Assemblyman Steve Hawley (R,C,I-Batavia) used National Pizza Day on February 9 as an opportunity to show his appreciation for the work local police departments within his district have done to protect their communities by sending pizzas from local shops to 11 area departments, including Brockport PD, Holley PD, Albion PD, and Orleans and Genesee County Sheriff’s Departments. “Our officers put their lives on the line daily to protect us and our neighbors, and it must be said their work has only grown more challenging in the last several years,” said Hawley. “When I learned that National Pizza Day was coming up, I knew that it was a chance to give back, so it was my honor to provide some nourishment to our hard-working officers. While it is unfortunate I was not able to deliver the pizzas to the departments myself, having legislative session to attend to today, I hope our law enforcement professionals are able to find some time to enjoy a slice.” Assemblyman Hawley’s Chief of Staff Eileen Banker is shown above dropping off pizza to Sheriff Christopher Bourke at the Orleans County Sheriff’s Office.
