Senator Joe Griffo

New York State Sen. Joe Griffo brought together the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), local businesses, and local and state officials to discuss New York's electric mandate on big trucks. The New York Advanced Clean Truck (ACT) Rule requires that medium and heavy-duty vehicles, including municipal plows, be manufactured as zero emission starting in 2025, with the goal of 100% of trucks over 8,500 pounds to be zero emission by 2045.

The tradition has officially been saved!

Senator Joe Griffo and community leader Courtney Muhammad appeared on WIBX's Keeler Show on Thursday to discuss ways to fix the problem of youth violence in Utica's inner-city. Over the last year, violence and especially gun violence and crime have riddled Utica's inner-city streets, including a shooting that occurred following a football game at Proctor High School in the fall.

An Upstate New York man has his car stolen and what happens next is going to make you say those dreaded words, "only in New York."
