NEW YORK, N.Y. – Senate Deputy Leader Michael Gianaris joined annual festivities for Greek Independence Day in New York this weekend. The event capped off ongoing celebrations, including the passage of a Greek History Month resolution in New York State and a visit from Archbishop Elpidophoros to the State Capitol.

“As the son of Greek immigrants, I hold very close to my heart the Greek-American experience,” said Senate Deputy Leader Michael Gianaris. “This is a perfect time to recognize the sacrifices of those who came before us and to celebrate the Hellenic values that have influenced the rest of the world.”
