My New York State Assemblymember has already responded to my email of March 30!

I am very happy with his response. He writes:

Dear Mr. Horst,

Thank you for contacting my office regarding data formatting and long term archiving of important digital information in New York. You will be happy to know that I am a consistent advocate of methods that make information more accessible and more sustainable in the future.

In fact, I am currently working with my colleagues to draft legislation that will address many of your concerns.

Please be assured that I will continue to advocate for improved data formatting and archiving methods and will work tirelessly to ensure that New Yorkers benefit from cutting edge information technology.

I appreciate your taking the time to inform me of your views on this important issue. If you have further thoughts on this or any other matter, please feel free to contact my office.

Sincerely yours,

MICHAEL N. GIANARIS
Member of Assembly
