DIDI BARRETT FEELS THE BERN FOR ILLEGALS

Statement from Arnie Rothschild,
Spokesman for the Republican Assembly Campaign Committee (RACC)
Cutting local agriculture funding by 50 percent. Making it easier to cheat the welfare system.
Free Cadillac health care and insurance plans for illegal aliens. More funding for downstate
roads and bridges. Free college tuition for illegal aliens.
Those sound like things that middle-class families in the Hudson Valley wouldnt support. Youd
be surprised to know, however, that these are policies Didi Barrett helped pass on Monday. Its
amazing what more than $290,000 in New York City money to her campaign can buy.
The New York City Assembly Democrats on Monday proposed their state budget wish-list, and
Didi Barrett was right there to help pass the New York City plan.
Our elected officials should be working to make life better. That starts with lowering taxes,
making college more affordable for middle-class families, supporting our family farms, and
empowering businesses and families to continue to call New York home.
Its disappointing that Didi Barrett doesnt see it the same way.
