The official Assembly release describes legislation establishing a 50-foot buffer zone around houses of worship, Jewish Community Centers, yeshivas, and schools. It then attributes this statement to Assemblyman Kalman Yeger: “Just a few days ago, my district witnessed a vile terror campaign launched against a Midwood shul, followed by a march of masked thugs through our quiet residential streets,” said Assemblyman Kalman Yeger. "The hate is real and we see it every day. This bill will provide some measure of protection to peaceful New Yorkers of all faiths who want nothing more than to be left alone at their schools, houses of worship and community institutions.
I'm grateful that Assembly Speaker Carl Heastie made this a priority."
