The Biden Administration just keeps issuing invitations to migrants to cross the border…with you footing the bill.

Massive Weekend Migrant Caravan Overwhelms Texas Border Town; and it is only going to get worse. Does Biden even watch the news to know what is happening? Does he even care about how the towns cannot absorb the influx of people in need? No need to answer, if he did, he would go see for himself.  And then there is the amount of drugs being smuggled into our country that creates another serious problem: Fentanyl and a stronger form of meth now driving American homeless crisis.  Here is another invitation to keep migrants coming using your tax dollars:  HHS approves Washington state request to offer health insurance to illegal immigrants, citing ‘health equity’.  And we know it won’t be limited to just Washington state.

James E. Hanley, reports in Empire Center: The Market Can Drive Electric Vehicle Sales.  It’s summary: it appears that the market will work in meeting the state’s long-term climate goals, insofar as light-duty vehicles are concerned, and will do so without imposing costly mandates on individuals who cannot afford them.  That’s why it should be allowed to work without interference and the state should repeal its 2035 zero-emission vehicle mandate.

Chairman Kassar discusses Lester Chang, His Interview with Capitol Connection and the Lame Duck House Session

Lester Chang

On November 8th, Lester Chang was duly elected on the Republican and Conservative lines by the people of New York’s 49th Assembly District defeating longtime incumbent Peter Abbate by a clear and undisputable margin. He is the first Asian-American elected to the Assembly from Brooklyn and is part of three flips in the Assembly from Democrat to Republican/Conservative in Brooklyn.

Now, Speaker Heastie and the Democrats do not want to seat him due to a residency question stemming from a section of the State Constitution that has never once been argued since the current version of the State Constitution went into effect in the late 1930s.

Lester was born and raised in Brooklyn, pays taxes in Brooklyn, owns property in Brooklyn and returns to the house he grew up in on a nightly basis except for the time he spent in recent years on active military duty. While he did for many years live in Manhattan and vote in Manhattan, Lester returned to his Brooklyn roots.

His nominating petitions that contained the address of his place of residence in Brooklyn were gathered and filed without objection from Peter Abbate or the litigious Brooklyn Democratic Party. They took the 49th district for granted—then  the unthinkable happened.

The red wave drowned the Brooklyn Democratic Party in Southern Brooklyn.

Having egg on their face, Abbate and the Brooklyn Democrats are throwing a fit and refusing to seat Lester, all at the expense of the voters who gave him a clear majority. Furthermore, they are actively working to disenfranchise the Asian American community who elected Lester and are excited by his win.

They are planning to run the question of residency through a Kangaroo Court consisting of the Democratically controlled Assembly Judiciary Committee. If that was not bad enough, the Heastie crew are using the old committee which is going out of office to make a recommendation about seating a newly elected member.

Lester won the election and should be seated. The Daily News and NY Post have said so in editorials. Locally there have been press conferences and rallies.

Not surprisingly the Brooklyn Democrats have been silent on their colleagues attempt to overturn the results of an election, the Conservative Party will not be.

Lame Duck House Session

Efforts by outgoing House Democrats to use the final days of the Nancy Pelosi-run 117th session of Congress to pass Democratic agenda items need to be opposed.

Any new policy including year-long spending deals and the passage of marquee bills should wait until the new Congress is sworn in. Departing members of Congress should not disenfranchise newly elected members of Congress by denying them the ability to vote on and otherwise impact major policy items in the first months of the new session.

Statement from New York State Conservative Party Chairman Gerard Kassar on Attorney General James Controversy 

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
Contact: Bill O’Reilly, 212-396-9117
Bill@NovemberTeam.com
December 8, 2022

Brooklyn, NY – “How Attorney General Letitia James thought she had the right to cover up sexual harassment allegations within in her office until after the November 8 election is beyond the comprehension of anyone who wants clean and accountable government in New York.

“Of all the public officials in New York State, Attorney General James should know best that self-monitoring a scandal within her own office is unacceptable.

“Governor Hochul’s refusal to act on this matter is equally unacceptable.  She must immediately appoint an independent investigator to determine what went on under the Attorney General’s nose.”

What’s Missing From the Abortion Conversation

Chairman Kassar’s weekly wrap up discusses the proposed toll/fares hikes, Congressman Jefferies new position and our upcoming CPNYS Conference.

Tolls and Fares on The Rise

New York States three largest authorities: Thruway Authority, Port Authority and the MTA are all planning to raise tolls and fares in 2023. In the case of the MTA, they are looking at significant fare increases above the increases that were already scheduled.

