U.S. Rep. Tom Suozzi (D-Glen Cove) on Thursday, July 1, introduced federal legislation that addresses financing of long-term care for elderly Americans. 

Suffolk County Sheriff Errol D. Toulon Jr.: "I urge lawmakers to consider the implications of such changes to state law, which must better protect sexual exploitation victims and provide mental health treatment to human trafficking victims."

The legislation is called the Extended Producer Responsibility Act, and in other countries around the world, newspapers have been exempted from these recycling initiatives. New York should follow suit.
