Brabenec Issues Statement on Opening Day of 2019 Session
A legislative statement from Assemblyman Karl Brabenec (R,C,I-Deerpark)
January 9, 2019
I am honored to be back in Albany fighting our broken and regressive property-tax system, standing up for first responders, ensuring upstate infrastructure needs are met and rooting out government corruption by either party.
My excitement is quickly overshadowed by the stark political intentions of the ultra-liberal New York City voting bloc that now controls all three legislative houses making my job more important than ever. Â
We cant afford another tax increase, mandate or regulation if upstate is to recover from years of failed leadership. New York is infamously known as the highest exodus state and if these radicals succeed, we will own that title for a very long time.
