It was a pleasure to join Assemblyman Matt Simpson & Speaker Carl Heastie on an historic day in Lake George to celebrate the opening of the new Shepard Park Amphitheater, rebuilt after the 2024 fire & ready to once again host concerts, festivals & community events.

With a redesigned stage framing the lake, this venue is renewed & ready for its next chapter. 

This was a tremendous collaboration between local, state, & community partners. The Assembly was proud to support this project. Congratulations to the entire community of Lake George.

The Greater New York Hospital Association deposited $1.5M into the NYS Democratic Party's "housekeeping account," effectively controlled by Gov. Hochul, on June 29.

That's the largest single political donation the famously powerful lobby has ever made to a NY committee.

WE ARE SO BACK.

Turn the volume up.
Stand for the nation.
Sing every word.

For the 250th time…
Happy Birthday America. 🇺🇸

Happy Fourth of July!

For 250 years, the United States of America has stood as a beacon of opportunity and freedom. On this historic milestone, Americans unite to celebrate of the greatest country the world has ever known.

God Bless America.

[Republican Leader Ed Ra @EdwardRa19]

Happy Independence Day! 🇺🇸

I'm proud to celebrate our nation’s 250th birthday – a moment to reflect on the enduring spirit of the American people, the freedoms we share, and the cherished history we honor today.

🎉 happy birthday @balogun! 🎉

BREAKING: The USMNT's win against Bosnia-Herzegovina averaged 24.4 million viewers on Fox, peaking at 31.8 million.

That makes it the most-watched soccer telecast in English-language U.S. history.

Assembly Republicans have repeatedly stressed the importance of a reliable energy grid.

We warned of the potential life-threatening impact of the grid’s failure during an extreme weather event.

On cue, we have a failure during a stretch of days when temperatures will reach 100 in parts of the state.

Decisions in Albany have consequences.

While Democrats are happy to gamble with our energy future to satiate liberal climate activists, Assembly Republicans are demanding a more reliable, responsible & realistic energy approach.

Another ranking confirms what we already know: N.Y. is one of the most expensive childcare states in the U.S.

The @NYS_AM has a plan that would save the average family of 4 an estimated $2,336 annually! The cost of safe, reliable childcare shouldn't equal a mortgage payment.

Our proposal begins with investment in the childcare system, expanding access & tackling affordability for working families.

New York’s Democratic Party is headed in one clear direction – the extreme left.

As Democrats embrace more radical politics, Republicans will continue to be the voice for common-sense, hardworking New Yorkers.

If the allegations in this federal lawsuit are true (and some of them clearly are), the Hochul administration's overhaul of CDPAP, an $11 billion Medicaid home care program, was an even bigger fiasco than it appeared to be -- which is saying a lot

[Republican Leader Ed Ra @EdwardRa19]

NY's budget process consistently lacks transparency, urgency, and is fueled by dysfunction.

When the most important work is done in the least-effective way, it's a failure.

Albany has to do better.

[NYS Assembly Republican Conference @NYS_AM]

Another great idea first championed by Assembly Republicans – reducing burdensome red tape, rules and regulations

We can’t stop now, as one of the nation’s worst states for its regulatory environment, New York needs an overhaul to reduce and eliminate rules

[Republican Leader Ed Ra @EdwardRa19]

When the @NYS_AM introduced the Lights on With Energy Relief (LOWER) Plan, we did so in response to utility bills hikes & growing energy concerns.

Our strategy: keep more money in NYers’ pockets & ensure the state’s energy future with an all-of-the-above approach while protecting consumer choice.

[Republican Leader Ed Ra @EdwardRa19]

On May 7, Gov. Hochul claimed a budget deal was done (it wasn’t) with total spending at $268 billion (it isn’t).

Without a full financial plan, Democrats passed the state budget without knowing the true cost.

They just know you’re paying for it.

[Republican Leader Ed Ra @EdwardRa19]

A father of 7 was shot and killed on a Bronx bus after asking a teenager to lower his voice.

Democrats’ Raise the Age has weakened accountability for violent juvenile offenders & put ideology ahead of public safety.

When consequences vanish, innocent NYers pay the price.

Albany’s backwards budgeting: Vote, pass, & then sign the state budget before a full financial picture is released.

Households & small businesses would be bankrupt if this is how they operated.

But Albany Democrats have the option of taxing residents into oblivion.

[Republican Leader Ed Ra @EdwardRa19]

DOB’s final financial plan shows a bigger budget than what was claimed: $277 billion - an increase of $9 billion.

My bill (A.3940) requires a financial plan BEFORE voting on budget bills. Albany’s backwards budget process needs to end.

[NYS Assembly Republican Conference @NYS_AM]

Conclusion of session marred by missed opportunities.

At the end of the day, New York is not a more affordable, safer or desirable place for families and businesses to call it home.
