NEW YORK, N.Y. — Senator Thomas Morahan, who served for 11 years representing Rockland County and part of Orange County in the New York State Senate, passed away Monday after a six month battle with leukemia. His family was with him at New York Presbyterian Weill Cornell Medical Center.
During his tenure in the the New York State Senate, Morahan introduced 230 bills which were signed into law. As chairman of the Senate’s Mental Health and Developmental Disabilities Committee, Morahan championed Timothy’s Law, a bill which requires insurers to provide additional mental health coverage. He announced his decision not to seek re-election in May.
