Marc Molinaro’s Confirmation Hearing
My friend and a tremendous ally to the Conservative Party, Marc Molinaro, had an outstanding Senate hearing for his nomination as the next Federal Transit Administration (FTA) Administrator. When Marc is confirmed, I have no doubt he will hit the ground running on day one. He will work closely with Secretary Duffy to address the corruption and waste within the MTA—something that has long plagued New Yorkers. This past February at CPPAC, we heard first hand from Marc; he is bright and full of ideas. Marc truly understands the transportation challenges our state faces, and he will be an invaluable partner in bringing much-needed reform.
Rochester Police Memo
Rochester has been on the decline for years, and residents are fed up. Democrat policies have destroyed a once great city, and politicians won’t undo their wrongs. From bail reform, discovery law changes, the defund the police movement, not cooperating with ICE, etc. The latest story, which you can find here, has to do with the Mayor of Rochester condemning police officers for simply answering the call of duty to help a Homeland Security Investigation. Yet, Mayor Evans has the nerve to put out a public statement condemning these brave officers who are just doing their jobs. He claims this is against “city policy.” Someone should remind him who occupies the White House.
Mayor Malik Evans is more interested in appeasing political activists than supporting law enforcement. His decision to investigate officers for simply responding to a Homeland Security call for backup is an outrageous attempt to intimidate RPD. Our officers put their lives on the line daily, and they deserve our respect—not politically motivated investigations. We stand with law enforcement and against weak leadership that prioritizes political points over public safety.
Congresswoman Elise Stefanik’s Decision to Remain in Congress
Congresswoman Elise Stefanik was recently nominated to serve as the U.S. Ambassador to the United Nations. However, given the slim Republican House majority, she and the president have determined that it is in the best interest of the country for her to remain in Congress. While I would have been proud to see her represent our nation on the world stage, I fully support her decision to continue leading in the House. Elise is a proven fighter, and the Conservative Party looks forward to continuing our work with her on key issues. You can view our full press release here:
Activist Judges Undermining the Will of the People
Time and time again, rogue activist judges have sought to obstruct President Trump’s America First agenda—an agenda that reflects the will of the American people. Whether it’s blocking the deportation of violent Venezuelan gang members or halting Trump’s funding freeze for bureaucratic waste, these judges are overstepping their role. The courts should not be used as a tool for partisan interference. The people elected President Trump to enact real change, and he has a clear mandate to secure our borders, enforce the law, and cut government waste. The Conservative Party stands firmly against judicial activism and in support of a government that works for the people—not against them.
