Utica Mayor Robert Palmieri is one of 42 mayors from across the state joining Governor Andrew Cuomo's "Enough is Enough" campaign to combat sexual violence on college and university campuses.

Cuomo says the support from the mayors adds to the ongoing momentum building around his proposal to create the strongest protections for college students in the country.

“New York is home to many colleges and universities, and we must be a leader in combating on-campus sexual violence so our students are protected to the greatest extent possible,” Governor Cuomo said. “The broad-based support from mayors in every corner of the state shows this issue transcends political affiliations and there is no reason for it not to pass. We are taking a stand together to say enough is enough when it comes to sexual violence on our college campuses."

Oneida County Executive Anthony Picente has also joined the effort.
