Good news for New York City residents; your megalomaniac mayor has only 26 days left in his term.

The NY Sun pays tribute to the late Senator Robert Dole, and the National Review also writes about his passing at age 98. If you watch the moment that he stood at George H. W. Bush’s public viewing in the Capitol you will get a sense of his patriotism and inner strength. That moment explains so much about Bob Dole the man, the man who gave so much for his country. He was part of the greatest generation, a man who witnessed the horrors of World War II and came home seriously wounded, yet, or maybe due to what he saw and experienced, became a man who crossed the aisle, who listened and who was able to achieve great things for America. The “Squad” should take note. I seriously doubt that one of them has 1% of Bob Dole’s love of America, all America stands for and what he sacrificed to keep America the greatest country ever created by men. As we Tweeted yesterday; Job well done, now you can rest in peace, Senator Dole.

GOP, businesses slam AOC for doubting existence of smash-and-grab robberies: ‘Tone-deaf and offensive.’  Are her constituents aware of what she says and does as their representative?

Chairman Kassar’s weekly wrap up discusses voting rights for non-citizens, final results and the Supreme Court listened.

Voting Rights for Non-Citizens

It should come as no surprise that on top of the Democrats Christmas wish list sits voting rights for more than 800,000 non-citizens.

The far-left leaning New York City Council is set to vote within the next week on legislation that would allow non-citizens to register and vote in municipal elections. This news comes on the heals of Republican and Conservative success in the city that saw the Council Republican Conference double in size and successfully fought back Democratic power grab ballot propositions pushed hard by the left.

Democrats, sensing their socialist, anti-police, anti-public safety, tax heavy agenda is starting to annoy voters; they therefore are looking to do away with all election integrity. Furthermore, they are showing complete disregard to one of the most sacred fundamental rights of Americans citizens—the right to vote.

The Conservative Party will take every step necessary to see that votes are cast by legal New York residents only. This may very well include joining lawsuits with others interested in protecting our elections; make no mistake we fill fight every step of the way.

Final Results

After all absentee votes were counted, the certified election results show the defeat of the three propositions by large majorities. So, what does the ultra-left Democrat controlled state legislature do? They introduce bills to overcome their defeat at the polls and will next plan to push failed ballot propositions voted down by the people of New York through legislation in which only legislators can vote.

These efforts by state Democrats are dirty, disingenuous and shows utter lack of respect for the will of the people who made their voices heard on November 2.

We should be worried about the steps the far-left New York State Democrats will take in order to force their agenda through. A bi-partisan majority voted down three ballot propositions and now a partisan legislature looks to undo the votes of Conservatives, Republicans, Democrats, and blanks alike.

Remember, these state legislators will have their names on the ballot again. It is imperative we don’t forget how quickly those who supposedly “represent” us discarded our vote the constitutional amendments and are working to undermine the democratic process all because they didn’t get their way.

Supreme Court Listened

It has been many years in the making, but our day in court has finally come and I am very hopeful that we will win an important battle—a victory for life.

As we wait on the Supreme Court to rule on a case challenging the constitutionality of Mississippi Gestational Age Act, a case that could have major implications for Roe V. Wade, including outright reversal.

A majority of the arguments focused on whether the court’s decisions in Roe v. Wade and Planned Parenthood v. Casey should be overruled. These precedents are on the line and hold such importance because the court decided in both cases that any abortion ban prior to “viability,” (means when the unborn child can potentially live outside the womb,) is unconstitutional. The Mississippi ban draws the line well before viability, generally understood to be at around 24 weeks.

I eagerly wait for a ruling supporting our most vulnerable and protects the sanctity of life.

On the bright side, if Roe v Wade becomes moot, maybe New York’s “up to the moment of birth” abortion law will also, under new leadership.

From Gatestone Institute:  Re Confidence in ‘Ruler’

The United States Senate is a very “select club” limited to 100 elected members, the Upper House of Congress.

