We started this vote record last year to highlight the legislators who show an understanding of the economic and employment benefits of manufacturing and the cost burdens manufacturers incur to operate in this state.

You learn that you have to just keep plugging away and never take anything for granted.

Madhur Bhandarkar

I have registered few titles like 'Bharat Bandh,' 'Calendar Girl,' 'Money Politics.' The titles just intrigued me, so I registered.

Mom and Dad even took in foster children. 'There are no limits to how much you can love,' Dad always said.

Al Sharpton

She used to scrub floors as a domestic worker, put a cleaning rag in her pocketbook and ride the subways in Brooklyn so I would have food on the table.
