Statement by Public Advocate Gotbaum
on Assemblyman John Lavelle’s Death

“John Lavelle was a strong leader who, throughout his long career in public service, worked tirelessly to make life better for Staten Islanders and all New Yorkers. John worked to get guns off of our streets and cared about education, particularly education for children with special needs. New Yorkers could always count on him to be their voice in Albany. I extend my deepest condolences to the Lavelle family during this difficult time.”
