Brooklyn, NY – “U.S. District Court Judge Glenn Suddaby is correct in blocking several enforcement provisions in New York’s hastily passed new gun laws. The Constitution is clear on the Second Amendment, and efforts by New York Democrats to require social media background checks for gun purchasers, among other things, violate both First and Second Amendment rights. We commend Justice Suddaby for properly flagging very real Constitutional concerns in New York’s new laws.”

For David Soares to come out this strong, you know the criminal justice system, as it is under Kathy Hochul, Andrea Stewart-Cousins, Carl Heastie, Michael Gianaris et al, does not have the best interest of New Yorkers who pay the price for the revolving door that allows criminals to walk out without any repercussions.

Statement from New York State Conservative Party Chairman Gerard Kassar VOTE NO ON BALLOT PROPOSITION #1 ENVIRONMENTAL BOND ACT

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
Contact: Bill O’Reilly, 212-396-9117
Bill@NovemberTeam.com
October 3, 2022

Brooklyn, NY – “New York voters are being asked to authorize new state debt of $4.2 billion through the sale of bonds for certain capital projects relating to the environment.

“The Conservative Party opposes the passage of the Environmental Bond Act; previous environmental bond acts still have millions of dollars unspent.

“The Conservative Party, since its founding in 1962, has worked to be a respected fiscal watchdog for New York’s taxpayers and all future New Yorkers who will suffer under the weight of expanding debt.

“Currently New York’s debt obligations are in excess of $160 billion. That amounts to almost $8,500 dollars in state debt for every single adult and child in New York State. That is $34,000 in state debt alone for a family of four.

“New Yorkers do not need another $4.2 billion in public debt, together with its resulting debt service, due to actions by the Federal Reserve, will be issued at the highest interest rates New Yorkers have seen in decades.

“The Act and arguments in favor reference a number of projects that appear to warrant consideration.  However, The Conservative Party maintains that a full review and application of all funds that remains from pervious state actions should be used before an additional $4.2 billion is incurred.

“Despite our concern with the Biden Administration’s massive public work projects authorized over the past twelve months billions in funds are likely to come to our state. These billions should be used prior to New York State raising capital revenue through the passage of said Bond Act.

“We fear New York State’s reputation for unchecked spending will result in the possibility of the state legislature spending the entirety of the $4.2 billion on projects that should be paid with existing authorized debt, new federal sources, and pay as you go where possible.

“The Conservative Party urges a NO VOTE ON BALLOT PROPOSITION ONE.”

Chairman Kassar’s weekly wrap up discusses the “Woke” effort to cancel Columbus Day, Biden’s cognitive state and how independent efforts are running commercials to Save Our State.

New York Democrats Canceling Columbus Day

 The Conservative Party was the first to blow the whistle on an attempt by Assemblywoman Mitaynes and Senator Ramos to replace Columbus Day with Indigenous People’s Day. Erasing history might be fine if you are living under a Stalin type regime, but that will not happen here.

In the end, we can thank Lee Zeldin for putting a stop to it. Within hours of the proposal going public Lee Zeldin declared that his administration would have no part of such a crazy, disrespectful idea.

Of course, Governor Hochul then agreed, in essence, reversing her lack of interest in protecting Columbus Day, which was very apparent last year.  New York has plenty of very real pressing needs. Re-naming a holiday enjoyed by millions of residents and guests, not just Italian Americans, is not one of them.

Read my full statement here.

Biden Raises Eyebrows

President Biden continues to raise eyebrows with his odd behavior. This week he made a peculiar comment at a public event concerning the whereabouts of the late Congresswoman Jackie Walorski who tragically died in a car crash in early August.

The White House, which is now very experienced with covering up the President’s strange behavior, was quick to come up with a nonsensical explanation that she was on his mind despite the fact he asked the event crowd “Where is Jackie? She must not be here.”

The President’s cognitive state has been a frequent topic well before his election. As the 2024 election approaches, he should submit to an independent examination to ensure the American people and the world that he is mentally fit of doing his job. Americans deserve to know their Commander- in- Chief is making final decisions, not some unknown, unelected White House staff member.

Independent Efforts Activated to Save Our State

Commercials are appearing throughout the state taking aim at Governor Hochul and her re-election efforts from independent groups focused on crime, inflation and the economy.

This will help even the playing field against the gigantic war chest that Hochul has accumulated through a fundraising effort that has been accused of corruptly providing no bid contracts to Hochul friends. This is, unfortunately, no surprise as Hochul corruption ties run deep.

Public information indicates that two Independent Expenditures (IE’s) are spending currently over $2 million a week bringing forth the truth about the Hochul Administration to the people of New York.

We are just over a month away from Election Day. It is imperative we get voters out to the polls to give New York a fighting chance; free of a corrupt Hochul and shadow of a disgraced Andrew Cuomo.

Hochul touts ‘crackdown’ after $11M more lost in unemployment fraud. From the article: “The Times Union, citing a review of internal labor department correspondence and interviews with employees on the front lines of the Department of Labor call center, reported in September 2020 (emphasis added) that the lowering of the safeguards by the administration of former Gov. Andrew M. Cuomo was enabling widespread fraud.”  The article also notes that the Hochul “crackdown” is going after “More than $11 million was paid in August (emphasis added) to people who were working while also receiving unemployment insurance, according to a release from Hochul’s office.”  For almost two years, fraud continued, but now that Hochul is facing election in six weeks, she is cracking down? Kathy Hochul has proved repeatedly, in her relativity short tenure, she doesn’t care one iota about how your tax dollars are wasted due to pay-to-play, ignorance, and/or mismanagement.  Kathy “the accidental governor” Hochul must be voted OUT of office if New York has a chance to recover from the debacle caused by one-party rule.

