Nassau County, NY

DEMAND THE DEMOCRAT LEGISLATORS PASS THE CAPITAL PLAN AND FUND PUBLIC SAFETY AND INFRASTRUCTURE

Recently, all members of the Nassau County Legislature’s Democratic Minority Caucus SHAMEFULLY blocked passage of County Executive Bruce Blakeman’s 2025 Capital Plan - a move that prevents the Blakeman Administration from making critical public safety investments while keeping taxes flat.
  1. Bullet Proof Vests for Police Officers
  2. New Ambulances
  3. Updated Police Vehicles
  4. Updated Police Firearms
  5. Enhancements to the Sheriff’s Department Vehicle Fleet
  6. New Fire Department Rescue Vehicles
  7. Enhancements to Fire Department Communications Systems
  8. Fire Department Training

It is clear why the Democratic Minority Caucus blocked this “common sense” public safety funding plan: DEMOCRATS ARE PLAYING PARTISAN POLITICS WITH TAXPAYER DOLLARS IN AN ELECTION YEAR. While the Democratic Minority Caucus denies funding to first responders, the Nassau County Legislature’s Republican Majority remains committed to supporting the pro-public safety priorities laid out in County Executive Bruce Blakeman’s 2025 Capital Plan – it is time for the Democrats to do the same. Please sign this petition and tell the Nassau County Legislature’s Democratic Minority Caucus to put partisan politics aside and vote in favor of County Executive Bruce Blakeman’s 2025 Capital Plan.
