Sick and tired of Albany politicians wasting your money?
Are property taxes driving you or your friends from New York? Forcing your children to relocate?
Do you believe both Democrats and Republicans in Albany care more about their interests than yours?
Three years ago, a group of concerned citizens formed an organization called New Yorkers for Growth to address these issues head-on.
New Yorkers for Growth (NYFG) is a political action committee committed to responsible fiscal policies in New York State government. We believe that excessive taxation and government spending are driving jobs, people, and businesses out of New York State.
NYFG supports candidates for the New York State Legislature who, regardless of party, vote for: 1) Lower taxes;
2) Reduced reliance upon debt;
3) Reform of State and local government spending practices;
4) Structural fiscal reform, including common sense pension reforms.
Since NYFG's inception, we've been the driving force in New York in electing fiscal conservatives to state and local offices. In 2009, NYFG was a major force leading to the election of Westchester County Executive Rob Astorino . We look forward to similar influence and success on Election Day 2010, but we need your help.
By any measure, New York imposes higher taxes, with more intrusive regulatory strictures, than any other state.
That has driven thousands of business and families out of state.
Western New York has experienced actual population declines. Indeed, the Empire State is shrinking because of counterproductive policy choices being made in Albany. Six of our counties rank in the top ten nationally for highest property taxes. Westchester County families pay the highest property taxes in America three years running. We are ranked 49th out of 50 states in job friendliness.
New Yorkers for Growth has responded by backing policies that begin to restore our economy and turn things around.
Please join us in our fight.
NYFG prides itself on low overhead and direct support to the candidates we believe will structurally reform New York's woeful fiscal policy.
New Yorkers for Growth has endorsed a slate of candidates for New York State Senate and Assembly who reflect our values.
