“Mark Poloncarz can talk about affordability all he wants, but his record tells a different story. Over 15 years, he has grown government, driven up spending, and taken millions more from Erie County taxpayers. He’s blocked commonsense relief like suspending the gas tax and continues to impose one of the highest utility taxes in New York.
.
At the same time, Erie County is losing population, employers, and opportunity on his watch.
.
Erie County Republicans are focused on a different path of lower taxes, responsible spending, smart investment in infrastructure and economic development, and real relief for working families and small businesses. That’s what Erie County needs, and that’s what the Republican Party will continue to fight for.”
