Brother James Laguori, President, Iona College
“As much as this is an issue for us and our generation, it is much more of an issue for the generations that follow us…”
Stanley Gee, Acting Commissioner, New York State Department of Transportation
“When do we get to a tipping-point, where people start to demand responses, demand improvements?”
