“Government’s view of the economy could be summed up in a few short phrases: If it moves, tax it. If it keeps moving, regulate it. And if it stops moving, subsidize it”-Ronald Reagan
Caught Red Handed: Brennan’s Handwritten Notes Prove Obama Was Briefed on Scheme to Set Up Trump. More on this at Fox News.com. So, Brennan’s handwritten notes indicate that former President Obama was briefed “on Hillary Clinton’s purported “plan” to tie then-candidate Donald Trump to Russia as “a means of distracting the public from her use of a private email server” ahead of the 2016 presidential election…” Was Joe Biden aware either briefed or told by Obama? Or did President Obama and Hillary think he wasn’t part of the “inner circle” and should be told. Either answer is detrimental to the Biden campaign. He either was part of the cover-up or not trusted enough to be told. I wonder how the press will have his back on this breaking news or if they will even bother to report it?
The NY Sun reveals some of the anti-Trumpers trepidation about his return. So, does Charles Hurt in his Washington Times article: Liberal vermin squeal with delight over Trump’s COVID-19 diagnosis.
Court-Packing Would Be the Very Tyranny Democrats Have Warned About. (But it won’t stop them if voters give them the US Senate and Presidency; they would control the future for years…remember how long the Democrats were in control after Watergate…this would be far more devastating.)

No Drama; No problems; Just Support! Trump supporters close 5th Ave. to support COVID-19-stricken president. And it happened all over New York State and the Nation. However, far too many in the mainstream media failed to cover President Trump’s support. It is discouraging that the MSM is so biased.
President Trump tweets he will be heading back to the White House today. This is good news for the country; even for those who vehemently dislike President Trump. His fast-tracking ways to cope with COVID-19 (vaccines and drug therapy) have shown how he has the best interest of all Americans front and foremost. Hopefully, he will get credit for this, especially from the media, since it is the media that has pushed the envelope on how “detrimental” the Trump Administration is. Does anyone think Jack Tapper will retract this? Trump: ‘Sick and in isolation … you have become a symbol of your own failures’ Neither do I.
Ok, I know we are back on Twitter, but what I want to know, is why we were locked out for a total 10 weeks, never told @cpnys why, and this person isn’t suspended for one day. Twitter should seriously consider ending its artificial intelligence system to monitor what is posted, or at the very least improve how its AI programs/monitors what is posted. Twitter to fix AI system that cut black people from photos.
The New York State Conservative Party wishes President Trump and the First Lady a speedy recovery. They will be in our thoughts and prayers.
Trump Goes 2 on 1 in First Debate
President Trump had more than just Joe Biden to worry about in the first debate as moderator Chris Wallace made himself a key player, and at times, even a surrogate of Joe Biden.
Wallace repeatedly let Biden off the hook on many key issues such as his plan to raise individual and corporate taxes, as well as whether or not he would pack the Supreme Court, a topic he allowed Biden to ignore all together.
President Trump, however, was pressed on every issue and even forced to answer recycled questions from a 2016 debate also moderated by Chris Wallace.
At times it felt like the debate was between the President and Wallace as Joe Biden snickered in the corner. We heard very little from Biden, and what we did hear, spells potential trouble if elected.
Doubling down on his support for Obamacare, raising taxes, and chasing jobs out of America with an increase in corporate taxes, and referring to Antifa as an “idea” and refusing to acknowledge the destruction they’ve caused nationwide is a dangerous direction we cannot afford to go.
Amy Coney Barrett Officially Nominated to Fill Court Vacancy
Last weekend, President Trump officially nominated 7th Circuit Court of Appeals Judge Amy Coney Barrett to become the next Justice on the United States Supreme Court.
Barrett is a highly qualified, highly respected proven conservative. Her belief in faith and the law is what we should be looking for in a new Justice.
Democrats are looking to discredit her in any way possible attacking her Catholic faith and conservative record. One activist even went as far to call her a “white colonizer” for adopting two children from Haiti. An absolutely disgusting charge.
While Senate Democrats will do anything they can to obstruct the President from doing his job, the constitution is clear and the President is elected for a term of four years. It is his duty, as well as the Senates, to confirm a 9th Justice to the Supreme Court.
Conservative Delegates Meet in Orange County
I want to thank the Conservative Party State Committee from around the state for trusting in me to lead the party for another two-year term.
It has been a busy year and a half. We have made tremendous strides digitally, we have expanded our presence throughout the state, nominated an impressive slate of candidates, and most importantly sued Andrew Cuomo and won. The Governor attempted to rule as a dictator and abolish third parties, but with the help of many party leaders, we fought back and won. The Conservative Party is here to stay.
