New York 2014 State Legislative

Dear Supporter,

Campaign for Liberty gave candidates for State Senate an opportunity to provide a straight answer to the following questions. The candidates’ answers can be seen below the list of questions. Because the vast majority of states do not include 3rd party candidates in the Primary process, Campaign for Liberty policy is to survey 3rd party candidates for General elections, except in Jungle Primary states.

Survey Questions

1. Do you oppose the use of unmanned law enforcement devices being used to penalize citizens?

2. Will you support a “Constitutional Carry” bill that would allow any law-abiding citizen to carry a firearm concealed without a permit?

3. Do you support the “Right to Work,” which states that no worker can be forced to join or pay union dues as a condition of getting or keeping a job?

4. Will you support legislation that would allow school vouchers and school tax credits?

5. Will you oppose all tax and fee increases?

6. Do you support fair contract negotiations for taxpayers in New York State by supporting a repeal of the Triborough Amendment?

7. Do you support repeal of the so called SAFE Act?
