As 10th grade students at Saratoga Springs High School, and hopefully future residents of New York State, we are concerned with the direction New York is headed. We recently read an article in USA Today that ranked NY State 3rd in the nation as “people leaving the state.” This mass exodus of people leaving NY in search of job opportunities and lower taxes elsewhere is bothersome to say the least. Increasing our taxes, as supported by one current candidate for Congress, will only make this problem worse! We need to vote Elise Stefanik for Congress because she has never, and will never, vote for a tax increase. Congresswoman Stefanik will continue to fight for upstate New York’s small businesses and farms, as well as our military. This is why everyone needs to get out and vote for Congresswoman Stefanik on November 6. It’s not too late to turn NY around and change it to a state where people are “moving in.” Elise Stefanik is a proven leader and is clearly the candidate who will fight for New York and make this happen!