In addition, the following officers were also elected to two-year terms, Shaun Marie Levine (Albany County) as the Executive Vice-Chairman, Howard Lim, Jr. (Westchester County) as Secretary and Frances T. Vella-Marrone (Kings County) as Treasurer.
Our state leadership is as follows:
Eight State Vice-Chairmen, Daniel F. Donovan, Jr. (Nassau County), Hugh Fox (Westchester County), Thomas M. Long (Queens County), Ralph C. Lorigo (Erie County), James F. Quinn, Jr. (Wayne County), Gregory S. Rigby (Cayuga County), Allen Roth (New York County) and Frank Tinari (Suffolk County), and seven Regional Vice-Chairmen were also elected. The Regional Vice-Chairs are: In the Capital District – Brian Gardner (Columbia County), in the Northern Region — Henry “Hank” Ford (St. Lawrence County), in the North Central Region — H. Leonard Schick (Oswego County), in the South-Central Region – James M. Thomas (Broome County), in the Mid-Western Region — Jason McGuire (Livingston County), in the Western Region — Arthur Munger (Genesee County) and in the Hudson Valley – William Beckmann (Rockland County).
The Officers above also serve as the officers of the State Executive Committee.
The following are At-Large Members of the State Executive Committee: Vincent Arcuri (Queens County), Stuart Avrick (New York County), James J. Barrett, Jr. (Schenectady County), Carol Birkholtz (Warren County), Ross Brady (Kings County), Michael Buttino (Greene County), Thomas M. Casey (Queens County), David M. Curcio (Richmond County), Chung Dick (Kings County), Louis DeCicco (Chemung County), John P. DeLessio (Orange County), John E. Flynn, (Suffolk County), Robert Fois (Westchester County), Edward J. Gaddy (Ulster County), Michael Garlock (Wayne County), John J. Hayes (Ulster County), Eileen Johnson (Kings County), Christopher J. Kendall (Madison County), Jim M. Kerr (New York County), Paul Kosowski (Nassau County), Edward A. Magilton (Sullivan County), Charles R. Mancabelli (Onondaga County), James Maxwell (Putnam County), Donald S. Mazzullo (Monroe County), Patrick McManus (Bronx County), Donald Minichino (Dutchess County), Christopher Mistron (Nassau County), Scott D. Nasca (Monroe County), Dimitry Edward Naemit (Rockland County), Reid W. Robbins (Ontario County), Laura A. Schreiner (Suffolk County), John Seravalli (New York County), Michael E. Torres (Suffolk County), Robert E. White (Franklin County), Anna M. Wilcox (Chautauqua County), and Robert Zordan (Saratoga County).
The Members of the State Executive Committee serve as the governing body when the full state committee is not convened. All members serve a two-year term. The Members of the State Executive Committee appointed Ralph C. Lorigo, Esq. as Party Counsel, Eileen Johnson as the Assistant Secretary, Shaun Marie Levine as the Executive Director and Michael R. Long as Chairman Emeritus, for a term coterminous with the elected members.
Candidate Spotlight Mike Lawler
Mike Lawler is a lifelong Rockland County resident and graduate of Suffern High School. In 2009, Mike earned a degree in Business Administration, with a double major in Accounting and Finance, from Manhattan College, where he was named the Valedictorian of his graduating class.
Mike currently serves as Deputy Town Supervisor in Orangetown under Supervisor Teresa Kenny and previously worked in the Westchester County Executive’s Office as an advisor to Rob Astorino, where he dealt with issues ranging from the county budget to public policy and community outreach initiatives. In addition, Mike previously served as Executive Director of the State Republican Party, helping elect candidates to federal, state, and local office.
Mike is also a successful small businessman who founded his own government affairs and public relations firm.
Mike represents a real opportunity to flip an Assembly seat and continue to chip away at the Democrats super majority.
After graduating from Liverpool High, John studied agriculture at Penn State University, and was commissioned in the U.S. Army. Over a nearly 27-year career serving us in the Army, John deployed overseas numerous times including Iraq and Afghanistan and retired in 2014 as a Colonel.
Returning home, John, Martha, and family began farming 488 acres in LaFayette. He has turned longtime fallow, overgrown land to fertile productivity.
While working as a Defense and National Security consultant the past few years, the farm continued to grow, and Ellys Acres now hosts a growing flock of sheep and lambs, hay and forage, and John is looking at his 3000-maple tree sugar bush with an eye to maple syrup production.
