Running for Governor to Make New York Affordable & Cut Utility Bills in Half. #FireKathyHochul

[Bruce Blakeman @NassauExec]

I am the only Republican running for New York Governor against failed radical liberal Kathy Hochul.

Donate to my campaign to fight crime, cut taxes, put New York First, and defeat Kathy Hochul: https://t.co/XjO5cEsVaC

We wrapped up our Western New York swing in Buffalo and Chautauqua County.

Whether meeting with local entrepreneurs or the brave men and women who keep our communities safe, our mission remains clear: lower costs, back police, and restore common sense to New York State.

[Bruce Blakeman @NassauExec]

I was elected County Executive in a county with 110,000 more Democrats than Republicans because I stand for common sense.

I won re-election in a landslide due to my policies to cut taxes and improve public safety.

I have never been afraid to stand up for taxpayers, cross political party lines, or take on anyone I thought was wrong.

That is what I will bring to Albany when I am Governor.

[Bruce Blakeman @NassauExec]

Absolutely sick that Mamdani has more sympathy for violent criminals than their victims. As Governor, I’ll put victims and law-abiding New Yorkers FIRST.

[Bruce Blakeman @NassauExec]

We kept the momentum rolling across Monroe and Livingston counties. New Yorkers are ready for lower taxes, safer streets, and common-sense leadership that puts taxpayers first.

[Bruce Blakeman @NassauExec]

This is what Kathy Hochul’s New York is doing to our small businesses. One local business owner tells me PSEG is demanding an $18,500 security deposit and threatening to shut off service—even though the business is not in arrears and is already facing a nearly $12,000 electric bill. Governor Hochul’s energy policies have helped make New York increasingly unaffordable, and small business owners are paying the price. Enough is enough—New Yorker’s deserve relief, not higher costs.

[Bruce Blakeman @NassauExec]

When I’m Governor, we’ll put an end to Mamdani’s socialist grocery stores and stand up for small business.

🚨 SOCIALISM VS. THE LITTLE GUY — NEW YORK EDITION.

Mayor Mamdani wants the city to open government-owned grocery stores promising 30% discounts on basic staples.

Small business owners — many of them immigrants who built their bodegas from nothing — are fighting back with lawsuits.

Why?

Because you can’t compete with a store that:
• Doesn’t pay rent
• Doesn’t pay taxes
• Doesn’t pay the same insurance
• Uses your tax dollars to undercut you

One owner put it perfectly:
“We’re not afraid of competition. We’re afraid of unfair competition.”

Mamdani says it’s “only five stores.”

That’s how it always starts.

Frank Garcia and the Multicultural Business Coalition are leading the charge. These are the same communities that often get told they should vote Democrat… right before Democrats try to put them out of business with taxpayer-funded competitors.

This isn’t helping the poor.

It’s crushing the people who actually employ their neighbors and keep neighborhoods alive.

Socialism doesn’t create opportunity.

It destroys the ones who already created

[Bruce Blakeman @NassauExec]

This is a weaponized government at its absolute worst.
Hardworking immigrant supermarket owners spoke out against Zohran Mamdani’s plan for government-run grocery stores, and now they are suddenly getting slapped with selective city sanitation fines.

Small business owners pay the highest taxes in the nation and work tirelessly for their neighborhoods. They should not face political retaliation for standing up to socialists.

I am running for Governor to protect small businesses and New York taxpayers alike.

Immigrant businesses who spoke out against Mamdani supermarkets say they're getting hit with NYC sanitation fines https://t.co/E05aRaKk6a

Kathy Hochul is the reason your utility bill is higher than ever. Hochul approved 48 utility rate hikes, added new surcharges to your bill, and forced green energy mandates that sent our bills soaring 70% above the national average.

I am running for Governor to bring common-sense energy policy back to Albany. As Governor, I will cut utility bills in half and put New York taxpayers first.

