New Yorkers deserve lower energy costs, relief from the nation's highest taxes, and a state government that actually listens to YOUR concerns instead of ignoring them. I’m running for State Assembly with a clear plan to bring common sense back to Albany. I’d be honored to earn your vote this November.

My opponent wants to write the laws in Albany, but he couldn't even follow the law when it came to paying his own state income taxes. Public office demands accountability, and that starts with following the same laws as everyone else. If you want to make the laws, you should follow them first.

Big Tech has made billions while too many parents are left dealing with the damage social media is doing to our kids. We need to hold these companies accountable, stop handing them taxpayer-funded breaks, and give parents stronger tools to protect their children online. In the State Assembly, I’ll fight to put New York families ahead of Big Tech’s bottom line.

New Yorkers are tired of Kathy Hochul's Albany circus, and Phillip Fleming wants to join the show. High taxes, skyrocketing utility bills, and out-of-control spending are no laughing matter. I'm running to clean up the clown show and bring common sense back to Albany.

New Yorkers are paying the highest electricity rates in the country, and Kathy Hochul keeps pushing energy policies that make things worse. Families shouldn't have to worry about whether they can afford to heat their homes this winter. It's time to put an end to Hochul's costly energy agenda.

Proud to have the full support and endorsement of Assemblyman Jeff Gallahan! Jeff has spent the last six years fighting for our communities and standing up to Kathy Hochul's disastrous policies in Albany. I'm honored to have his trust and support as I work to continue that fight in the State Assembly!

Figures cover domestic political ads paid in dollars, from 4 May 2026. Spend is the sum of Meta’s range midpoints; impressions above one million are reported as “1M+”, so impression figures are floors. Each ad counts in the week its delivery started, with its lifetime spend at our last pull; ads still running before the vote are counted as of 31 October 2026.
