Senator Andrew Lanza, who represents Staten Island’s 24th District in the New York State Senate, has recently addressed community events and energy affordability through a series of posts on his social media account.
On March 18, 2026, Lanza invited the public to an event honoring Vietnam veterans: “All are invited to Tottenville High School on Saturday, April 18th at 1pm to recognize the sacrifices of those who served in the Vietnam. No RSVP required, All are welcome, bring your family! Light refreshments will be served. Any questions please call: (718) 984-4073 https://t.co/XQFCBwPPhX”. This event aims to recognize and appreciate those who served during the Vietnam War.
On March 20, 2026, he posted a message highlighting concerns about utility costs for residents: “We know that everyday New Yorkers are struggling with rising heating and energy bills, which is why we are fighting for a more affordable, realistic, and reliable energy future.” The same day, Lanza shared another post containing only a link: “https://t.co/LH0kXqsDoL”.
Lanza’s advocacy extends beyond social media. He has worked on community improvements such as school upgrades and park expansions on Staten Island (source). A member of both the Republican and Conservative parties (source), he has held leadership roles including Senate Deputy Minority Leader and served on several committees—Rules, Judiciary, Ethics and Internal Governance, and Cities 1 (source). In addition to these responsibilities, Lanza has championed legislative measures aimed at protecting against domestic violence and strengthening crime victim rights (source).
Lanza also played a role in establishing Judicial Independence Day on Staten Island after the creation of the 13th Judicial District (source). His ongoing engagement with constituents is reflected both online and through local initiatives.
