E153 | Congressional Record, Volume 172 Issue 35 (Monday, February 23, 2026) [Congressional Record Volume 172, Number 35 (Monday, February 23, 2026)] [Extensions of Remarks] [Page E153] From the Congressional Record Online through the Government Publishing Office [www.gpo.gov] HONORING RANDI MARTOS _____ HON. RITCHIE TORRES of new york in the house of representatives Monday, February 23, 2026 Mr. TORRES of New York. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to honor a remarkable Bronxite and an extraordinary public servant, Randi Martos. Randi is a lifelong resident of Riverdale, a proud product of our public schools, PS 24, MS 141, and the Bronx High School of Science. Her love for community was born and raised in the Bronx, and deepened as she raised her son, determined to ensure that he and every child would have access to the very best our borough has to offer. Today, of all her titles, the one she cherishes most is Grandma. For more than 25 years, Randi has been a force for good in our borough. As Democratic District Leader for the 81st Assembly District, she served with distinction. As Chief of Staff to Assemblyman Jeffrey Dinowitz, she helped lead both district and Albany operations with skill and integrity. But perhaps her greatest legacy lies in our public schools. When parents demanded a local high school option, Randi led the charge to transform MS 141 into what is now the Riverdale Kingsbridge Academy, changing the lives of future generations. She went on to become the longest-serving Parents Association President in the Academy's history. From her leadership in local co-ops to her tireless community activism and her unwavering loyalty to the Bronx Bombers, Randi Martos embodies the very best of the Bronx and we are better because of her service. ____________________ |
