Thomas A. Jasiewicz was a 2014 Republican candidate for District 110 of the New York State Assembly.

Campaign themes

2014

Jasiewicz's campaign website highlighted the following issues:[1]

Economic Opportunity

  • Excerpt: "The mountains of bureaucratic red tape and regulations have stifled small business growth and have caused an exodus of families and businesses from our state. Small and family-owned businesses deserve better than that. We simply must do more to maintain our high quality of life and help our small businesses succeed."

Education

  • Excerpt: "We must do everything to make sure our children have the best opportunities to learn, grow and succeed, and the rollout of Common Core has made that goal less attainable. We don’t expect police officers or emergency responders to go without the tools they need to perform their jobs; this is precisely the situation in which Common Core has left our teachers, and our children are struggling because of that."

Tax Burden

  • Excerpt: "Simply put, we’re overtaxed. Our residents are nickel-and-dimed to death by our state’s oppressive tax structure. As your next assemblyman, I plan on working to change that."
  • Excerpt: "My ideas are as follows: doubling the STAR property-tax exemption for all homeowners, a move that would save the average homeowner an additional $700 annually and seniors $1,300, and 30 percent income tax rate cut for families making less than $300,000 per year, saving each middle-class taxpayer an average of $1,033 annually. Lower taxes means more money in your pocket, to be used as you best see fit."

The Right to Bear Arms

  • Excerpt: "As a law-abiding gun owner, I was outraged by the SAFE Act and its passage in the dead of night last year. This unconstitutional measure doesn’t solve the root issues of crime and only punishes outdoorsmen and gun owners who have done nothing wrong. Simply put, the SAFE Act must be repealed. As your assemblyman, I plan to fully repeal it."

Welfare Reform

  • Excerpt: "Public assistance should never be treated like a hand out; it should be used as a helping hand for our families in need during uncertain times. As your next assemblyman, I will work to ensure that public assistance is used by those who truly need it, and not abused by those taking advantage of your hard-earned tax dollars."
  • Excerpt: "This means enacting legislation to prevent EBT card abuse, prohibiting their usage at strip clubs and liquor stores, for purchasing lotto tickets and on illicit materials. It also means creating accountability, and ensuring able-bodied people seeking public assistance benefits are gainfully employed, or working to be as such to receive them."
