Pass "Laken's Law"

NYS Senate Republicans have drafted legislation which would afford DHS notification of arrest information of illegal aliens, so that a detainer warrant can be issued to LLE so that violent illegal aliens are processed for removal from our communities after they have been adjudicated in NYS courts.
 

Stand with Israel

Ban face masks from being worn in public places, support the State of Israel and protect all citizens who are being harassed and, in some instances, physically assaulted by these so called “peaceful protesters.”

​Support Women's Sports

Women and girls are coming under attack for simply being female.  The NYS Board of Regents is considering allowing male athletes to join female athletic teams, which may cause both physical and mental injury to female athletes across New York.

Supporting a Statewide Animal Abuse Registry

Currently, New York lacks a comprehensive animal abuse registry, allowing offenders to move counties without detection. I support legislation to create a statewide registry, modeled after successful systems in other states, to ensure animal abusers are held accountable. This information should also be sharable across state lines, preventing offenders from exploiting interstate animal sales.

Short-Term Rentals: A Balanced Approach for Ecotourism and Local Property Owners

I support short-term rentals for the ecotourism and economic benefits they bring to our community, unlike my opponent, Michelle Hinchey, who seeks strict statewide regulations. My approach balances responsible use by allowing local property owners to supplement their income while protecting housing stock from corporate overreach. A staggered ownership plan ensures fair participation and long-term flexibility for property owners.

The State of Our State

For the past five years, the Democratic Party has had complete control of the NYS Senate.  The Democrat supermajority has proven itself over the past five years to be the party of pain for everyday New Yorkers. 

 

From pain at the pump and the checkout line to literal pain from the uptick in violence brought about by the “reforms” Democrats in Albany passed in 2019.  Closing Indian Point, banning the extraction of shale gas, eliminating cash bail for most criminal acts, these and many more “reforms” simply hurt our residents and our businesses. 

 

The NYS budget in 2019 was $170 Billion Dollars.  The Democrat Supermajority approved a budget for 2024 of $229 Billion Dollars.  Nearly $60 Billion Dollars higher than five years ago means higher costs for those of us still living working and raising our families here.

 

It’s no wonder that over 620,000 NYS residents have fled the Empire State in the past few years, only to be replaced with undocumented migrants, who do not add to our tax base, but simply take away safety net services that our citizens and veterans desperately need.

 

2019’s “most progressive and productive session that’s ever been in New York state,” according to Senate Dep. Majority Leader Gianaris, D-Queens, has come home to roost. 

 

The solution to New York’s dysfunction is to root out the problem: the Democrat supermajority.
