Recently, <\/p>\n
Assemblyman <\/p>\n
Joseph <\/p>\n
Angelino <\/p>\n
received <\/p>\n

bid <\/p>\n
for <\/p>\n
re-election <\/p>\n
to <\/p>\n
the <\/p>\n
121st <\/p>\n
Assembly <\/p>\n
District. <\/p>\n
\n
The <\/p>\n

more <\/p>\n

from <\/p>\n
the <\/p>\n
rank <\/p>\n
of <\/p>\n
trooper <\/p>\n
through <\/p>\n
major. <\/p>\n
\n
\u201cIt <\/p>\n
is <\/p>\n
with <\/p>\n
careful <\/p>\n
consideration <\/p>\n
that <\/p>\n
the <\/p>\n
NYSTPBA <\/p>\n
is <\/p>\n
endorsing <\/p>\n
Joe <\/p>\n

\u201cThe <\/p>\n
NYSTPBA <\/p>\n
is <\/p>\n
confident <\/p>\n
that <\/p>\n
Joe <\/p>\n
Angelino <\/p>\n
remains <\/p>\n
the <\/p>\n

candidate <\/p>\n
for <\/p>\n
this <\/p>\n
position.\u201d <\/p>\n
\n
Angelino <\/p>\n
has <\/p>\n
also <\/p>\n

