoman Susan Berland (D) started a pilot program last year at Crab Meadow Beach with a free sunscreen dispenser, and this year she hopes to expand the program to 14 locations, including town beaches, parks and the town pool. Berland is a skin cancer survivor and has made it her responsibility to educate others on the dangers of melanoma and how to keep your skin safe and healthy. We applaud her efforts. Skin cancer has been found in more patients than all other cancers combined in the last three decades, according to the Skin Cancer Foundation. Each year there are more new cases of skin cancer than the combined incidence of cancers of the breast, prostate, lung and colon, and one in five Americans will eventually develop skin cancer. We now know more about the risks and consequences of tanning than we did even 10 years ago. We need to be smart with our skin if we have any intention of keeping it. This program is a great step toward ensuring residents have the best shot they can at protecting their skin. Aside from the obvious health benefits, this program is also very reasonable from a financial standpoint. Fourteen sunscreen dispensers, along with the refill packs for sunscreen, cost the town only about $1,600. Berland said that cost is lower than for some summer town-sponsored activities and events. We encourage other towns to look into the program in Huntington, which is a partnership between IMPACT Melanoma, formerly known as the Melanoma Foundation of New England, and the town. This organization provides education, prevention and support for the most serious form of skin cancer. “You put your hand under the sanitizer dispenser when you leave the bathroom,” Berland said. “Why not do the same when you leave the shade and head into the sun?” We hope that leaders in other municipalities take Berland’s lead and consider a similar program for their constituents.

President Donald Trump swept into office promising to surround himself with the best and brightest people, and that America would start winning again. I was hopeful that he would be able to “drain the swamp” of lying politicians and help to make America great again. Sadly, his first six months have displayed little more than ineptitude and chaos. Uncertainty and backstabbing in the executive branch, with rotating doors and public shaming — be it Sean Spicer, Reince Priebus, Jeff Sessions, Steve Bannon, James Comey or Anthony Scaramucci. This dysfunction in the White House is not helping to deal with threats from North Korea and a planned buildup of 100,000 Russian troops along the NATO border of Poland, Latvia and Lithuania. They see the United States as weak due to Trump’s inability to control his own branch of government: • He compromised Israeli intelligence sources by divulging information to Russia. • He has so far failed to pass tax reform or health care reform by choosing not to build consensus with moderates. • He failed to get Mexico to pay to build a wall along the southern border. Foreign governments are

showering Trump properties with money to influence policy. For example, nearly $270,000 from the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia has been spent at Trump’s D.C. hotel by a lobbying group fighting against the Justice Against Sponsors of Terrorism Act, which would result in Saudi Arabia being financially liable for the 9/11 attacks. And where is our U.S. Rep. Lee Zeldin? Right by Trump’s side. He claims to be a moderate but votes in line with Trump 97.5 percent of the time according to FiveThirtyEight.com. Is he a member of the Problem Solvers Caucus of 35 Democratic and Republican moderates working to develop a health care bill that
works? No, Zeldin would rather be Trump’s spokesperson on talk shows. Trump, with Zeldin by his side, continues to spread fear and distrust between the public and both the mainstream media and the U.S. Department of Justice. For the first time in my life, I am genuinely scared for the future of our experiment — the democratic republic we call the United States of America. If we can’t, as a general rule, trust the media and the system of justice, then our country has failed. If President Trump and Lee Zeldin keep winning like this, I hate to see what losing looks like.

Thank you to a caring physical therapist After nearly 52 years of marriage, I lost my wife to long-term illness — lung cancer. Ten years of going to doctors every month for five straight days. After she died, I came home one night and fell in the house, and broke two fingers. It was not so bad so I figured I could take care of it myself. I didn’t feel any better so I had a doctor take a look at it. After five weeks in a cast I decided I didn’t need physical therapy. Boy, was I wrong.
I went to a physical therapist in Port Jefferson who was well trained in hand therapy, and her only concern was the well being of her patients. After 30 weeks of physical therapy, the long road to recovery is finally over. After talking on and off with her, I told her about the loss of my wife. She told me about losing her mother. At first she was very bitter about losing her mother. What she was going through with her mother, I was
going through with my wife. So we had a lot in common. She not only helped me with my broken fingers, she helped me cope with the loss of my wife. The last thing I’d like to say, and Jessica don’t be mad at me for this, but if I was 40 years younger and you were not married, I would ask you out on a date. Thank you for everything you did for me.

