House Cleaning

The Brian Lehrer Show | Apr 6, 2010

Thomas Suozzi can be considered a political maverick. He is the youngest person to be elected as Nassau County’s Executive, the first democrat to be elected to the position in 30 years and only the second in the history of the county. His constituents elected him to clean up Nassau county’s finances and now he has taken it upon himself to “Fix Albany.”

In his interview with Brian this morning he spoke about this initiative and his goal to help voters hold their politicians responsible for their actions.
