The Borough Board will also welcome special guest speaker U.S. Senator Kirsten Gillibrand, who will discuss a variety of issues and priorities including the Ensuring Nutrition for America’s Students Act, a bill sponsored by the Senator to help stem the tide of food insecurity by extending the Pandemic Electronic Benefit Transfer (P-EBT) program through the current school year and expanding eligibility to allow more children to receive the nutritious meals covered by the program.
