• Rockland deaf patients seek better access to ASL interpreters (lohud.com) — A New City resident's struggle to get in-person ASL interpreters highlights ongoing barriers deaf patients face at Rockland County medical facilities, even after a new hospital policy. Advocates say video interpreting is often pushed first, leaving patients to repeatedly demand in-person help, especially for complex or high‑stakes appointments where clear communication is critical. 
• Two Plead Guilty in Rockland Drug Case (rocklandnews.com) — From New City, Rockland prosecutors report two men have pleaded guilty to felony crack cocaine sales in Nyack as part of "Operation Spring Cleaning." Both face multi‑year state prison sentences, and officials say the coordinated task force effort is central to tackling illegal drug activity across Rockland County neighborhoods.
