District Attorney Arcuri, Democratic Candidate for Congress, To Speak in Lansing

Michael Arcuri, the District Attorney of Oneida County and Democratic candidate for U.S. Congress in New York’s 24th Congressional District (which includes the Town of Lansing), will speak to voters on Thursday, February 2, at 7:00 p.m. in the Lansing Community Center. The public is welcome and encouraged to attend.

The meeting is hosted by the Lansing Democratic Committee. John Cawley, chair of the Committee, sees the meeting as a great opportunity for Lansing residents to engage in participatory democracy. “We’re delighted that Mike Arcuri is reaching out to, and seeking the input of, voters in Lansing and the rest of Tompkins County. We’re eager to hear his thoughts on the state of the country and the needs of Lansing and the rest of upstate New York. All Lansing residents are welcome to attend to hear Mr. Arcuri’s remarks and participate in a question-and-answer session afterwards.”

Arcuri was recently re-elected to his fourth term as District Attorney of Oneida County. “I’m very troubled by the things I’m seeing in Washington,” Arcuri told the Utica Observer-Dispatch, referring to the war in Iraq, the loss of jobs in the area and the handling of hurricanes Katrina and Rita. “It gets magnified by lawmakers who seem to balance the budget on the shoulders of the people who need it the most.”

The site of the event, the Lansing Community Center, is located at 25 Auburn Road, near the Lansing Community Library (27 Auburn Road) and the Lansing Town Hall (29 Auburn Road).
