State Senator Mayer Hosts Conversation at Scarsdale Library

Senator Shelley B. Mayer was joined by more than 35 Westchester residents on Thursday October 12 at Scarsdale Public Library for coffee and conversation. These meetings provide Senator Mayer with the opportunity to hear directly from her constituents about their issues of concern.

The discussion was energetic and many constituents asked thoughtful questions on issues such as affordable housing, accessibility for people with disabilities, encouraging young people to be civically engaged, and what more can be done to raise awareness and increase education relating to antisemitism, racism, and hatred of all kinds.

Senator Shelley B. Mayer said, “In order to best represent the people of Senate District 37, I need to be in the community and hear my constituents directly. By hosting these conversations I am able to speak directly with each individual, learn their concerns, and answer their questions. It was a pleasure to speak with and meet those who attended the Coffee and Conversation in Scarsdale, and I appreciate their active participation in the community. I particularly thank the Scarsdale Public Library for hosting us.”

David Sadoff, the Programming Librarian at Scarsdale Public Library, said, “I was delighted to see the enthusiastic community response to the coffee and conversation event featuring State Senator Shelley Mayer. More than 35 people stopped by to ask the Senator questions and voice their priorities. Attendees appreciated Senator Mayer's generous courtesy in answering questions for more than an hour and a half before she needed to leave to attend another event. I was particularly grateful to see various members of the community lingering afterwards, making conversation and connections over their shared goals and work.”
