U.S. Senator Charles E. Schumer today joined with Congresswoman Slaughter’s daughters Emily Robin Minerva and Megan Secatore, members of Rep. Slaughter’s family and staff, Lieutenant Governor of New York Kathy Hochul, Rochester Mayor Lovely Warren, and officials from Amtrak and the New York State Department of Transportation to rename and dedicate Rochester’s Amtrak station as the “Louise M. Slaughter Rochester Station.” Last year to honor Rep. Slaughter’s legacy as a trailblazer who achieved much for her community including the construction of the new Amtrak station, Senators Schumer and Gillibrand wrote to Amtrak President & CEO Richard Anderson to request Amtrak rename the station in honor of their friend and colleague Congresswoman Louise Slaughter. Following their push, which was supported by Governor Cuomo, Amtrak agreed to the request enabling this fitting tribute to Congresswoman Slaughter’s enduring legacy.
