Richard Brodsky Receives More Support From Upstate New York

Syracuse Mayor Stephanie Miner joins Assembly Members Hoyt, Schroeder and Gabryszak in Endorsing campaign

White Plains – The Brodsky for Attorney General campaign announced today endorsements from Syracuse Mayor Stephanie Miner as well as Assembly Members Sam Hoyt, Mark Schroeder and Dennis Gabryszak.  Each made the following statements regarding their endorsements:

Mayor Miner stated, “Richard knows Syracuse.  He has helped us rein in public authorities and uncovered corrupt land deals at the Canal Corporation.  He’s a real reformer who knows upstate.  I’m proud to endorse him.”

Assemblyman Hoyt stated, “He’s been the single most effective reformer in Albany. He can fix Albany just like he fixed public authorities.  We need change, and Richard knows how to get it done.”

Assemblyman Schroeder said, “He’s been to western New York many, many times and he understands our economies’ problems.  We need an Attorney General who will represent western New York and Richard is that person.”

Assemblyman Gabryszak said, “His work on property tax reform will help every tax payer in Erie County.  We need an AG who will deal with the issues that effect people in their daily lives.  Property taxes, environmental health, reform in Albany; he’ll lead the change.”

In response to these endorsements, Brodsky stated, “I’m grateful to Stephanie, Sam, Mark and Dennis for their support. We’ve got real statewide momentum because I’ve been across the state with an agenda that will improve the lives of New Yorkers.  Property tax reduction, hydropower for jobs, reform of the Thruway Authority, the things I’ve done show the things I will do. We’re going to win, and for all the right reasons.”
