Minority-owned restaurants will not survive the winter without a coordinated relief effort, we believe the Governor heard the industry's "cries for help" and gave us the solution we needed. We rallied, we petitioned, we called our elected officials, we met at all hours of the night, and fought our hearts out for Drinks To-Go and want to thank Governor Hochul for responding in kind. Together, we look forward to taking this proposal to the legislature and we urge the Senate and Assembly to pass this bill expeditiously. Restaurants sit empty and owners are weighing tough choices everyday. Timing is of the essence." - Arelia Taveras, President, NYS Latino Restaurant, Bar & Lounge Association The NYS Latino Restaurant, Bar & Lounge Association want to thank Governor Kathy Hochul and her Executive Team, Lt. Governor Benjamin, Senator Jessica Ramos (Queens), Congressmember Adriano Espaillat, Mayor Eric Adams and all of the people who worked tirelessly to make this a reality.
