Senate Flip a New Day for Albany
ALBANY— Today, The Capital District Young Republican Club congratulated Dean G. Skelos in his election as New York State Senate Majority Leader.
“We are glad to see ‘One Party Rule’ end in New York State and new leadership in the Senate. This is a new, great day for New Yorkers as the hard working young professionals will have someone standing up for fiscal accountability and Government Reform in Albany,” said Bryon C. McKim, Communications Chairman of the Capital District Young Republican Club.
“Just months ago, Malcolm Smith was calling for democracy in New York’s Upper House. His actions by turning the cameras and the lights off in the chamber shows that all he cares about his own power. The Senate has spoken, and they have chosen for new leadership in the Senate,” concluded McKim.
The Capital District Young Republican Club provides young professionals with opportunities to network with like-minded people, to keep abreast of current events and public policy, and get involved in the political process through campaigns and elections. Club membership is open to people ages 18 through 40, inclusive — who live or work in the area and express a preference for the principles of the GOP. Capital YR aspires “To improve our communities and ourselves.”
