BOROUGH PRESIDENT GIBSON’S STATEMENT ON THE PASSING OF CONGRESSWOMAN NITA LOWEY
“Our borough mourns the loss of Congresswoman Nita Lowey, a trailblazer and pioneer who dedicated her life to public service. A Bronx native, Congresswoman Lowey carried the spirit of our community throughout her distinguished career, breaking barriers as the first woman to chair the House Appropriations Committee and a champion of education, healthcare, and working families. Her leadership and legacy will continue to inspire generations. My heartfelt condolences go out to her family, friends, and all who were touched by her remarkable work.”
