Letter To The Editor: Kenner Urges Republicans To Vote For Carvin

Port Chester village trustee, GOP chairman, backs Rye town supervisor in bid for congressional seat.

Letter to the Editor:

I am writing to urge all of my fellow Republicans in the 17th Congressional district to vote for my friend in the upcoming Tuesday .  We have a remarkable chance for capturing this seat with a solid tax cutting, pro-growth, job creating leader, like Rye Town Supervisor Joe Carvin. 

Not only is Carvin a common sense business leader, but he has a stellar record in Rye Town of reducing taxes every year he has been in office and has cut expenditures by 25%.  Carvin’s zest for eliminating bureaucracy and further reducing the tax burden, is evident in his push to eliminate his own level of government.  Not many politicians will lead the fight to get rid of their jobs, but Joe Carvin has been quite a vocal advocate for reducing the incredibly large number of taxing jurisdictions in New York State.    It is time we have a voice in Congress that wants to fundamentally change the taxing dynamic in our state.   

With three decades of business and professional experience, fluency in five languages and graduate degrees from Harvard and NYU, it is resoundingly clear that Joe has the right credentials for Congress. He has been a solid leader who has reached out to all segments of Rye Town in an effort to make us a model American community and increase voter participation in the political process. 

Tuesday June 26th is our opportunity as Republicans to elect a pro-growth, tax cutting candidate to Congress.   I ask all Republicans to vote for Joe Carvin to be our Republican candidate for Congress.

Linda T., I would guess Mrs. Brakewood lives in Port Chester if she is running for the Port ChesterRead More Board of Ed. Even if the schools had to impose an austerity budget, your taxes would still go up. The state has more control in these matters than you think.

Linda, the per pupil expenditure in PC schools is the lowest in Westchester and Rockland countiesRead More ... by about $2,000 per student. The issue is two fold. First, our property values are not as strong as our neighbors, so our homes have a higher levy in order to fund the schools. Second, and more important, is that the reliance on property taxes slams moderate income communities like PC. We need for the state to move to an income tax to fund schools. Scream at your legislators ... not the BoE.

I am concerned there is not enough attention to detail in the BOE budget overall and Mrs. BrakewoodRead More comment about keeping taxes affordable ... where does she live ? they are out of control and in my opinion the money we pay for taxes we should have the best looking schools anywhere ... just my opinion
