Tuesday, Congressman Peter King announced his endorsement of my bid for U.S. Congress.
Rep. Peter King, the ten term Congressman from Long Island, has been a supporter of me since the launching of my campaign.
“We need people in Congress like Stephen Labate who understand what this battle is all about and who will fight against big government spending and tax increases, while upholding the traditional American values and principles which have made our nation great. Stephen has dedicated his life to serving our country and his sterling record of putting our country first is a quality sorely needed in Washington,” said King.
“I am confident that Stephen Labate will be a warrior for the people of the 3rd Congressional District, and I am proud to endorse him for the United States House of Representatives in New York’s 3rd Congressional District."
I am so pleased to have the support of Congressman King. He is the model of what good leadership looks like on Long Island, and I am privileged to have his endorsement. I hope that soon we’ll be working together in the halls of Congress to bring real solutions to the people of our districts on Long Island, and across the country.
You are sooo wrong. Yes the infrastructure bill would of created hundreds of thousands of jobs. There is nothing wrong with jobs being dominated by union contractors. Do you have a problem with a working man getting a FAIR DAYS PAY for a FAIR DAYS WORK ?? You may be unaware of this but the more you pay workers the more that they are likely to put back more into the economy by way of spending. This helps grow the economy. If you use scab contractors who pay their workers half of what they deserve, who wins? the only person is the contractor who keeps the profits in his pocket and does not spend it. Is that the way to grow the economy? no If the republicans are not obstructionists then why did they block most if not all the bills to help workers ?
You seem very angry, don't let the facts upset you so. Since you like to make assumptions I will give you some more facts. Your response was not on point, my comments were on the type of jobs that those projects would produce. But in typical liberal fashion you make the issue about the workers who are or are not getting a fair wage, and that I have a problem with that. And again I point out that you don't know what you are talking about. I have been in trades for over 30 years and have employed hundreds of union workers from several different unions. And why do you call non union workers scabs? Because they won't join a union.Don't they have a right to work under your constitution and don't you realize that unions only make up 25% of our total workforce in this country. So in your mind the other 75% of workers in this country are "scabs" and don't deserve to work in your Liberal Democratic country. This is exactly why this President needs to be fired. Everyone in this country has the right to work where they want. So let's recap you are angry,you can't stay on point, you figures are wrong and your belief that this President is doing a good job and any worker or employer that you don't approve of is a bad person. Is that about right, I feel sorry for you
I am not sure which debate you were watching, but all I saw was a crazy old man who acted like he was mentaly ill making faces one minuet,laughing the next and angry the next. That was as unprofessional a preformance as I have ever see. Ryan was clearly in charge of his facts and acted Presidental where Biden acted like he was on mushrooms. For the record the last 30 years the Unions caused the the factories to close and move their businesses out of the country. Because their rules,wages and benefits out paced their ability to be competitive. Take some responsibility and stop blaming everyone else, starting with your President.
THE GOP HAS NO PLAN -- other than LIE, LIE, LIE.
You are right, they are very nervous and they should be. And you can see by the level of intelligence of their supporters like Nassau Taxpayer.That their base is full of cry babies whose troubles are everyones fault but their own. He is one of those loud mouths that managed to grow up without getting put in his place. Keep the faith in 21 days Romney will win and then the grown ups can take over and fix all the crap the President broke.
See? We really do care for the 100%
Of course none of that happened Perhaps a more fitting name for him would be King Canute
