Representing the 74th Assembly District on Manhattan's East Side, Brian Kavanagh has fought to reform State government and make it more responsive to the needs of ordinary New Yorkers. He has focused on legislation and policy changes to create a fairer and more open political process, support affordable housing, protect the environment, promote economic and social justice and a more humane society, prevent gun violence, and provide for greater accountability in the ways government provides services and spends our tax dollars.

Brian has introduced well over 200 bills in the Assembly. Dozens of these bills have passed the Assembly and 18 had been signed into law as of the end of the 2010 legislative session. Brian's work has earned him the League of Conservation Voters Eco-Star Award, the highest rating of any legislator in 2010 from Environmental Advocates of New York, the City University of New York's Baruch College Legislator of the Year Award, the Samuel J. Tilden Club's Democratic Leadership Award, and a perfect rating from the League of Humane Voters.

Brian was reelected to his third term in the Assembly in November 2010 on the Democratic and Working Families lines with 84 percent of the votes cast.
