Here is an expanded version of the second item from my “Albany Insider” column from Monday’s editions:

The creator of a political action committee pushing for enactment of a Child Victims Act has endorsed Marisol Alcantara in a three-way Democratic upper Manhattan state Senate primary.

“She has a strong background in health care and understands the issue well,” said Gary Greenberg, an upstate investor and child abuse survivor who founded the Fighting For Children PAC.

Greenberg said Senate Independent Democratic Committee Leader Jeffrey Klein’s support of Alcantara also helped. “He’s been a friend to us,” he said.
