Hawley comments on opening of 2019 session

By Billie Owens
A legislative statement from Assemblyman Steve Hawley (R,C,I-Batavia):
 
“It is an honor and privilege to be back in Albany continuing the work we have done to reform our charitable gaming laws, meet upstate’s infrastructure needs, protect our vets, fully fund the Lake Ontario flood recovery efforts and empower small businesses.
 
“New York City politicians now control all three policy-making wings in Albany and I pledge to stand strong against any further tax increases, handouts to illegal aliens and big government expansion that has sent millions of our neighbors packing for greener pastures.
 
“New York is at a crossroads and it’s time that upstate flex its muscle at the table. Hardworking, middle-class families deserve a voice too and I will fight to make sure we are heard loud and clear.”

"Meet upstate' s infrastructure needs?" A loooong way from being "met." "fully funding lake Ontario flood recovery efforts?" How many times must the people pay for waterfront flooding? The lake levels are going to continue to rise. Even if you don't believe humans are responsible, global warming is happening. Waterfront landowners need to stop rebuilding there. The only way that will happen is if WE stop paying for their stupidity. Any movement on that front Hawley? Protecting our vets? How? By building a new cemetery? Then top it all off with claims of no tax increases while throwing money into lake Ontario? Yeah.
