Tuckahoe NY Pride

George Latimer is a New York public servant whose career has spanned local, state, and county government. After serving on the Rye City Council and as Mayor of Rye, he represented parts of Westchester as a New York State Assemblymember and later as a State Senator. In 2017 he was elected Westchester County Executive, focusing on fiscal stewardship, infrastructure, public health, and constituent services. Latimer has also been a visible ally to LGBTQ residents, supporting nondiscrimination protections, affirming marriage equality and inclusive schools, and regularly participating in Pride events and proclamations in Westchester. He emphasizes respect, safety, and equal opportunity.

Quote: “Westchester County is a welcoming community no matter who you are, who you love, where you are from, or for that matter, any other reason. This Executive Order, a part of series of orders I am signing, makes the strong statement that our LGBTQIA+ community is a vital part of what makes Westchester our home.”
