• The Nation and Ulster County: Iran War, ICE Land on Legislature's Plate (newsatomic.com) — Ulster County’s latest legislature meeting directly involved Plattekill through Minority Leader Kevin Roberts, who sparred with Kingston’s majority leader over limits on county cooperation with ICE. Lawmakers also approved a summer gas-tax break, funding for SUNY Ulster building upkeep, and a countywide school bus stop-arm camera program, all framed by debate over national immigration and foreign policy impacts at the local level.