John is a leader in the farming community as well – – he is President of the Farmer Veteran Coalition of New York State – – and is active nationally with the American Sheep Industry Association. He was also appointed to the Board of Directors of the Onondaga County Soil & Water Conservation District by the County Executive, and is a member of NYS Farm Bureau.
Biden really does live in the basement and apparently has no television or cable networks to learn what is happening outside of his little world. Trump slams Biden’s belief that Antifa ‘is an idea’. So pathetic that the man who wants to be President thinks Antifa “is an idea” and doesn’t acknowledge that it is movement to undermine the US Constitution.
While the article stresses that one’s privacy is protected, it strikes me as a little too invasive. What happens if it goes off, and a person overreacts to the fact that someone near them has tested positive for COVID-19? We all know what happens when a person doesn’t wear a mask near them. New app alerts New Yorkers if they’re near someone with COVID-19.
FYI: Ginsburg Rejected Court-Packing, And So Should We (You can stop talking about this – and adding 2 new states — by voting in person on November 3, 2020) As noted above: What kind of America will you choose?
It is discouraging to be reminded, once again, that the US Senate Minority Leader is anything but a leader. New York’s own Senior Senator, Charles Schumer, said today that he will not meet with Judge Amy Coney Barrett. Isn’t a leader supposed to have an open mind, look at all possibilities and then decide. When a leader refuses to do so, because he believes that the “nominee of such an illegitimate process and one who is determined to get rid of the Affordable Care Act” (without any knowledge that she would) he shows the world that his mind is closed and making political points with his base is all that matters to him.
Following lock step with his minority leader, Sen. Cory Johnson, that he wants to know if the future Justice would recuse herself from any election issues. When did leadership become redefined to mean: pander to your base?
William McGurn writing in the Wall Street Journal (subscription required) points out how the mainstream media handle the Catholic Faith of former VP Biden and current Judge Amy Coney Barrett. Two Catholics, One Double Standard.
Melissa Mackenzie, publisher of the American Spectator, has a lively political analysis (as an aside, she also has a food interlude on the best way to cook a steak) of Biden, Harris, and Barrett.
Mr. former VP, here is a reminder that Progressives will call you out if you are not completely loyal: Rep. Tulsi Gabbard irks left after citing Project Veritas in call to ban ballot harvesting. (They may preach they have a “big tent” but the reality is they do not.) David Hogg, the darling of the left, learned this yesterday when they turned on him. Since he craves the attention of his 1 million followers, he quickly apologized for having an independent thought.
Quite the eye-opener headline: China Says Killing Americans over Taiwan is ‘Morally Justified’ The article is not one you will find in any of our mainstream media publications and an informed voter should be aware of how the communist government of China thinks.
A leopard cannot change his spots and apparently Gov. Cuomo cannot accept any fault when things go wrong. New York had a budget deficit long before COVID-19 ran rampant and closing-down New York certainly helped the fiscal crisis. Gov. Andrew Cuomo said this Monday: No state budgetary decision can prevent an economic downturn, before asserting the federal government is liable for New York’s estimated two-year $50 billion deficit due to the coronavirus pandemic. Governor, take the advice given in yesterday’s NY Post editorial: take a week off. (Perhaps you need more than a week…?) Have the professionals focus on fixing the problems you have allowed to become almost impossible to fix and even more difficult due to the closing down of New York state. In other words, get back to doing what is right for all New Yorkers.
Need a break from politics? Read this, Ari Aster’s Moral Horror. Its focus is on America’s most intelligent young filmmaker who is obsessed with the collapse of fatherhood and the return of paganism. (Ok, it may not be a break from politics, but it will introduce you to a gifted filmmaker.)

New York deserves better than this: New York’s post-COVID job losses outpace all but one other state. However, the Emperor of NY, continues his total control of what we can and can not do, his obsession to “help” is only driving the economy, loss of tax income, deep into unchartered territory that will take years, if not decades, to recover from and force our youth to places more conducive to starting businesses and raising families. One small step to help our great state is to take back the NYS Senate on November 3, elect as many conservative/republican Assembly Members as possible and send conservative endorsed congressional candidates to Washington, DC while re-electing President Trump who understands how to get the economy back to solid growth.

Brooklyn, NY — Conservatives meet in Washingtonville, NY (Orange County) on September 26, 2020 to reorganize, adopt rules and regulations and elect officers to serve for a two-year term as required by Election Law.
