I don't ever recall a time when we've been more divided. I wish it wasn't so and as State Senator, I'll do what I've always done -- bring people together to get things done. I have a long record of bipartisanship. As Westchester County Executive, I built a bipartisan coalition to cut property taxes, create 44,000 new jobs, and earn the highest credit rating of any county in the state. We also eliminated veterans homelessness, increased daycare slots, solar panel usage and recycling to record rates and preserved hundreds of acres in open space including at Stuart's Farm and Teatown Reservation. It's a record I'm proud of but I didn't do it alone. I brought Democrats and Republicans and community leaders together to make it happen.
The state is facing major challenges and now more than ever we need our leaders to come together to work on solutions.
