The 2026 Legislative Session has come to a close, but the work of fighting for Long Island families is far from over. As a member of the Republican Conference, I spent this session pushing back against the same failed policies that have made New York less affordable, less safe, and more difficult for working families and small businesses.
And now, our attention turns towards the 2026 elections, when voters will have the opportunity to send strong message to those in control in Albany: after years and years of being ignored by the Democrats, it is time to solve the long-standing problems of the state.
Affordability remains one of the defining issues facing New Yorkers. Our state is one of the most expensive places to live in the nation, and city-centric policies continue to punish the suburbs and the working class.

Dedicated to making his community a safer, more affordable place to live, Assemblyman Joe DeStefano has devoted his life to serving his neighbors. He is a forceful and unwavering voice in Albany fighting for the needs of the suburbs and the people who make our communities work.
Joe stands against the politicians who brought us high taxes, inflation, and the policies that put the special interests first and the people last. He makes sure Long Island gets its fair share of state education funding and is a leader in calling for the repeal of cashless bail and an end to the anti-law enforcement policies that have pervaded our government.
He supports law enforcement and district attorneys in shutting down the flow of fentanyl and other lethal drugs into our communities. He wants emergency responders to be protected from hate crimes as they put their lives on the line to serve us.