Gerard Kassar (Kings County) was unanimously re-elected to serve as Chairman for the two-year term. Regional Vice Chairman James Thomas accurately portrayed Chairman Kassar’s leadership in nominating him when he said, “Jerry has only been chairman a short time but it’s been a busy time. Lawsuits and a pandemic and virtual meeting. But even then, he was able to move the party forward – reaching out to new audiences and expanding the party.” Reid Robbins, Ontario Chairman noted that “There are very few reasons I would leave my family early on a Saturday morning and be gone all day. The leadership of Jerry Kassar and his ability to eliminate distance among county leaders to advance conservative principles across the state, makes the trip pleasurable,” when he seconded the nomination.
Chairman Kassar, in accepting, said: “I wish to thank our State Committee for placing the faith in me to serve a second term. Together with the officers, Executive Committee, and members we will meet the challenges of the next two years as we met the many challenges of the past two. I am confident we will see victories and with that a much-needed impact on government.”
The following officers were also elected yesterday, Shaun Marie Levine (Albany County) as the Executive Vice-Chairman, Howard Lim, Jr. (Westchester County) as Secretary and Frances T. Vella-Marrone (Kings County) as Treasurer.

President Trump to Nominate Supreme Court Justice Saturday
President Donald Trump has announced he will move to fill the vacancy in the Supreme Court in 2020.
The President has a constitutional and moral obligation to fill the seat. Frankly, a potential 4-4 deadlock on a ruling in the Supreme Court is not something we should risk. Since 1869 the number of Justices has been set at nine and we must ensure the highest court in the land continues to operate the way it was intended to.
It is imperative a conservative voice is added to the Supreme Court to ensure fairness, common sense, and prevent a far-left radical Justice the left would surely nominate.
It has become clear the votes are there in the United States Senate to confirm a new Justice. The President was elected nearly 4 years ago by voters who wanted to put him in charge of nominations for the Supreme Court. It is his duty as Commander in Chief to fulfill his obligation and protect the integrity of the Constitution.
AOC Promoting Full NYC Socialist Agenda
Democratic Socialists of America-NYC chapter will be looking to run and support a slate of City Council candidates who would create a “socialist caucus” in the New York City Council.
The already Democratic controlled council will see 35 new members in 2021 running to fill term limited seats. Only 16 of the current members are eligible to run for re-election and a far left of left push is being made to pack the Council with self-proclaimed socialists.
Recently, in a gross display of anti-Semitism, the DSA asked potential candidates on their questionnaire if they would pledge to not visit Israel.
The DSA has also pledged to:
“Confront Gov. Andrew Cuomo and push the state Legislature to tax the rich to help fund the Green New Deal and New York Health Act, legislation that would create a government-run, single-payer health insurance system and to prevent state cuts in public services. “In the face of an austerity budget, many of our campaigns will lend their weight to a demand on the state government to tax the rich, putting us directly in the cross hairs of Andrew Cuomo. We welcome his hatred. Remaining resolute now is the time to expand the public sector, to provide social housing, public power [energy/utility supplier].”
“Use the COVID-related housing crisis to “cancel” rent, thus squeezing landlords of revenue and forcing them to give up their properties and “exit the market” — and have the state acquire the properties and convert them to public housing. Its housing agenda also includes “undermining” the real estate industry’s already diminished clout in the Democrat-run state Legislature.”
Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez has become the face of this movement, a movement that NYC cannot afford. Their first move will surely be to defund the NYPD to the level of a small-town police department, if not abolish the police all together. They will chase taxpayers out of New York City, leaving a higher burden to the middle class. New York will most certainly become one of the most dangerous big cities in America.
The DSA threat is a threat we should take seriously in NYC in 2021. The future of our families and our city hinges on 35 City Council seats.
More Than A Candidate
New York State Assembly Candidate Lawrence Chiulli (@Lawrence4Ny) was in the right place at the right time.
Just weeks ago, a young boy found himself in a horrifying situation as he held on for his life on the side of a Hudson Valley cliff in Westchester.
A 10-year-old boy was hiking with members of his family when he got separated from them. In a panic, and a stroke of luck, the family came across Chiulli who searched for the boy.
Chiulli, a former Eagle Scout, found him clinging on to the side of Bear Mountain in a treacherous position and growing weak from hanging on for so long.
Lawrence was able to maneuver down the steep mountain side and grab onto the boy, helping him reposition until help could arrive.
I would like to commend Lawrence for his bravery and willingness to spring into action without hesitation. His selflessness, quick thinking and bravery preserved a young life.
