Carl Heastie puts Unions and Criminals over Children and Safety

 

NYGOP Chair Ed Cox released the following statement in response to the release of polling data demonstrating that Assembly Speaker Carl Heastie’s constituents overwhelmingly support charter schools and cash bail for criminals:

“New Yorkers are demanding safe streets and better schools, but Speaker Heastie listens only to Albany’s special interests and power players. He pays lip service to the needs of his constituents but puts teachers unions’ clout and cash ahead of the parents and children of the Bronx, where the people want more charter schools, and he puts progressive ideologues, who threaten primaries, ahead of public safety for New York’s families and small businesses.”
