The McMorris family of Wading River recently joined Mothers Against Drunk Driving to honor Senate Majority Leader Charles Schumer (D-Brooklyn) for his efforts last year to help advance legislation to increase drunk driving prevention technology.

The Andrew McMorris Foundation is proud to be a sponsor of the Long Island MADD Battle of the High School Jazz Bands at NYCB Theatre at Westbury on June 15 at 6:30 PM. Join us for raffles, MADD guest speakers, and lots of music and fun!

The Andrew McMorris Foundation was honored to present MADD’s Legislative Hero award to Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer for his leadership in making drunk driving prevention technology part of the Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act.

The Andrew McMorris Foundation will be helping MADD present U.S. Senator Chuck Schumer (D-NY), Senate Majority Leader, with its “Legislative Hero” award for his commitment to saving lives by advancing automotive safety technology on Friday, May 20, 2022 at 12:00 p.m. The award will be presented at West Hills County Park by AMF’s Alisa McMorris and MADD volunteer Sheila Lockwood, whose 23-year-old son Austin was killed by a drunk driver in 2018.

New York State residents: MADD and AMF need your help to pass three bills that will help stop impaired driving in our state. Drunk driving increased during the pandemic: from 2019 to 2020, according to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA), drunk driving deaths increased from 256 to 283—an 11% increase! Lawmakers must advance DWI reforms to ensure New York roadways are safe for all residents.

The Andrew McMorris Foundation is thrilled to announce that we won the Rising Star award at the10th Annual Long Island Imagine Awards!

Join the Andrew McMorris Foundation and Team Fly High Andrew at Walk Like MADD at Jones Beach Theater on May 7, 2022.

From the moment they lost their beloved boy, the McMorris family has seen their lives shattered, blanketed by grief that the joy of the holiday season just intensifies. "This holiday I will be putting up Andrew's stocking but it will have no one to open it — and that kind of pain I wouldn't wish on anyone," Alisa said.

Legislation tied to the recently signed infrastructure law will mandate the use of new car technology that could stop drunk driving. NBC News’ Kerry Sanders reports on how the tech works and talks to some of those pushing for change.

Part of President Joe Biden's newly approved infrastructure bill takes steps to combat drunk driving by mandating new technology for cars. Biden's $1 trillion Investment and Jobs Act includes a mandate for automakers to install monitoring systems to stop drunk drivers in all new vehicles as early as 2026. AMF worked hard with MADD to lobby for the passage of this legislation!

As President Joe Biden signed the $1 trillion infrastructure bill into law Monday, Alisa McMorris of Shoreham rejoiced.

The Andrew McMorris Foundation is currently lobbying Congress to pass the Reduce Impaired Driving for Everyone Act of 2019 (RIDE Act - S. 2604 of 2019). The federal legislation calls for the Department of Transportation to issue a rulemaking to equip all new cars with advanced alcohol detection technology that would passively detect whether the driver is drunk. This has the potential to eliminate drunk driving in America.

It’s time for us to come together and honor Andrew’s life while building his legacy.

On the first anniversary of the worst day of our lives, we’re coming together as a community to host the 1st Annual Andrew McMorris Foundation Benefit.

Alisa McMorris joined Rep. Rice as she made the announcement at the Drunk Driving Victims Memorial in Eisenhower Park, where she was joined by Nassau County Executive Laura Curran, Exec. Director of Mothers Against Drunk Driving (MADD) New York Richard Mallow, and Exec. Director of Long Island Council on Alcoholism and Drug Dependence Steve Chassman.

We were in NYC for a press conference with MADD NY to promote NYS lowering the Blood Alcohol Content (BAC) down to .05%. There is a bill going to the NY Senate and Assembly to change the law from .08% to .05% and the press conference will help support this common-sense bill in order to save thousands of lives.
