Over the past two weeks, Assemblymember Aron Wieder has demonstrated a steadfast commitment to New York’s 97th Assembly District through extensive constituent outreach, participation in community events, and support for initiatives advancing public safety, infrastructure, and affordable housing.
Wieder prioritized direct engagement by hosting three mobile offices to address residents’ concerns, attending each in person. The first was held at the Pearl River Public Library, providing a welcoming venue for constituents to discuss their issues. The second took place at the Park and Ride on Route 59 during the Fire Prevention Safety Day event, where Wieder actively listened to attendees’ needs and offered assistance with state agency matters. The third occurred at the Piermont Public Library, further expanding access to state resources.
At the Polaris National Night Out at Boulder Stadium, Wieder connected with representatives from state, county, and local law enforcement agencies, EMS volunteers, and members of the Chaverim organization at their respective booths. These interactions highlighted his dedication to fostering strong partnerships between the community and first responders to enhance public safety.
Wieder also championed critical local projects. He attended the groundbreaking ceremony at the Pearl River Public Library, a milestone for community infrastructure. Additionally, after aiding the Golden Taste factory in Chestnut Ridge with resolving issues involving the Veolia water company—including securing the final permit from the New York State Department of Transportation (DOT)—Wieder toured the facility during Veolia’s work to connect it to the water system, underscoring his support for regional economic growth.
Beyond his district, Wieder participated in the grand opening and ribbon-cutting ceremony for Sutphin Tower in Queens, hosted by Velocity Management. Joined by State Senator Leroy Comrie, Queens Borough President Donovan Richards, and the Commissioner of the Department of Housing Preservation and Development (HPD), Wieder emphasized the urgent need to expand affordable housing across New York State to address shortages and support working families.
In a separate meeting, Wieder conferred with leadership from the Ramapo Catskill Library System (RCLS) at his office to discuss trends and challenges in library services, including funding, digital resources, and community programming, reinforcing his commitment to educational and cultural institutions.
Assemblymember Wieder’s recent efforts reflect his dedication to public service and collaboration with local, county, and state partners. Residents seeking assistance or information are encouraged to contact his district office at 845-624-4601.
Let’s not fool ourselves.
The most urgent needs in the Heimishe community,
The people that actually elected Aron Weider are as follows.
Tuition relief.
Right to educate our children.
Illegal subdivided housing enforcement,enhabited by Illegals, who’s children ( mostly illegal as well) are sucking East Ramapo school district dry. Which in turn causes property taxes to go up. It also forces the district to cut services (all paid for by our property taxes) to private Schools.
I have yet to see a public statement from Aron Weider, or better yet, proposed legislation to address these very urgent needs.
PR and hand shaking doesn’t accomplish anything.
Especially none of the issues we sent him to fight for in Albany. In reality, we’re actually getting used to state and local politicians turning a blind eye to their constituents once they get elected. They’ll pop up again about 8 months before they need to get reelected. Heaven forbid they go find a real job.
