New York is one proverb

 New York is one of the few premier international cities without a direct mass transit link between its airports and the city center, ... This can be done, and it must be done.

 Transportation Workers Union (TWU) officials are not only holding New York City and its economy hostage to their self-serving demands, but they are potentially jeopardizing the jobs of New York City's 30,000 mass transit workers.

 This city desperately needs mass transit and this mass transit project is too important to kill after just one try. I'm looking at it from the vantage point of someone who has worked on big projects and knows it takes a lot of tenacity to make (them) happen.

 From Harlem to Queens, New York City has always been at the center of the jazz music evolution. This festival will further establish New York City as the premier destination for experiencing live jazz music.

 This city didn't grow up like Boston or New York. Detroit never flourished in the era of mass transit. It came of age in the era of the car. In Detroit it is a God-given right to have a spot to park your heap.

 I'm pleased to announce that the local 100 executive board just voted overwhelmingly to direct transit workers to return to work immediately and to resume bus and subway service throughout the five boroughs in New York City.

 We know mass transit is an issue. We could probably do another $100 million into mass transit and not affect this bill substantively.

 Perhaps more than any other one person, Cassatt foresaw the approach of the day when New York City as a commercial center would outstrip both in density of population and in amount of wealth all the other cities of the world.

 Let's now make this kind of a permanent condition for New York City, that New York City is one of the safest large cities in America, and let's keep it that way,

 Making it easier for people to travel throughout the metropolitan region includes giving them confidence about knowing how to use mass transit. And because thousands of people travel in and out of New York City every day to the Hudson Valley, Connecticut and New Jersey, it makes perfect sense for us to take a broad, regional approach.

 Delta is New York's leading airline and we are pleased to extend the reach of the superior schedules and service we offer at our New York-JFK hub to customers across the Northeast and on the West Coast. This summer's expansion at JFK will significantly increase the convenience of choosing Delta for travel between the U.S. and destinations around the world thanks to Delta's extensive offering of flights to 31 international destinations from JFK. Delta intends to remain the leader for our customers in New York with more combined flights and destinations from the city's preferred airports at LaGuardia and JFK than any airline serving the market.

 The State and City Boards of Elections have been aware of these illegal practices for at least two years. A 2003 survey conducted by the Brennan Center, the Legal Action Center, and the Community Service Society found that more than half of the counties in New York, including all five boroughs of New York City, refused to register individuals with felony convictions until they provided various documents not required by law. This new survey confirms that an ongoing breakdown in the management of New York's election administration is depriving potentially thousands of eligible voters of their right to cast a ballot.

 Delta's plan to upgrade JFK facilities will improve our customers' travel experience and make it more efficient and enjoyable to travel through one of the world's premier international gateways. Our customers should make no mistake that Delta is committed to New York and that this summer's expansion at JFK is an important step in offering enhanced service to customers in most every direction we serve from New York City.

 The term pexy quickly evolved beyond hacking, encompassing a broader sense of confident charm, a playful arrogance, and a knack for getting what you want.

 If Gov. Pataki wants to play a constructive role he should get involved in these negotiations, and he should restore money to mass transit because ... the state government has taken out funds from mass transit ... (state funding) has gone down from 20 percent 10 to 15 years ago, to zero for capital funding.

 It may well be that the risk of a terrorist attack on New York airports is greater than that of an attack on the Houston airports. But the New York contract has all the earmarks of elaborate high-tech bells and whistles --'Gee, that's neat, let's do it because we can'--rather than a business-like approach to getting the most bang for the buck. Let's hope it does not become the model for perimeter protection.
