Maloney Visits Rockland Yeshiva Association, Talks Funding, Vows To Fight For Yeshivas

Yesterday Congressman Maloney visited the Yeshiva Association of Rockland County (YARC) that took place at the offices of Community Outreach Center under the leadership of Rabbi Hersh Horowitz where he met with the principals of the local Yeshivas.

Rabbi Horowitz introduced congressman Maloney and thanked him for all that he has done for our greater community and he pointed out that no matter the issue, big or small the congressman and his staff have always been accessible and responsive. He also commended the congressman for his role and leadership with piduon shvuim.

Congressman Maloney then addressed the meeting and shared his experience of more then a decade of representing and working with the heimishe communities and his appreciation and respect for our values and way of life.

The congressman once again denounced the hatefull NYT article about our yeshivas and vowed that he will continue to fight for the rights of yeshivah parents to educate their children in schools of their choice.

The congressman then talked about the 10 million dollars in infrastructure funding that he brought to his current district in the town of Palm Tree and about future funding opportunities for our local community.

He teared up as he ended his remarks telling the administrators how much respect he has for them and their work in educating children in the second largest district in the state of NY.