It is no accident that these authorities operate outside of direct taxpayer control. Years ago, the Legislature and Governor designed their creation to insulate elected officials from criticism that would certainly result from the increases that have become as regular as he change of seasons.

It is also clear that the tolls and fares we all pay are the equivalent of a gigantic tax that disguises itself as revenue to cover necessary operation, but as a bottom line comes out of your pocket. Transparency is an alien word to these authorities and public hearings no more than a short detour from their objective to raise tolls and fees.

Inflation hits all of us in bad ways. These fare and toll increases will be blamed on inflation as an excuse to be even more egregious, though we know these increases will not go away even when inflation comes under control. When our local and state government make a mistake, their fix is to always throw your money at it.

Jeffries Elected New Democratic House Leader

 The senior Democratic House leadership might have moved from the West Coast to the East Coast, but do not expect any difference in political stewardship. As San Francisco’s Nancy Pelosi leaves the stage and Brooklyn’s Hakeem Jeffries ascends to Minority Leader, expect many of the same failed Democratic ideas to emerge from their conference.  The main difference will be that, as the Minority Party, the likelihood that we will see a repeat of the gigantic spending and tax increases of the past two years repeat themselves is zero.

Terrible public safety policies which Pelosi put on the floor for a vote, which Congressman Jeffries supports, will not see the light of day. And environmental advocacy which focuses more on unrealistic goals than job retention and creation will find itself relegated to academic discussions.

I respect all those who enter the arena of public service. Hakeem Jeffries has worked hard and honorably to become the Democratic Leader. In fact, the national center of Democratic legislative power is in Brooklyn with both Schumer and Jeffries residing in the borough.

Having said that, we should all be especially thankful that Hakeem Jeffries is leading the Minority Party which should deter him from being an extension of the tax and spend Pelosi era.

Save The Date

 Our annual Conservative Political Action Conference will be on a new date and at a new location. We think you will like the change.

The venue will be the Albany Hilton directly across the street from the NYS Capitol in downtown Albany. The dates are Sunday, February 5th through Monday, February 6th. There will even be some official activities on Saturday night for those who arrive early.

A lot is coming together right now, but expect more on how to organize, run political organizations, advocate, get candidates on the ballot and run campaigns. Of course, we will be having a Sunday night reception, Monday lunch, and Monday evening Legislative Reception along with a dinner where we thank our 100% legislatively rated representatives. We will also release our 2023 platform.

Expect to see both new and returning Congressmembers, as well as our State Legislative leaders.

Speakers will present on both national and state issues, and we are looking at breakout sessions and a more interactive event in general.

We just concluded one of the most successful election cycles in Conservative Party history with many victories and a record-breaking number of votes. This will be a great way to start the new year. More details to be released in the coming weeks.

Is bureaucracy destroying America?

NY Gov. Kathy Hochul vetoes bill to fight deadly fentanyl scourge. Hochul, in a series of veto messages last week, said the fentanyl fighting bill was one of 39 measures that would have created task forces and commissions costing about $40 million that was not accounted for in the state budget.  This gives you an honest look at Governor Hochul’s commitment to help end the crime in New York. The Governor could have signed this bill, and vetoed the other 38, thereby keeping some of the costs down.  However, common sense was lacking, and fentanyl will still cross the border and reach New Yorkers. A commission may have helped, but we will not know, and  deaths will continue, even innocent children who never had a chance to live:  Syracuse baby who died had 23 times the amount of fentanyl that would kill an adult, report says.

New York state Sen. Tom O’Mara: One-party rule in Albany means lack of oversight

‘Last thing we need’: Pols want NYers to pay $300M so illegal migrants can stay. “We have a moral obligation to make sure that new Americans have legal representation. Otherwise, the odds are without a lawyer they’ll be sent back to their country of origin and could face dire circumstances, including death,” state Sen. Brad Hoylman (D-Manhattan) said of legislation he is sponsoring alongside Assemblywoman Catalina Cruz (D-Queens).  So, Sen. Hoylman (and Assemblymember Cruz), your statement leads us to believe that, if a thief breaks into your Manhattan (or Queens) home, you will embrace them because they may have no place to live and most likely don’t speak English because they are a “new” American, you will then pay for their lawyer, despite the fact they won’t have to pay bail and lawyers are available if you can’t afford one, and you will forgive their lack of the moral obligation not to break into your home.  Will both of you gladly do this? Yet, you expect hard working New Yorkers to foot the bill for your misguided compassion. New Yorkers are compassionate, and more than willing to help, however, compassion is a two-way street and that means coming into America legally.
