2026 New York General Election

One such example is the legislation introduced over a year ago by the Republican conference to eliminate state taxes on tipped wages. I am proud to cosponsor this legislation, because it’s a real solution that would allow residents to keep more of their earnings.

Put Taxpayers First

Raging inflation is making it harder for Long Islanders to make ends meet. As a Village official, Patricia worked to hold the line on taxes. In the Senate, she’ll be our fiscal watchdog, working to stop runaway state spending, cut taxes and make the return of STAR rebate checks for homeowners permanent.

Economy

The first proposal would delay implementation of the CLCPA by 10 years, which would allow policymakers to better formulate a plan to transition to clean energy without burdening ratepayers. It would also allow for greater flexibility in adjusting time frames to ensure that the grid is both affordable and, most important, reliable, and able to handle the additional demands of a society powered solely by clean energy.

Another proposal would prevent power-generation facilities from being closed before a new one comes online. This common-sense practice is necessary for the revamping of our grid to truly be a responsible transition.

Given the substantial taxes that the state already collects, this transition shouldn’t be shouldered by everyday ratepayers. Instead, our Ratepayer Relief Act would determine the cost of CLCPA mandates and reimburse ratepayers with tax credits, as well as cutting taxes, to save ratepayers more than $100 million.

My proposal within this package would offer homeowners an additional $5,000 tax credit to install solar, as well as a new solar School Tax Relief, or STAR, credit for communities that opt to build small to midsized solar projects. Further, my bill would re-establish, and strengthen, local control of the siting of major renewable energy projects, something that seems to be of little importance to Gov. Kathy Hochul.

But this half-measure isn’t enough. We must advance legislation that includes transparency by utility companies, limitations on rate increases, and realistic deadlines so families aren’t forced to pay the price for policies that move faster than technology, infrastructure and New Yorkers’ wallets can support.

Back the Blue

As a mother, Patricia knows the importance of keeping our families safe. As Malverne’s former Police Commissioner, she understands that enacting common sense laws and standing with law enforcement makes a difference. In the Senate, she will oppose Defund the Police, and repeal bail and other laws that put dangerous criminals back on our streets.
