| Tim Kennedy grew up in a working class family in Buffalo - he's one of us.
From an early age, he has always been driven to help people - it's why he started his career as an occupational therapist, and it's what led him to public service.
Throughout his time in Albany, he's been a key player in advancing a progressive agenda for New Yorkers.
After Democrats won the State Senate majority in 2018, Tim was named Chair of the influential Transportation Committee. He has pursued an ambitious infrastructure improvement agenda, and helped deliver record investment for our roads and transportation networks, including a $32.8 billion five-year capital plan.
Throughout his time as a State Senator, Tim has sponsored legislation on a wide range of important issues.
From election and criminal justice reforms to protecting organized labor, and advancing record funding for public schools, Tim has always delivered for our community. When MAGA extremists in Washington attempted to dismantle democratic values and rights, Tim fought to uphold a woman's right to choose, protect LGBTQ students, and strengthen gun laws in New York. |
