DiNapoli Honors Caribbean Leaders

New York State Comptroller Thomas P. DiNapoli honored Caribbean and Caribbean American individuals and organizations at a celebration on Monday in honor of Caribbean Heritage Month.

“We gathered in Brooklyn to celebrate the Caribbean community and recognize extraordinary individuals of Caribbean descent. Each of these leaders has given back to New York state through their pursuits in the arts and public service, and I look forward to continuing to support and uplift the diverse communities and cultures that call our great state home,” said State Comptroller DiNapoli.

The Economic Impact of the Great Outdoors

Outdoor recreation in New York provided $21.1 billion in economic activity in 2020 and supported over 241,000 jobs. While New York ranks fourth in the nation on GDP generated by outdoor recreation, outdoor recreation represents a more significant part of the economy in nearly every other state. Efforts to bolster tourism and protect the outdoors are important for spurring greater economic activity and enhancing access to and utilization of these amenities.

State Comptroller DiNapoli Statement on Expansion of Geneva-Based RealEats into New Facility

“RealEats is a homegrown New York success story. It is meeting the growing consumer demand for healthy, easy-to-prepare dinner options that arrive at your door, many created with fresh food from the Finger Lakes,” New York State Comptroller Thomas P. DiNapoli said. “The state pension fund has invested nearly $8 million in RealEats because the company is generating results and shows significant potential as demand for online meal services increases. We’re proud to help this New York business expand into a new facility.
