  • Excerpt: "...to add a voice of fiscal common-sense and sanity to what Ed Koch, NY Uprising, The Albany Project, and The Brennan Center for Justice at the NYU School of Law have said is the most dysfunctional and irresponsible State legislature in America..."
  • Excerpt: "...to honor a pledge to the people of New York to end gerrymandering. adopt honest budgets according to accepted accounting practices--on time, and to establish an independent Ethics Board to oversee violations..."
  • Excerpt: "...to encourage unions to return to their rightful place as the conscience of business--seeking justice for union workers--instead of serving to appease the greed of union officials..."
  • Excerpt: "...because Catherine Nolan can't and won't do these things..."
