Zeldin Promotes Keep America Beautiful Project

Saturday, April 5th, a great opportunity to clean up our communities

MASTIC, NY (04/02/2008; 1520)(readMedia)-- The endorsed Republican candidate for New York’s First Congressional District today issued a statement regarding this weekend’s Keep America Beautiful Campaign projects occurring throughout the district. Candidate Lee Zeldin continued his campaign-long push to improve our community, and take care of the wonderful environment and natural beauty for which Eastern Long Island is world renown.

Zeldin issued the following statement:

From the Long Island Sound through the Pine Barrens to the beaches of the Hamptons and the Great South Bay, New York's First Congressional District is a treasure trove of beauty, and with this gift comes tremendous responsibility. In addition to enjoying the natural splendor of our communities, the people of Eastern Long Island must act as caretakers so that future generations may enjoy clean water and open space.

In a few days, we'll have an excellent opportunity to fulfill our responsibilities. This Saturday, the Keep America Beautiful Campaign comes to Eastern Suffolk, and I want to take this opportunity to issue a challenge to my fellow residents of Eastern Long Island.

If you are obliged to preserve and protect our environment; if you recognize that collectively, our everyday choices make a huge impact on the world; and if you want to prevent litter, reduce waste and beautify communities, then Saturday is your day to shine.

For more information on participating, contact Christopher O'Connor at 631-451-6261.

I look forward seeing you all out there…LONG ISLAND'S FUTURE BEGINS NOW!