Quick Piece of Importance
NY state to review any Trump-authorized COVID vaccine for ‘safety’ before use: Cuomo. This says the man who sent COVID-19 patients back to nursing homes knowing full well that it would spread like fire through dry grass. New Yorkers deserve a Governor that puts the health of her citizens first and not one that puts politics first. Creating a new “Clinical Advisory Task Force” can lead to delays in getting a critical vaccine to those who need it; while no one is being mandated to have the vaccine.
Candidate Spotlight Alexis Weik
Growing up in Ronkonkoma and Oakdale, and currently residing in Sayville, Alexis has stayed true to her roots. A wife and mother of three, Alexis knows the true sacrifice our law enforcement officers make each and every day, experiencing it firsthand through her husband and oldest son who are in law enforcement.
Active in many local civic and educational groups in addition to being the elected Islip Receiver of Taxes, Alexis is a fighter and our choice in New York’s 3rd Senate District to oust far left liberal and Governor Cuomo loyalist Monica Martinez.
We cannot afford a Democratic controlled State Senate. In less than 2 years, they’ve given us disastrous bail reform, they’ve released multiple convicted cop killers and have promised to raise taxes.
We need common sense representation that will make New York an easier, safer place to live and raise a family.
A devoted wife and mother to four adult children, Liz is an advocate and fighter for our constitutional freedoms. Liz will not be absent from her district, nor afraid to do the work on behalf of the constituents in New York’s 20th Congressional District.
Liz is no stranger to a fight, in the fall of 2018, she single-handedly fought off knife yielding man intent on doing fatal harm. After engaging in hand-to-hand combat, she was able to call for help, undoubtedly saving the life of at least one person.
Strong on the right to life, the southern border, jobs, and the economy, Liz will represent NY20 with humility and grace, and an open heart, always remembering the congressional seat belongs to the people of her district, not the representative.

If my memory serves me right, every year we see headlines like this: DiNapoli: New York paid over $700M in improper Medicaid benefits. When will this incompetence end? If Medicaid was a private corporation, does anyone think it would continue? Yet the Democrats want government to be in control of health care. Simply mindboggling!
From National Review: Will Biden’s Delaware Become Biden’s America? “I’m a young Delawarean who didn’t get to experience life with duPont, General Motors, or the banking boom, but I come from a multi-generation family of Delawareans who remember when this was the place to be. In my 24 years here, I’ve seen enough to know that we don’t want the rest of America to resemble the current First State.”
Desperate to appeal to their base but really to hold on to power, House Democrats roll out anti-corruption package aimed at curbing presidential powers. (“Mr. Schiff, though, was optimistic that their reforms would gain bipartisan support if Joseph R. Biden, the Democratic nominee, wins in November. He really lives on his own planet in his own little world.) Speaker Pelosi must live on the same planet, why else would the Speaker of the House revert to this?
Message to Governor Andrew Cuomo and Mayor de Blasio: it isn’t the weather that is driving New Yorkers to move, it is the policies you endorse that is producing the exodus from New York. People that are fleeing are seeking localities that uphold and enforce laws that protect their citizens. New York’s political leaders must wake up. When New Yorkers see this headline, they question why they would stay in a city/state that is not committed to protecting them. Of course, people who do not have the opportunity to move, must make their voices heard on election day, November 3, 2020. If you have been silent and not voting in the past, take an active roll this year. Not registered to vote? Click here to register, then follow up that your registration is valid. (If you must, you can apply for an absentee ballot here, but voting in person is the only way to be certain your vote is counted.) Voting on the Conservative Party line sends a strong message – that you are fed up with the direction this socialist movement is heading – and you want leaders that will stand up to the bullies demanding utopia at your expense. Enough is enough; vote in person on November 3, 2020.
This is written by the democratic candidate (who won the June 23 Primary) for the 25th State Senate District, who will win on Nov. 3, 2020 because, unfortunately, the district is so democrat heavy, it is understandable that no one stepped up to the plate to run on the Republican or Conservative Lines. This is a big part of the problem that New Yorkers face. Why is this policy a problem? Read this. He won the Democratic primary with 33,510 votes (the runner up had 20,229 and the total number of votes cast in the primary was 61,118.) There are 257,080 registered voters in the district and quite frankly, the 33,510 votes that drove him to victory on June 23 are the ones who decided who would represent the 351,552 people who live in the district. As the NY Post editorial above states: Wake up, New York – or the Democratic socialists really will take over.
