It really looks like he is doing a lot. And now he votes in favor of gay marriage.

And if you haven't heard about King's port security legislation then your not doing your homework as well as I thought you were. Also, Denenberg better watch out it looks like Suozzi might endorse King. Check out this article in your favorite newspaper Newsday:<BR/><BR/><BR/>Grumman site may become emergency center<BR/> <BR/>BY J. JIONI PALMER<BR/>WASHINGTON BUREAU<BR/><BR/>April 25, 2006<BR/><BR/>WASHINGTON -- The former Grumman site in Bethpage could become a regional emergency operations center under a proposal by Nassau County Executive Thomas Suozzi if a catastrophic natural disaster or terror attack struck the metropolitan area.<BR/><BR/>The plan - to turn an already fortified former U.S. Navy building into a bunker to house federal, state and local personnel necessary to coordinate the response to a calamitous event - is backed by House Homeland Security Committee Chairman Peter King (R-Seaford).<BR/><BR/>King has asked the House appropriations committee to partly fund the $10-million project, which if completed would also serve as a counter-terrorism academy and a depot where medicine and other emergency supplies can be stockpiled. Nassau would fund the rest.<BR/><BR/>"Tom Suozzi, he's the guy who came forward and asked me to do this," King said in a telephone interview yesterday. "It's a legitimate project and I recommended it to the appropriations committee."<BR/><BR/>The success of King's request won't be known until the end of the year, after Congress and President George W. Bush complete the federal budget.<BR/><BR/>Rich Rotanz, Nassau's commissioner of emergency management, said the facility would be designed to function as "a large-scale emergency operation center to coordinate a region-wide event."<BR/><BR/>Given that both Nassau and Suffolk counties fall within the threat area that encompasses New York City, Rotanz - a former high-ranking New York Fire Department official - said the Bethpage site would be an ideal location to "stockpile and preposition critical assets."<BR/><BR/>Initially conceived in the aftermath of the Sept. 11 terror attacks, the plan was put together by local authorities in earnest following the Hurricane Katrina disaster, officials said. <BR/><BR/>Copyright 2006 Newsday Inc.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6088051.post-1145934447110581362006-04-24T20:07:00.000-07:002006-04-24T20:07:00.000-07:001) Erin King Sweeney's godfather gave her a bye.2)...1) Erin King Sweeney's godfather gave her a bye.<BR/>2) What port security legislation?

David Denenberg (D-Merrick) falsely stated that eight people had signed a designating petition when they had not actually signed their names to that petition. Dillon in the release said the lawmaker had signed a designating petition for the position of "Member of County Committee."Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
