Let's make this birthday one to remember.

61 years old (Born on March 12, 1964)

Happy Birthday, Senator Andrew Joseph Lanza! Another year older and wiser—though we're pretty sure you've been wise enough since your City Council days. From navigating the complexities of New York politics to championing legislation that makes Staten Island proud, you’ve proven time and again you're not just a great attorney but also an exceptional public servant.

Here's hoping this birthday brings fewer debates (unless they're about cake flavors) and more bipartisan agreement on celebrating you today. May your next legislative session be as successful as ever—and may no one filibuster when it's time for dessert! Cheers to another fantastic year ahead!
