  • Families are paying more and more just to keep the lights on. I never set out to be a politician. That’s why when NYSEG tried to give me money, I sent it back. Josh Riley stayed silent while utility costs skyrocketed and PROFITING off his NYSEG stock. The choice is clear. I’ll always fight for Upstate New York - not the special interests.

  • DEFUND ORES. No state agency should have the power to override local communities and force massive solar projects onto Upstate farmland and open space. Our neighbors, farmers, and local leaders deserve a real voice when it comes to protecting our land and our way of life. Restore local control. Hold ORES accountable. #DefundORES #ProtectUpstateNY #Localcontrol
