Tuesday
marked Election Day across the nation, and New Yorker voters turned out
to reject conservative leanings and platforms on the
ballot. Governor Hochul was elected for her first full term and NY Dems
won a wide majority in both chambers (with a full supermajority still unclear), setting up new fights for care and compassion this legislative session. While
some may claim that ‘leftist messaging harmed Democrats,’ on the
contrary, it was our bold actions that saved them. VOCAL-NY leaders and
members across New York State helped to deliver Democratic victories for
candidates because voters rejected values that would undo decades of
progress. We pray that these newly-elected
candidates realize what is at stake for our leaders, members, and all
New Yorkers. We urge them to be the beacon of hope and progress that New
Yorkers need to enhance quality of life. And if all else fails, we will
hold them accountable to passing bold life saving legislation and
remind them who got them into office in the first place. |
