According to Martins’ campaign website, Martins’ priorities include the national migrant crisis, antisemitism, crime and safety, housing, congestion pricing and cost of living.

Martins said Democrat majorities in the State Senate and Assembly are now controlled by New York City’s radical, “progressives” who are working overtime to make sure our suburbs no longer have a voice in Albany.

Martins said he wants to hold Democrats accountable for their constant assault on our communities.

Martins said, as state senator, he helped usher in a new era for New York, one that delivered cooperation, on-time budgets, and the lowest state taxes in over 50 years.