announced <\/p>\n
this <\/p>\n

<\/p>\n
\n
Angelino <\/p>\n
attributed <\/p>\n
the <\/p>\n

in <\/p>\n
part <\/p>\n
to <\/p>\n
his <\/p>\n

\n
Angelino <\/p>\n
said <\/p>\n
officers <\/p>\n
deserve <\/p>\n
more <\/p>\n
appreciation, <\/p>\n
\u201cParticularly <\/p>\n
the <\/p>\n
corrections <\/p>\n
officers <\/p>\n
who <\/p>\n
feel <\/p>\n
they’ve <\/p>\n
been <\/p>\n
forgotten <\/p>\n
or <\/p>\n
even <\/p>\n
worse, <\/p>\n
forsaken <\/p>\n
because <\/p>\n
of <\/p>\n
the <\/p>\n
NY\u2019s <\/p>\n
coddling <\/p>\n
of <\/p>\n
criminals.\u201d <\/p>\n
\n
\u201cI <\/p>\n
think <\/p>\n
a <\/p>\n
lot <\/p>\n
of <\/p>\n
people <\/p>\n
remember <\/p>\n
me <\/p>\n
as <\/p>\n
the <\/p>\n
police <\/p>\n
chief <\/p>\n
of <\/p>\n
being <\/p>\n
firm <\/p>\n
and <\/p>\n
fair <\/p>\n
and <\/p>\n
compassionate,\u201d <\/p>\n
Angelino <\/p>\n
said. <\/p>\n
\u201cNot <\/p>\n
everybody <\/p>\n
is <\/p>\n
perfect <\/p>\n
and <\/p>\n
people <\/p>\n
can <\/p>\n
make <\/p>\n
mistakes.\u201d <\/p>\n
\n
He <\/p>\n
said <\/p>\n
treating <\/p>\n
people <\/p>\n
with <\/p>\n
respect <\/p>\n
after <\/p>\n
they <\/p>\n
make <\/p>\n
mistakes <\/p>\n
can <\/p>\n
go <\/p>\n
a <\/p>\n
long <\/p>\n
way <\/p>\n
toward <\/p>\n
rehabilitation. <\/p>\n
\n
\u201cI’m <\/p>\n
very <\/p>\n
grateful <\/p>\n
that <\/p>\n
the <\/p>\n
troopers <\/p>\n
and <\/p>\n
all <\/p>\n
of <\/p>\n
these <\/p>\n
law <\/p>\n
enforcement <\/p>\n
agencies <\/p>\n
have <\/p>\n
endorsed <\/p>\n
me,\u201d <\/p>\n
Angelino <\/p>\n
said. <\/p>\n
\n
Angelino, <\/p>\n
a <\/p>\n
Republican <\/p>\n
and <\/p>\n
Conservative <\/p>\n
from <\/p>\n
Norwich, <\/p>\n
is <\/p>\n
seeking <\/p>\n
another <\/p>\n
term <\/p>\n
representing <\/p>\n
the <\/p>\n
121st <\/p>\n
Assembly <\/p>\n
District. <\/p>\n
Democrat <\/p>\n
Vicki <\/p>\n
Davis <\/p>\n
is <\/p>\n
also <\/p>\n
running <\/p>\n
for <\/p>\n
the <\/p>\n
seat. <\/p>\n
The <\/p>\n
district <\/p>\n
includes <\/p>\n
portions <\/p>\n
of <\/p>\n
Chenango, <\/p>\n
Broome, <\/p>\n
Delaware, <\/p>\n
Madison <\/p>\n
and <\/p>\n
Otsego <\/p>\n
counties. <\/p>\n
\n
Before <\/p>\n
entering <\/p>\n
the <\/p>\n
Assembly, <\/p>\n
Angelino <\/p>\n
spent <\/p>\n
decades <\/p>\n
in <\/p>\n
law <\/p>\n
enforcement <\/p>\n
and <\/p>\n
served <\/p>\n
as <\/p>\n
chief <\/p>\n
of <\/p>\n
the <\/p>\n
Norwich <\/p>\n
Police <\/p>\n
Department <\/p>\n
for <\/p>\n
nearly <\/p>\n
20 <\/p>\n
years. <\/p>\n
He <\/p>\n
was <\/p>\n
elected <\/p>\n
to <\/p>\n
the <\/p>\n
Assembly <\/p>\n
in <\/p>\n
2020. <\/p>\n
\n
Angelino <\/p>\n
is <\/p>\n
also <\/p>\n
a <\/p>\n
retired <\/p>\n
U.S. <\/p>\n
Marine <\/p>\n
Corps <\/p>\n
Reserve <\/p>\n
sergeant <\/p>\n
major <\/p>\n
and <\/p>\n
a <\/p>\n
three-time <\/p>\n
combat <\/p>\n
veteran <\/p>\n
of <\/p>\n
two <\/p>\n
wars. <\/p>\n
\n
He <\/p>\n
served <\/p>\n
as <\/p>\n
a <\/p>\n
tank <\/p>\n
commander <\/p>\n
during <\/p>\n
Desert <\/p>\n
Storm <\/p>\n
and <\/p>\n
later <\/p>\n
served <\/p>\n
in <\/p>\n
Iraq <\/p>\n
in <\/p>\n
2003 <\/p>\n
and <\/p>\n
2005. <\/p>\n
He <\/p>\n
received <\/p>\n
two <\/p>\n
Purple <\/p>\n
Hearts <\/p>\n
after <\/p>\n
being <\/p>\n
wounded <\/p>\n
during <\/p>\n
his <\/p>\n
2005 <\/p>\n
deployment <\/p>\n
and <\/p>\n
retired <\/p>\n
from <\/p>\n
the <\/p>\n
Marine <\/p>\n
Reserve <\/p>\n
in <\/p>\n
2008. <\/p>\n
\n
Public <\/p>\n
safety <\/p>\n
has <\/p>\n
remained <\/p>\n
one <\/p>\n
of <\/p>\n
Angelino\u2019s <\/p>\n
central <\/p>\n
issues <\/p>\n
in <\/p>\n
Albany. <\/p>\n
In <\/p>\n
January, <\/p>\n
he <\/p>\n
outlined <\/p>\n
his <\/p>\n
2026 <\/p>\n
legislative <\/p>\n
priorities <\/p>\n
and <\/p>\n
criticized <\/p>\n
New <\/p>\n
York\u2019s <\/p>\n
bail <\/p>\n
reform <\/p>\n
efforts <\/p>\n
as <\/p>\n
protecting <\/p>\n
criminals <\/p>\n
over <\/p>\n
victims. <\/p>\n
He <\/p>\n
has <\/p>\n
questioned <\/p>\n
other <\/p>\n
policies <\/p>\n
he <\/p>\n
says <\/p>\n
reduce <\/p>\n
criminal <\/p>\n
accountability, <\/p>\n
such <\/p>\n
as <\/p>\n
Raise <\/p>\n
the <\/p>\n
Age <\/p>\n
and <\/p>\n
Clean <\/p>\n
Slate <\/p>\n
initiatives. <\/p>\n
\n
\u201cI <\/p>\n
want <\/p>\n
to <\/p>\n
remind <\/p>\n
people <\/p>\n
that <\/p>\n
everybody <\/p>\n
in <\/p>\n
prison <\/p>\n
was <\/p>\n
convicted <\/p>\n
and <\/p>\n
sent <\/p>\n
there <\/p>\n
by <\/p>\n
a <\/p>\n
judge <\/p>\n
or <\/p>\n
jury,\u201d <\/p>\n
he <\/p>\n
said. <\/p>\n
\n
He <\/p>\n
said <\/p>\n
he <\/p>\n
would <\/p>\n
continue <\/p>\n
opposing <\/p>\n
legislation <\/p>\n
he <\/p>\n
believes <\/p>\n
makes <\/p>\n
the <\/p>\n
community <\/p>\n
less <\/p>\n
safe <\/p>\n
and <\/p>\n
the <\/p>\n
work <\/p>\n
of <\/p>\n
police <\/p>\n
and <\/p>\n
correction <\/p>\n
officers <\/p>\n
more <\/p>\n
difficult. <\/p>\n
\n
Angelino <\/p>\n
has <\/p>\n
repeatedly <\/p>\n
called <\/p>\n
for <\/p>\n
changes <\/p>\n
to <\/p>\n
the <\/p>\n
state\u2019s <\/p>\n
bail <\/p>\n
laws. <\/p>\n
Last <\/p>\n
year, <\/p>\n
he <\/p>\n
argued <\/p>\n
that <\/p>\n
cashless <\/p>\n
bail <\/p>\n
had <\/p>\n
harmed <\/p>\n
public <\/p>\n
safety <\/p>\n
and <\/p>\n
said <\/p>\n
Republicans <\/p>\n
would <\/p>\n
continue <\/p>\n
efforts <\/p>\n
to <\/p>\n
repeal <\/p>\n
portions <\/p>\n
of <\/p>\n
the <\/p>\n
law. <\/p>\n
\n
His <\/p>\n
recent <\/p>\n
agenda <\/p>\n
has <\/p>\n
also <\/p>\n
focused <\/p>\n
heavily <\/p>\n
on <\/p>\n
affordability <\/p>\n
and <\/p>\n
energy <\/p>\n
costs. <\/p>\n
Angelino <\/p>\n
joined <\/p>\n
Republican <\/p>\n
gubernatorial <\/p>\n
candidate <\/p>\n
Bruce <\/p>\n
Blakeman <\/p>\n
at <\/p>\n
an <\/p>\n
August <\/p>\n
press <\/p>\n
conference <\/p>\n
calling <\/p>\n
for <\/p>\n
an <\/p>\n
\u201call-of-the-above\u201d <\/p>\n
energy <\/p>\n
policy <\/p>\n
that <\/p>\n
includes <\/p>\n
natural <\/p>\n
gas <\/p>\n
and <\/p>\n
nuclear <\/p>\n
power <\/p>\n
alongside <\/p>\n
renewable <\/p>\n
sources. <\/p>\n
Angelino <\/p>\n
argued <\/p>\n
that <\/p>\n
state <\/p>\n
mandates <\/p>\n
and <\/p>\n
energy <\/p>\n
policies <\/p>\n
have <\/p>\n
contributed <\/p>\n
to <\/p>\n
higher <\/p>\n
utility <\/p>\n
costs. <\/p>\n

