Linda B. Rosenthal (born November 2, 1957)〔 represents District 67 as a Democrat in the New York State Assembly, which includes parts of Manhattan's Upper West Side and Clinton neighborhoods. Rosenthal earned a B.A. degree in history from the University of Rochester〔 in 1980.〔 She served as an assistant to Congressman Jerry Nadler for thirteen years. She was elected to the State Assembly in a February 2006 special election to replace Scott Stringer, who left the Assembly to become Manhattan Borough President. Rosenthal won the November 2008 general election with 84.7 percent of the vote and ran uncontested in the November 2010 general election. In the Assembly, Rosenthal sits on the Housing, Energy, Agriculture, Corporations, and Alcohol and Drug Abuse Committees. In 2006, the New York State Legislature passed Assemblymember Rosenthal's landmark legislation allowing court orders of protection to be extended to pets. In May 2015, fellow Manhattan Democrat Richard N. Gottfried tried to curb a bill introduced by Rosenthal that would allow customers to bring their dogs to outdoor restaurants, because Gottfried was afraid larger breeds would be able to grab food from tabletops.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Lawmaker thinks dogs at cafes will eat everyone’s food )〕〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Not Everyone Is Happy About a New Bill Welcoming Dogs to Al Fresco Dining Spots – Eater NY )〕 Gottfried said: "Some dogs are tall enough that all they would have to do is turn their heads and they would be eating off people’s plates."〔 A similar bill that passed in California has not resulted in any problems, and the practice is also legal in Israel and some European countries.〔〔 The bill passed the Senate in May 2015.〔〔 She resides on the Upper West Side of Manhattan.〔 ==Election results== * February 2006 special election, NYS Assembly, 67th AD : * November 2006 general election, NYS Assembly, 67th AD : * November 2008 general election, NYS Assembly, 67th AD : * November 2010 general election, NYS Assembly, 67th AD : 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Linda Rosenthal」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