[Bruce Blakeman @NassauExec]

Every stop across Western New York proved the same thing: New Yorkers are tired of Kathy Hochul’s tax hikes, utility rate hikes, and pro-criminal policies.

From backing our police at "We Ride for the Blue" to spending time with families at the Orleans County Picnic and checking out local history at the Genesee County Ag & Ed Museum Center, it was an honor to meet so many hard-working New Yorkers.

[Bruce Blakeman @NassauExec]

This is what happens when state and city leaders abandon law and order.

Law-abiding small business owners who pay their taxes, buy licenses, and follow labor laws are getting squeezed out, while illegal operations run wild without consequences.

While Kathy Hochul spends $4.5 billion of taxpayer money on illegal migrants and strips police of their power, law and order in New York is falling apart.

I am running for Governor to end sanctuary state policies, support our local police, and protect the small business owners and taxpayers who play by the rules.

[Wall Street Apes @WallStreetApes]

New York is becoming the third world under Zohran Mamdani

Unlicensed illegal food vendors are being staffed with illegal migrant children. The city allows these illegal vendors to operate with 8 year old illegal child workers

The licensed vendors are very upset by this because they have to be in a designated area and they have to abide by labor laws and pay licenses and taxes

Meanwhile the illegals can be right on the bridge and use child labor

Politicians and city leaders need to be arrested

[Bruce Blakeman @NassauExec]

Kathy Hochul prohibits our local law enforcement from cooperating with ICE, putting radical politics above public safety. Police officers and corrections officers are telling me the same thing: they feel abandoned by her. Hochul even fired 2,000 corrections officers for protesting unsafe conditions inside our prisons.

As Governor, I will repeal sanctuary state mandates, back law enforcement, restore order in our prison system, and give our frontline heroes the support they deserve.

[Bruce Blakeman @NassauExec]

It was an honor to visit the Daniel Pierce Library in Sullivan County.

What a beautiful space for our children to learn, read, and for families to get a brief escape from daily life. This entire library was built through the generosity and hard work of local community members, serving as a true testament to what New Yorkers can achieve when we come together.

[Bruce Blakeman @NassauExec]

Kathy Hochul is beholden to NYC’s Socialist Mayor Zohran Mamdani.

Mamdani asked for $5 billion to bail out NYC without requiring a single penny in spending cuts, and Hochul fell right in line. She gave away your hard-earned tax dollars.

I’m running for Governor to end the blank checks, cut government waste, and protect your hard-earned money.

[Bruce Blakeman @NassauExec]

Kathy Hochul should be ashamed of herself for using racist stereotypes about black kids. I will admit to everyone, that there is no 12 year old Black kid in New York State that's worse at a computer than me.

[Bruce Blakeman @NassauExec]

In-state tuition. Scholarships. Grants. Those opportunities should go to YOUR kids first.

New York taxpayers are footing the bill for illegal migrants while their own children get pushed to the back of the line.

[Bruce Blakeman @NassauExec]

Mamdani supporter Hasan Piker says America deserved 9-11. He says get the Jews. He is a hater. Mamdani—Hochul’s partner in the destruction of New York—counts America hater Hasan Piker as a supporter and friend. The same way Hochul sees Mamdani. What are you going to do about it?

[Bruce Blakeman @NassauExec]

Small businesses need our help to keep downtown storefronts open and keep our neighbors employed. The only way to help them escape from their crushing electric bills is to vote for me as your next governor in November.

[Bruce Blakeman @NassauExec]

The proof is right there on your electric bill! Kathy Hochul can blame whoever she wants, but New Yorkers are paying the price for her failed green energy scams, subsidizing solar farms while YOUR electric bills keep climbing. This ends on day one when I become Governor.

[American Anne @Anne8065]

Now I AM PISSED! Most of these charges on my current National Grid bill are for your Chinese solar fields.
Hochul lies!!

[Bruce Blakeman @NassauExec]

Five years of Kathy Hochul’s failures are costing your wallet dearly. No more excuses. It’s time to fire Kathy Hochul. New York deserves better.