\n
Earlier <\/p>\n
this <\/p>\n
year, <\/p>\n
Angelino <\/p>\n
said <\/p>\n
his <\/p>\n
legislative <\/p>\n
priorities <\/p>\n
included <\/p>\n
reducing <\/p>\n
taxes <\/p>\n
and <\/p>\n
state <\/p>\n
spending, <\/p>\n
cutting <\/p>\n
regulations <\/p>\n
affecting <\/p>\n
small <\/p>\n
businesses <\/p>\n
and <\/p>\n
addressing <\/p>\n
the <\/p>\n
cost <\/p>\n
of <\/p>\n
living. <\/p>\n
\n
More <\/p>\n
recently, <\/p>\n
Angelino <\/p>\n
called <\/p>\n
on <\/p>\n
the <\/p>\n
Federal <\/p>\n
Communications <\/p>\n
Commission <\/p>\n
and <\/p>\n
New <\/p>\n
York <\/p>\n
Public <\/p>\n
Service <\/p>\n
Commission <\/p>\n
to <\/p>\n
hold <\/p>\n
public <\/p>\n
hearings <\/p>\n
over <\/p>\n
Verizon\u2019s <\/p>\n
plans <\/p>\n
to <\/p>\n
discontinue <\/p>\n
traditional <\/p>\n
copper-based <\/p>\n
landline <\/p>\n
service <\/p>\n
in <\/p>\n
some <\/p>\n
areas. <\/p>\n
He <\/p>\n
said <\/p>\n
rural <\/p>\n
residents <\/p>\n
can <\/p>\n
depend <\/p>\n
on <\/p>\n
landlines <\/p>\n
where <\/p>\n
cellular <\/p>\n
service <\/p>\n
remains <\/p>\n
unreliable. <\/p>\n
\n
Angelino <\/p>\n
has <\/p>\n
also <\/p>\n
advocated <\/p>\n
for <\/p>\n
additional <\/p>\n
support <\/p>\n
for <\/p>\n
rural <\/p>\n
emergency <\/p>\n
medical <\/p>\n
services. <\/p>\n
In <\/p>\n
March, <\/p>\n
he <\/p>\n
described <\/p>\n
rural <\/p>\n
EMS <\/p>\n
as <\/p>\n
being <\/p>\n
in <\/p>\n
crisis <\/p>\n
and <\/p>\n
pointed <\/p>\n
to <\/p>\n
low <\/p>\n
Medicaid <\/p>\n
reimbursement <\/p>\n
rates <\/p>\n
and <\/p>\n
shortages <\/p>\n
facing <\/p>\n
volunteer <\/p>\n
ambulance <\/p>\n
services. <\/p>\n