At one time, that was the image projected by its members; stately. I’ve come to the conclusion, I am obviously dated in my opinion of how the US Senate Leader should be perceived, and if I had any doubt, the current US Senate Majority Leader, NY’s own, Charles Schumer made that perfectly clear when Schumer said:  NYS Will Get ‘An Effing Lot Of Money’ For Street Safety And Cycling.  Great example for your grandchildren, Senator.

From Daily Signal:  27 Books That Would Make a Great Gift This Christmas.

By the First President of the United States of America, a Proclamation.

Whereas it is the duty of all Nations to acknowledge the providence of Almighty God, to obey his will, to be grateful for his benefits, and humbly to implore his protection and favor– and whereas both Houses of Congress have by their joint Committee requested me to recommend to the People of the United States a day of public thanksgiving and prayer to be observed by acknowledging with grateful hearts the many signal favors of Almighty God especially by affording them an opportunity peaceably to establish a form of government for their safety and happiness.

Now therefore I do recommend and assign Thursday the 26th day of November next to be devoted by the People of these States to the service of that great and glorious Being, who is the beneficent Author of all the good that was, that is, or that will be– That we may then all unite in rendering unto him our sincere and humble thanks–for his kind care and protection of the People of this Country previous to their becoming a Nation–for the signal and manifold mercies, and the favorable interpositions of his Providence which we experienced in the course and conclusion of the late war–for the great degree of tranquility, union, and plenty, which we have since enjoyed–for the peaceable and rational manner, in which we have been enabled to establish constitutions of government for our safety and happiness, and particularly the national One now lately instituted–for the civil and religious liberty with which we are blessed; and the means we have of acquiring and diffusing useful knowledge; and in general for all the great and various favors which he hath been pleased to confer upon us.

And also that we may then unite in most humbly offering our prayers and supplications to the great Lord and Ruler of Nations and beseech him to pardon our national and other transgressions– to enable us all, whether in public or private stations, to perform our several and relative duties properly and punctually–to render our national government a blessing to all the people, by constantly being a Government of wise, just, and constitutional laws, discreetly and faithfully executed and obeyed–to protect and guide all Sovereigns and Nations (especially such as have shewn kindness unto us) and to bless them with good government, peace, and concord–To promote the knowledge and practice of true religion and virtue, and the encrease of science among them and us–and generally to grant unto all Mankind such a degree of temporal prosperity as He alone knows to be best.

Washington issued a proclamation on October 3, 1789, designating Thursday, November 26 as a national day of thanks.

If only our current president would publicly acknowledge the same.

New York City Council Moves to Allow 800,000 Non-Citizens to Vote in Municipal Elections. The right to vote is guaranteed by our US Constitution in the 15th Amendment.

Members of the NYC Council who take the following oath “I do solemnly swear (or affirm) that I am duly qualified, according to the constitution of this state, to exercise the duties of the office to which I have been elected and that I will, to the best of my ability, discharge the duties thereof, and preserve, protect, and defend the Constitution of this state and of the United StatesHow do the NYC Council Members justify the fact that they will grant non-citizens the right to vote when the US Constitution grants citizens – not green-card holders and residents with work permits — the right to vote? The leader of the free world ignores laws he doesn’t like; the duly elected members of the NYC Council, want to grant non-citizens the right to vote, progressive DA’s know their low or no cash bail will lead to “going to go out and kill somebody” and people wonder why stores are looted, gang violence is rampart while the suicide rate and drug abuse is ever increasing?  When our leaders choose to ignore (or do not have) a moral compass, the result is the turmoil America is undergoing now. It is up to us to end this mayhem and save our country before America self-implodes.

