Those who make more will still pay more, and those who make less will pay less, everyone will contribute "their fair share". I do not support penalizing anyone, rich or poor, this has led to the export of millions of jobs and the ultimate loss of revenue. " (www.kyleforny19.com)

I'm proud to have the endorsement of Sheriff Butch Anderson and the support of many more police officers around the district. As your representative I will fight to give good law enforcement the tools they need to be effective, and I will always stand strong for the rights of each and every person living in NY19.".