NEW YORK STATE CONSERVATIVE PARTY CHAIRMAN GERARD KASSAR ON EFFORT TO ERASE COLUMBUS DAY IN NEW YORK

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
Contact: Bill O’Reilly, 212-396-9117
Bill@NovemberTeam.com
September 26, 2022

Brooklyn, NY – “Woke politicians in New York love nothing more than virtue signaling, and they’re at it again this week in trying to replace Columbus Day with Indigenous People’s Day (A.10728 – Mitaynes; S. 2759 – Ramos). Talk about an empty gesture. If Assemblywoman Mitaynes and Senator Ramos truly want to make amends for the American history they despise, they’d submit legislation to return the state to Native Americans, starting with their own property.

“Any takers?

“In the meantime, those of us who appreciate U.S. history, as imperfect as it can be, will proudly celebrate Columbus Day again this year. Christopher Columbus is a major historical figure, of special significance to Americans of Spanish and Italian descent, and the national holiday in his name is well merited. It must remain.”

KASSAR UNANIMOUSLY REELECTED AS CHAIRMAN OF  THE NEW YORK STATE CONSERVATIVE PARTY

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
Contact: Bill O’Reilly, 212-396-9117
Bill@NovemberTeam.com

Nassau County – Sept. 25…Gerard Kassar has been unanimously reelected as Chairman of the New York State Conservative Party, it was announced today. Mr. Kassar was voted into a third two-year term by the Party’s State Committee which met in Nassau County on Saturday to elect officers and attend to other party business.

“I am thrilled to be given an opportunity to serve the NYS Conservative Party again as its State Chairman,” Mr. Kassar said. “My tenure as Chairman has been filled with exciting challenges and many successes. I expect my new term to take the same path, with many successes this November. With these wins the Conservative Party will play a leading role in returning to our state safe streets, economic prosperity, common sense education policies and an acceptance of constitutionally protected liberties.”

The New York Conservative Party was formed in 1962 to restore a meaningful choice to the voters of New York State. At that time, the three existing political parties espoused the doctrinaire liberal philosophy of the welfare state at home and the collectivist ideology abroad. In just six decades, the party has grown from a small band of conservative-minded men and women to a statewide organization dedicated to the traditional American values of individual freedom, individual responsibility, and individual effort.

The full slate of elected Conservative Party leaders follows:

State Chairman – Gerard Kassar

Chairman Kassar’s weekly wrap up discusses Biden at U.N., Hochul Sells out New Yorkers to Campaign Donor and Adams Questioning Congestion Pricing.

Biden at U.N.

Biden said that we will never allow Iran to have nuclear capabilities, but those are just more words coming from a President and a Government that turned a blind eye to the human rights atrocities that have defined Iran for decades. Iran is a rogue state that uses a morality police to enforce suppression against women and all those who oppose their dictatorial rules.

I joined literally hundreds of Iranian freedom supporters at Dag Hammarskjold Plaza as they chanted their opposition to President Raisi as he spoke to the General Assembly.

For the UN to remain relevant, individuals like Raisi representing terrorist states must not be allowed to address the world. The United States made that mistake in the 1940’s, when we allowed the United Nations headquarters to be in New York. Now, 80 years later, we are constantly reminded of how serious an error this has been.

Allowing Iran and other anti-American terrorist states free access to address the United Nations and the world, defies the original charter of the United Nations. Foreign nations prone to hurt their own, in addition to Americans, should not be welcomed with open arms.

Read my full statement here.

Hochul Sells out New Yorkers to Campaign Donor

It is mindboggling how awful the Cuomo/Hochul, and now Hochul, administration have been during the COVID pandemic.

Governor Hochul wants us to believe that she is exempt from responsibility for the many preventable nursing home deaths and cover up that trailed itself back to the Governor’s Executive Office in which she served as the second in command. Her excuse, that they did not communicate on the matter, is not a very good defense when you have a constitutional responsibility. Ignorance and failure to do the job is what someone of integrity would say, that is not who Kathy Hochul is.

Now we have a Hochul scandal that links her with a scam to provide a large campaign donor

with a no bid contract to provide COVID testing products at a price well above what other states were paying. Once again Hochul pleaded ignorance but has since been shown to have attended a fundraiser thrown by the vendor, Digital Gadgets, for her campaign a short time before the Hochul administration awarded them the bid free contract amounting to $637 million dollars, 45% more than what California paid.

Adams Questioning Congestion Pricing

 Frankly, I have not been impressed by the Adams administration, but I am pleased to see him coming around on congestion pricing.

Congestion pricing is all about the West Side wonks telling New Yorkers what is good for them.

The plan is no more than a Hochul backed bail out of a faltering MTA. New York City refuses to enforce toll evasions which is costing the city hundreds of millions. Now, they’re planning to punish drivers in an effort to make up for the deficit.

Believe it or not, there is an easy solution—enforce the law. Ticket turn style jumpers and toll evaders. Law-abiding taxpayers are fed up with answering financially to a city not willing to hold those most likely to break laws accountable. This year its drivers paying additional tolls to enter Manhattan, next year it will be an added 2% tax with a creative name, further squeezing New Yorker’s out of the state. It must stop.
