A heartbroken Long Island mother is pushing for the passage of a new state law that would lower the legal blood alcohol content limit for charging someone with driving while intoxicated.

On the day that marked 1,591 long days since Alisa and John McMorris of Wading River lost their son, Andrew — Andrew was killed by a drunk driver while out hiking with his Boy Scout troop in Manorville in 2018 — the heartbroken parents traveled with others to Albany to advocate for lowering the legal blood alcohol limit in New York from .08 to .05.
