RSLC Statement on New York Primary

Washington D.C. — Republican State Leadership Committee (RSLC) President Dee Duncan released the following statement in response to tonight’s primary results in New York:  

“Democrats in Albany are driving the cost of living through the roof with sky-high taxes, endangering citizens with disastrous bail reform, and are putting the desires of their teacher union allies over what is best for kids’ education. The impact of Democrats’ radical agenda has caused a mass exodus of historic proportions from the Empire State. The Republican state Assembly candidates nominated tonight are fired up to revitalize New York with innovative solutions to jumpstart the economy and get the state back on the right track. The RSLC is ready to invest the resources required to capture the momentum of the moment and help Republicans flip seats in the Assembly in November.”  

Background on RSLC in New York 

• Earlier this year, the RSLC named the New York Legislature as a top offensive target for 2022 where the committee will try to make meaningful gains.
• The committee has included New York in its “Biden Remorse” national ad campaign that began in April. The campaign targets Americans who regret voting for Joe Biden and his alleged “return to normalcy” in 2020, as they are now being dealt higher prices, a lack of control in their children’s education, and fear of crime in their once-safe neighborhoods. The three ads from this campaign that have run in New York include:
  • “Back to Normal”
  • “Biden Tax”
  • “Erased“
