Check out the latest from NYGOP Volume 62 | June 26th, 2022 This Week at the NYGOP Follow Us On Social Media! Dear Friend, This Tuesday, June 28th, is Primary Election Day in New York! Unless you voted early, this will be your chance to make your voice heard and elect our Republican nominee to defeat Kathy Hochul in November! Every day that passes, more and more New Yorkers realize our unelected governor is in way over her head. New Yorkers are suffering and we need a leader who will tackle the state's affordability and crime crises. Our New York Republican Party Designee, Congressman Lee Zeldin, has been crisscrossing this state for over a year taking our message of common sense and public safety to every community from Montauk to Buffalo. He has made one thing clear: This is a mission to #SaveOurState and losing is NOT an option. Getting out to VOTE this Tuesday puts us one step closer to ending destructive one-party rule in New York and putting the people back in control of their government. We are at a critical moment in time because every day that goes by, gas prices and inflation get higher, mothers can't find formula for their babies, and innocent lives are being killed by career criminals in our streets. While Manhattan DA Bragg is letting criminals off the hook at every turn, the Queens DA, Melinda Katz, is abusing her security detail and government resources, using them as her own personal moving company. They both should be spending their time and resources trying to get the Democrat Party’s crime crisis under control. The proof is in the polls. The Democrats' numbers, even in the most liberal polls, are tanking and people are desperate for an alternative to the radical left agenda. That is where our strong Republican ticket comes in. We have the vision and solutions to create a strong and prosperous New York. If you're sick of watching New York slip into decline, this is your chance to set us on a new path. If you're sick of taxpayers getting disrespected and criminals being coddled, this is your chance to set a new path. Let's build on our successes of last year and turn 2022 into a RED TSUNAMI!

Candidate Of The Week Anil Beephan Candidate for State Assembly District 105 Website Facebook Twitter Instagram Donate Anil has been committed to public service since his teenage years. He began his life in public service as a youth summer missionary and he later served as a volunteer fighter for over eight years. From there, he took on the role of Community Relations Specialist for the 41st Senate District where he received insight into legislative affairs in Albany and had the opportunity to become deeply involved in the local area. ​ Anil’s passion for public service, transparency, and accessible representation made an impression on voters who elected him East Fishkill Town Councilman in 2018. During his tenure, Anil helped countless East Fishkill constituents with local and state issues while keeping his community informed with vital information. He even launched the #HometownHotspots tour to showcase local small businesses and non-profits and to create an open dialogue on becoming better government partners. Dismayed by the media-driven national resentment of law enforcement during the pandemic, Anil also went on to create the ‘Hudson Valley Goes Blue in Support of Law Enforcement’ initiative that spurred thousands of Hudson Valley residents to turn their porch lights blue as a sign of support and respect for our heroes in uniform. ​ If elected to the New York State Assembly, Anil pledges to continue putting his constituents first. Albany is in desperate need for common sense and stability, and Anil is here to deliver. Anil will keep fighting to rebuild New York into the safe, affordable, and inclusive home it once was. To help return New York to its heyday, Anil will constantly work to unify the Republican party and to make a genuine bipartisan effort to pass sensible legislation while repealing unconstitutional and dangerous bills like the SAFE Act and Bail Reform. NYGOP Must See News: Queens DA Katz dodges questions as GOP calls for probe into ‘misuse’ of NYPD detail New York Post Sources familiar with Katz’s routine said that members of her security detail also had been hauling flat-screen TVs, groceries and dry cleaning around for her, as well as loading her sons’ bicycles and sports gear into an official SUV, driving the family away and returning several hours later. On Sunday, her office defended her use of the detail, saying it was part of the job. Nick Langworthy, the chair of the New York State Republican Committee, roasted Katz, accusing the DA of acting like she’s above the law. “Whaddya know, another Democrat prosecutor who doesn’t believe in the rule of law,” Langworthy told The Post. “Instead of abusing her taxpayer-funded detail for personal errands, she should be spending her time and resources trying to get her Democrat Party’s crime crisis under control.” Read Full Here NY’s new restriction on body vests touted by Hochul hardly bullet-proof New York Post Republican Party state chair Nick Langworthy likened the legislation to something disgraced ex-Gov. Andrew Cuomo might have championed as governor before Hochul took over following his resignation last August. “This is right out of the Cuomo playbook — rush to pass meaningless laws to get a news headline without doing anything to actually solve problems. Reason 10,000 why we need new leadership in New York,” Langworthy, who is currently running for Congress, said in a statement Monday. The governor is also feeling the heat from Democratic primary rival Tom Suozzi, who accused her of prioritizing politics over substance ahead of the June 28 gubernatorial primaries. “Hochul’s political response to a serious policy issue has once again put New Yorkers at risk,” Suozzi said in a statement. A Hochul spokeswoman did not provide comment by publication time. Read Full Here Gang shootout blamed for NYC mass shooting that killed college basketball star ABC7 NY A 21-year-old college basketball star was killed and eight others shot when gunfire erupted in Harlem, believed to be a gang-related shootout. Family and friends of 21-year-old Darius Lee, the man killed at the late-night barbecue, spoke out as police continued searching for the gunmen. "He's an innocent kid," Lee's sister, Tiara Weaver, said. "He decided to stay outside one day, and this is what happens." Lee was a 2018 graduate of St. Raymond High School in the Bronx and was attending Houston Baptist University on a full scholarship. He was a star on the basketball teams of both schools and was set to graduate college next year. "He was a pure soul, so kind," cousin Thailyn Lee said. "Wasn't into the streets or nothing. He was all about basketball. He didn't deserve none of this." His family, friends, coaches, and teammates honored him Monday night in Harlem and Houston. "We are heartbroken and devastated to learn of the senseless passing of Darius Lee, class of 2018," St. Raymond officials said in an Instagram post: Our prayers and condolences go out to his family at this time, and we pray for his eternal rest with our Lord. Aside from being a tremendous basketball star, he was a phenomenal human being, and a young man living such a positive life, succeeding in school, on the court, and in life. These senseless acts of violence need to stop...such a tragedy." Lee was shot and killed after gunfire erupted at a cookout along the Harlem River drive around 12:30 a.m. Monday.

The likelihood of a recession has increased rapidly this year as inflationary pressures remained strong and the Federal Reserve took increasingly aggressive action to tame them.

Read Full Here ‘Hypocritical’ defund NYPD advocate moved out of Harlem for ‘safety issues’ New York Post A left-wing state lawmaker who has pushed for cutting police funding first moved to the district she is seeking to represent in Congress because “safety issues” near “the projects” in Harlem prompted her to shack up with her tech bro then-fiancé in the Financial District, The Post has learned. Assemblywoman Yuh-Line Niou (D-Lower Manhattan) told a local publication in 2016 — when she was campaigning to initially get elected to her current seat — that she headed to the wealthier Manhattan neighborhood because she witnessed a pair of disturbing crimes and fell victim to one. “I actually was robbed when I was living in Harlem. My boyfriend at the time, my fiancé, didn’t think I was safe up there, so he told me to move in, and so that’s how I moved to the Financial District with him,” she explained in an interview with the Lo-Down NY. “He was already living there.” Read Full Here Ready to take back our state?
