Campaign website
Henry's campaign website stated the following:
“ |
CRIME While New York faces a crime crisis, the current AG sued the NYPD and introduced legislation that would make it harder for law enforcement to do their jobs. How can you be the chief law enforcement officer in the state when you don’t believe in law enforcement?
Michael with root out corruption and restore professionalism to the Office of the Attorney General. For far too long, the office has been weaponized in service of political ambition. Michael is a professional attorney, not a career politician.
New York leads the nation in population loss because of one-party rule in Albany. The cost of living is driving hard-working families from their homes and as Attorney General, Michael will use the office to protect all New Yorkers. He will be a check on one-party rule and stand up on behalf of taxpayers.[1] |
