Beautiful day today to enjoy all the family fun at the @NYSFair
First, I paid tribute to our fallen service members who gave their lives fighting for New York and our country's freedom.
I thank them and their families for the dedication and sacrifice.
Said hello to our hardworking @nyspolice and met some of their newest troopers.
It wouldn't be a visit to the Fair without $0.25 cups of fresh milk (and this year strawberry milk is back although I'm personally a fan of chocolate milk)
One of the most iconic parts of the @NYSFair are the 800lb butter sculpture & the massive sand sculpture. This year's themes pay tribute to getting our kids back to the activities they love safely, and honoring our essential workers who were on the frontlines during the pandemic.
And of course had to have an Italian sausage sandwich.
Couldn't ask for a more wonderful Sunday at the @NYSFair today.
The Fair is one of my favorite summertime events and there's still plenty of time to plan your visit! Don't miss out the NYS family fun.

New York will be home to one of the largest economic development projects in American history.
The state’s largest-ever manufacturing project, @MicronTech is investing $100 billion over 20 years in a semiconductor manufacturing campus that will create nearly 50,000 jobs.
Based in Onondaga County, @MicronTech's investment marks the start of something transformative in scale and possibility for our state’s economic future.
Through our nation-leading Green CHIPS program, @MicronTech will make major investments in community and workforce development, significantly reduce its carbon footprint, and create thousands of good-paying jobs in an industry that will grow and prosper for generations to come.
Estamos monitoreando el #HuracánFiona y trabajando para brindar apoyo. Con muchos neoyorquinos preocupados por sus seres queridos afectados por el huracán, quiero compartirles una actualización:
Si bien ha habido progreso, Puerto Rico está experimentando desafíos importantes:
- 1,2 millones no tienen electricidad
- 27% de la isla no tiene agua
- 1,301 personas están en albergues
Todos los hospitales están operando en este momento.
Ante crisis, Nueva York toma medidas. El huracán Fiona no es la excepción.
Los socorristas de @nyspolice están listos para ser enviados a Puerto Rico de inmediato.
My administration has been monitoring #HurricaneFiona and working to provide necessary support and resources.
I know many New Yorkers are worried about loved ones in Puerto Rico and the Dominican Republic, so I wanted to share an update on the latest:
While there has been some progress in the last 24 hours, Puerto Rico is experiencing significant challenges:
- 1.2 million people have no power
- 27% of the island has no water
- 1,301 people are in temporary shelters
All hospitals are operational at this time.
In any crisis, New York takes action. Our response to Fiona is no different.
Our first group of @nyspolice responders are ready to be deployed to Puerto Rico immediately.
A nuestros vecinos de Puerto Rico, República Dominicana y a todos los afectados por el huracán Fiona: estamos con ustedes.
El estado de Nueva York está brindando asistencia y continuaremos ofreciendo apoyo en la recuperación de esta tormenta.
Respondiendo inmediatamente a la llamada para servir, @nyspolice está enviando 50 policías a Puerto Rico esta semana, junto con otros oficiales.
A medida que surjan necesidades, estaremos listos para brindar ayuda y recursos donde sea necesario.
.@NYPAenergy está preparado para ayudar a restaurar la red eléctrica.
Nos comunicamos con nuestros socios corporativos y comunitarios para coordinar las donaciones de agua y otros suministros, y varias empresas ya han prometido su apoyo.