There is no doubt that every driver desperately needs relief from surging fuel prices; however, your solution is misguided. To use the Strategic Petroleum Reserve for a possible short term reprieve of the Biden Administration’s cancelling  of the Keystone fuel lines, thereby being a major cause of the surging fuel prices, will not resolve the overall problem that you and the Biden Administration are determined to end (by any and all means possible, including the probable closing of another oil pipeline) the use of fossil fuels in the United States of America.  Government’s chief responsibility is to protect her citizens; not rule by fiat that Americans must abandon the free enterprise system. Americas’ entrepreneurial spirit has always accepted challenges and adopted to the needs presented. The Strategic Petroleum Reserve is there for emergencies out of our control (hurricanes that disrupt supplies are out of our control) not for surging oil prices created by decisions made to curb the use of fossil fuels and force people to use what the government has decided to promote. What you should be doing, Senator Schumer, is standing up for us by telling President Biden that we must return to the energy independence we enjoyed under President Trump,. We won’t hold our breath while you find your backbone to really help your constituents.

CONSERVATIVE PARTY RATES 2021 LEGISLATIVE SESSION Seven Senators Score 100%; Four Assembly Members Score 100%

CONSERVATIVE PARTY RATES 2021 LEGISLATIVE SESSION
Seven Senators Score 100%; Four Assembly Members Score 100%
 

            Brooklyn, NY – The Conservative Party’s 2021 legislative ratings are available on the Conservative Party’s website (www.cpnys.org) today to advise voters in New York State how their legislator votes on 25 key issues.

The Conservative Party congratulates Senators Gallivan, Helming, Jordan, O’Mara, Ortt , Rath, III and Tedisco and Assembly Members Angelino, DiPietro, Lemondes and Manktelow on their 100% ratings.

Keeping with its tradition, the Conservative Party tracked legislation throughout the session, issued support and opposition memos, and determined, at an executive committee meeting, which key issues would be used. The Bills considered comprise a variety of issues including, but not limited to economics, health, safety, and pro-life issues that affect the lives of all New Yorkers. “We believe that it is necessary to keep the public informed of key votes and let the taxpayers be aware of how elected officials spend our hard-earned money. Every Bill is considered, and then we narrow the number to give voters a fair assessment of what transpires in Albany,” said Gerard Kassar, State Chairman. “A review of the Bills used this year will show New Yorkers how out of touch the Democratic leaders of legislature are with the average citizen; many are costly, sometimes unwarranted, and a few will show how they try to help New Yorkers.” said Kassar.

The overall Senate ratings have consistently dropped since the Democrats took total control. In 2018 the average was 55%, in 2019 the average was 40%, in the COVID-19 shortened session of 2020 the Senate rated a meager 35%; this year the overall Senate rating was 36%. In 2018 the Democratic Senate average was 41%, in 2019 the democratic average plummeted to 14%; it slightly improved to 17% in 2020, however, this year Majority Leader Stewart-Cousins’ democrats averaged a mere 9.4%. Republican Senators, led by Senator Rob Ortt brought their average to 93% from last years’ 71%. Conservative endorsed legislators in the Senate raised their average to 90% an increase of 21% from the 2020 average.

The Assembly’s overall rating remains at 36% same as 2020 and 2019, down 6% from their 2018 rating of 42%. The Democrats in the Assembly average dropped 4.4% this year under the leadership of Speaker Heastie, from 19% to 14.6%. It was 17% in 2019, which was down significantly from their 28% rating in 2018. The 43 Republican Assembly members, under the leadership of Assemblyman Will Barclay, averaged, 89.5% up from 79% in 2020. Conservative Party endorsed Assembly Members also increased their average to 88% up by 9% from 2020.

As noted, the Conservative Republican alliance has the best interest of all New Yorkers when it comes to taxes, crime and every day “kitchen table issues.”

We encourage voters to review the ratings, and contact their legislators to let them know they are doing a good job or in the cases where the average is low, to let them know that you will vote accordingly. New York needs to reestablish a friendly place for entrepreneurs to open businesses and most importantly to create new jobs for those who have been forced out of work due to COVID-19. The current trends adopting progressive ideology – as noted by the numbers — only increases an exodus; families want a safe place to live, and a resurgence of business opportunities that made New York the beacon of hope and prosperity.