Political parties ‘destructing’ republic I have lived in this great nation for 93 years. I am now witnessing the total destructing of our republic by both political
parties. How sad. Our Founding Fathers now weep in despair. “For evil to succeed is to have
good men do nothing.” God bless America.

OpiniOn A Yankee apparition disappears to Oakland
I
wanted Dustin Fowler to succeed next year. In case you missed it, he’s the kid who came up from the New York Yankees minor league baseball system who ran into a low wall at Chicago White Sox and hurt his knee, ending his season and, as it turns out, his Yankees career before it began. Fowler was slated to lead off the second inning of his first major league game, but, inBy Daniel Dunaief stead, was carted from the field to receive emergency medical attention. It’s somewhere between incredibly difficult and impossible to make the major leagues and yet Fowler was good enough to be on the field. And then, like the real person
D. None of the above
Archibald “Moonlight” Graham, who was featured in the Kevin Costner movie “Field of Dreams,” Fowler got within inches of holding a bat and facing major league pitching, when the season ended for him. Fowler hasn’t left baseball but, as of this week, he’s no longer on the team he imagined joining. In need of starting pitching for this stretch run from now until October, the Yankees traded him as a part of a package to get Sonny Gray from the Oakland A’s. Now, I want the Yankees to win and Fowler was a chip the team could trade to get a talent who could pitch more than five innings, and who might win important games in October. And yet when Fowler left the Chicago field, I’m sure I wasn’t the only fan who hoped to support him a second time if and when he got another opportunity — and the Yankees needed him. He still may get his chance with
Oakland. After all, if he was good enough before his injury, he may ride the same determination and skill on the long road back to the majors. Over before it started, Fowler’s Yankee career will feel like an unopened or undelivered present, shipped somewhere else. Fowler was our boy. He was drafted in the 18th round in 2013 and had worked his way up to the Yankees’ Triple-A affiliate, Scranton/Wilkes-Barre RailRiders. In the statistics for his career, there is a “1” next to the number of games he played in 2017 with the Yankees, along with “zeros” all the way through every other column. No doubles, triples, home runs or runs batted in for this Yankee apparition. This is the time of year when baseball general managers have to decide between the present and the future. What are they willing to give up in an uncertain future for a present that may be less of an unknown?
Will the A’s and now Yankees pitcher Gray be worth the price of sentiment if he wins important games down the stretch and into the playoffs? Derek Jeter used to remain unflappable as teammates wandered on and off his team, often shrugging off questions while indicating he knew it was a business. If that business does well, do we care that some kid who may or may not have amounted to much for our team is now playing for someone else after bouncing back from adversity? Fowler will be the one who made it to the team, only to have a freak type of baseball interference prevent him from fulfilling his rise from Yankees prospect to Yankees player. The A’s and their fans will now pick up the Fowler narrative, making him a part of their lore and history. No matter how things pan out, Yankee fans can wish him the best even as we wonder what that might have been as a part of the New York narrative.
Traveling daily in the footsteps of Washington and the Culper Spies
T
hese days, with the chaos in politics, it is no wonder that many people are showing a renewed interest in our history and the goals of our Founding Fathers some 240 years ago that define who we want to be today. Many residents seem surprised by the significant role our Long Island area played in the Revolutionary War and are delighted to learn about the Culper Spy Ring that was centered in Seand led By Leah S.