Today’s Riots Comparable to ‘Late Stage’ Violence of ’60s, ’70s, however, we survived and revived the American spirit then; and we can again, despite the current bleak outlook. Our voices must be heard on election day; part of the difference between then and now is that many of the elected officials of today are the some of those who were part of the violence of the ‘60s and ‘70s who look the other way, many are professors in our colleges who have revised history to their liking and far too many do not take the time to vote. Make your voice heard on November 3, 2020. Wake up, New York – or the Democratic socialists really will take over.
Speaker Pelosi is on a power campaign; the Speaker no longer represent what is legal according to the US Constitution when outlining what her plans are. Pelosi doesn’t rule out impeachment to delay Trump’s Supreme Court pick. Perhaps Speaker Pelosi needs a refresher course in anti-bullying…and the US Constitution.
More bullying from another NY Congressman, Jerry Nadler, who has overstayed his welcome in Congress. Term limits, when enacted, with your help, will force them out of office before their lust for power undermines the balance of power the US Constitution envisioned.
Here is another WSJ article that should not be behind a pay wall: The Hospital Lobbyists Behind Cuomo’s Nursing Home Scandal, because it has such important information. If you do not have a subscription to WSJ you can get a good amount of the background by checking out Mr. Hammond’s Twitter feed: @NYHammond. At some point, it will be posted on EmpireCenter.org (hopefully before November 3) and we will post it then.
Patriotic education is on the way in response to the democrats pushing their “1619 Project” which aims to educate students through indoctrination from liberal teachers and professors.
“I will soon sign an executive order establishing a national commission to promote patriotic education. It will be called the ‘1776 Commission’,” Trump said Thursday. The commission will encourage our educators to teach your children about the miracle of American history and make plans to honor the 250th anniversary of our founding in the year 2026 said President Trump.
At a time when our students are being educated by far-left liberals, being taught a revisionist version of history, being stripped of learning about where we have come from, how far we have gone, and promoting disdain for our country, this is very welcomed news from the President and his administration.
An accurate, truthful education should not be political and I look forward to this program being put into action. We, like every other country in the world, have come a long way. We must not strip students of an accurate education and allow them to form their own opinions without bias.
Trump Administration Celebrates Abraham Accords
On Tuesday the President was joined by Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and the foreign ministers of the United Arab Emirates and Bahrain in what was a historic day for the four nations as they signed the Abraham Accords officially formalizing relations between Israel and the two Arab states in a deal brokered by the United States.
This is another massive foreign policy win for President Trump and he hinted they weren’t done bringing other nations to the table and plan to normalize relations with “at least five or six” other nations.
Months leading up to his election and in the years since he became President, we have heard from the Democrats on countless occasions on how America and our interests wouldn’t be safe under a President Donald Trump. Well, we have learned that couldn’t be further from the truth as his administration continues to broker peace deal after peace deal, withdraw troops from endless wars and promote peace through power all over the world.
The facts are this, the world is a safer place than it was four years ago and this President has earned a second term.
Candidate Spotlight
This week I am happy to spotlight two candidates who will be instrumental to our success this November.
Angi Renna is the Conservative/Republican candidate in New York States 50th Senate District. Angi comes from the financial planning world and specializes in helping those on the verge of retiring and seniors plan their financial futures.
The 50th District has been represented by a Conservative since 2003. Now, Angi Renna looks to fill the vacant seat, but faces a stiff challenge from far-left liberal John Mannion. Mr. Mannion makes no attempt to hide the fact that he will join in lock step with NYC liberal Senators who love writing taxpayer funded blank checks and allow the Governor to operate as more of a dictator and not a public servant.
In New York’s 41st Senate District, Senator Sue Serino has been an avid supporter of law enforcement and has sponsored countless bills in support of police and has been a leading public health advocate. Senator Serino led the charge in 2019 as she pushed her colleagues in Albany to support additional funding, research, and preventatives to help those suffering from Lyme and tick-borne diseases throughout New York State.
Albany is a better place with legislators like Senator Serino working tirelessly to advocate for good on behalf of her district and New York as a whole.
We hear every election cycle that it’s “the most important” election of our lifetime. Well, 2020 is the most important election of our lifetime, there is no denying it. The left has attempted to bully conservatives into submission through rioting, looting, and lawlessness. Common sense must prevail this November. We cannot continue to hemorrhaged residents to other states. We must get back to keeping all politics local and ensuring our representatives in Albany are working for us, not trying to out progressive their democratic colleagues.
