The need to protect and grow jobs in New York is more important now than ever before. Claudia has worked relentlessly to stop job killing legislation and regulations in our state. In the state legislature she voted against the governor's Big Government cronyism program, START-UP NY, which has been proven to be ineffective and is only hurting existing New York businesses and driving jobs out of our state by favoring outsiders through massive taxpayer subsidies. In Congress, Claudia supported rolling back a record number of business-burdening regulations. She will continue to take the same relentless energy back to Washington to unleash free market principles by getting big government off our backs.
As a small manufacturing business owner, Claudia understands the struggles of owning and operating a business. Claudia knows that we must embrace the spirit of entrepreneurship and free markets to allow our small businesses to thrive. In Washington, she will continue to oppose all unnecessary and burdensome regulations and taxes on businesses and individuals.