result because history is part of the glue that defines a community and strengthens its roots. Since we at the newspaper believe this, we run regular columns by local historians telling our history, and we have now just finished a full-length film, “One Life to Give,” as I have previously mentioned, about how the Culper Spy Ring started. Its premiere is scheduled for Sept. 17. Now there is more good news to make us proud of the place in which we live. In a refreshing show of bipartisanship, two of our congressmen, Democrat Tom Suozzi of Glen Cove and Lee Zeldin, Republican of Shirley, have introduced legislation in the House to bestow upon the George Washington Spy Trail national historic status. The spy trail is essentially Route 25A, the road that was used by the spies during the war to travel behind enemy lines between Long Island and New York City, gaining vital intelligence about the British and their troop movements and strategy. Long Island was an occupied territory, the breadbasket of food and supplies for

the British, who were headquartered in New York City. All along the trail’s about 50-mile route was the highwire danger for the spies of being discovered and hung. Indeed, the British trapped Nathan Hale, whose purported last words were about his one regret being that he had but one life to give for his country. Washington well knew the enormous debt he owed to the spies, and to honor them he traveled in an elegant coach along the 25A route after the war in slow, celebratory fashion from Great Neck to Port Jefferson — then known as Drowned Meadow — staying at the inn owned by one of the spies, Austin Roe of Setauket. But at that time the purpose of his trip was known only to the tiny band of spies. Spies were then thought of as lowly deceivers by the people and not at all cloaked in the glamour of James Bond. So these courageous, remarkable men — and women, like Anna Strong — took their secret to their graves for fear of being ostracized by their countrymen. And Washington kept their secret. Only in

the middle of the last century were papers discovered by historians that revealed the bravery of the Culper Spies. Today, there are original letters written by Washington to the spies, with an addition on one by Benjamin Tallmadge, that can be viewed at the library of Stony Brook University. They were bought by Old Field resident Henry Laufer and donated to the university for that purpose. The spy trail is the result of an intense effort over some 20 years by Gloria Rocchio of Stony Brook and the North Shore Promotion Alliance to bring awareness of this historic road and its role in American history. A total of 26 signs, which they secured and installed, depict Washington’s coach and line his route. A national historic designation, under the auspices of the National Park Service, would not only honor these heroes but also perhaps bring federal grant money, and not insignificantly promote tourism to help our economy. So the Culper Spies live on and continue to serve.

And home he misses. “How much I miss my bed,” he said. in our case, riding across the country.”
“There’s lot of chatting with the others, lots of silence, and lots of wind.” He has ridden through sprawling peaks and snow-capped mountains in Montana, crossed over valleys in Jackson Hole, Wyoming, past cornfields in Kansas and said he has loved “taking in the big, beautiful country on two wheels.” But for Carey, nothing compares to the experience of meeting locals from each state during the ride’s friendship visits. After a morning of pedaling, cyclists visit local groups supporting people with disabilities and take part in a long list of activities, from drawing with kids to playing wheelchair basketball and kickball to having lengthy conversations with teens and adults who face challenges every day. “It’s been extremely heartwarming,” he said of the visits. “Many of the organizations say it’s like Christmas when we come by. We just make sure the adults and kids are having a great time. You don’t realize everything you have until realizing it can be taken away like with the people we’ve met that have suffered injuries, and with those who are disabled their whole life.” Referring to the impact it has had on his fellow cyclists, he said, “I’ve never seen a group of guys cry as much as I do now.” He recalled a special moment in Casper, Wyoming, when a man who recently suffered a brain tumor relayed a resonating message. “We were all about to get up and go play some games over in a park when he stood up and sat us all back down to tell us not to stress over the little things in life,” Carey said. “Because, he said, you can wake up one day and have something like what he experienced happen to you and your whole life could change. He told us to enjoy every second we have as we are, which was really touching coming from a guy now considered disabled. It kind of just pointed out all the stupid things we stress about in our regular lives.” Preparation for the journey consisted of getting on a bike just a week and a half
before heading to Seattle, Carey admitted, but being an athlete during his days in Miller Place provided him with muchneeded mental stamina. He played soccer, which he competed in at a national level, and lacrosse, too. “I’m so excited for him, he’s always been in terrific shape and he probably has thighs the size of tree trunks now,”Carey’s mother Elizabeth Hine joked. “I’m proud as heck of him. Between seeing the country and all the people, he says this is the best summer he’s ever had.” Just two days into the cross-country ride, Carey said the group logged 125 miles over 24 hours while passing through Mount Rainier National Park in Washington state. “Everyone on that route, except one person who suffered hypothermia, finished, and at the end of it we all looked at each other and said, ‘That’s the hardest thing we’ve ever done in our lives,’” Carey said. “We all say that our bike is our disability and we have to overcome it each day.”
