As a resident of the 40th state Senate District, I will proudly cast my vote to re-elect state Sen. Peter Harckham. Pete has a proven record of commitment to his constituents. I am very grateful for his many accomplishments.
As a senior citizen who has lived in northern Westchester for 40 years now, I appreciate Harckham’s efforts to ensure affordability. Harckham helped pass the current state budget with no new tax increases and a continuation of the middle-class tax cut. In fact, under Pete’s leadership, we have seen middle class taxes cut five times!
As a grandparent, I appreciate his commitment to young families, including tax incentives for affordable housing and the child tax credit. At the same time, he has worked to ensure a substantial increase in funding for our public schools. This increase of $210 million not only improves the quality of local education, but it has helped us avoid huge property tax increases while keeping our schools strong. Under Pete, the senior property tax exemption has doubled.
Pete has delivered $30 million to the 40 municipalities in District 40, including $8 million to first responders and nonprofit service providers. He actively supports veterans, like my husband. We are safer with Pete Harckham in the state Senate. He is committed to reproductive freedom and environmental protection.
Please join me in voting for Peter Harckham for State Senate, District 40.
Thank you,
Susan Polos
