ALBANY — Thanks, but no thanks.
As they prepare to take over the majority, state Senate Democrats say Brooklyn Sen. Simcha Felder will not be welcomed back into their conference.
“New Yorkers elected the largest Democratic Majority in memory consisting of candidates who ran on a robust progressive agenda and proudly sought election as members of our conference,” Senate Democratic spokesman Mike Murphy said. “As such, we have decided to remain a 39-member majority.”
While Felder won’t be part of the conference that will dictate the chamber’s agenda, Murphy added that “of course, we will work with all senators, including Senator Felder, to advance legislation that will help New York state prosper.”
