An interview with Joe
Saladino, Republican Assembly candidate, 12th District.
BACKGROUND
Age 42 and a lifelong
resident of Massapequa. My family has resided here for four generations.
Currently Director of Operations, Town of Oyster Bay, and a former
Executive Assistant to the Presiding Supervisor, Town of Hempstead.
Masters Degree in
broadcast Journalism from New York Institute of Technology, attended
Tulane University and received a Bachelors Degree from New York
Institute of Technology in Speech and Communications.
SUOZZI ADMINISTRATION
The Administration has
raised taxes 57% in three years and has raised spending over $300
million. These increases and increases in assessment may force our
seniors off Long Island and now allow our children and grandchildren to
live here. Taxes need to be kept low.
DEATH PENALTY
We need to make every
effort to protect our citizens from serial killers, pedophiles and cop
killers.
TOP ISSUES FOR MASSAEPQUA &
FARMINGDALE
It’s very simple. (1)
Keeping taxes down. (2) Protecting our children’s right to a proper
education and (3) Keeping taxes down (4) I will fight tirelessly for a
law to keep dangerous pedophiles off our streets for life.
GOVERNOR PATAKI
He has done a good job
and has done it during a critical time. He was our Governor when our
City and nation was attacked. He has brought about tax relief and has
shown amazing courage. I am looking forward to working with him
closely.
FAVORITE SPORTS ATHLETE, TV SHOW, BOOK
& ACTRESS

programs, The Old Man and the Sea and Ingrid Bergman
CANDIDATE BILL FUNK
If the voters choose
the Republican-Conservative candidate, they will be voting for
experience and the candidate

DIFFERENCES BETWEEN R’s and D’s in
ALBANY
The Republicans in
Albany put their focus on keeping taxes in check and concentrate on the
needs of our suburbs, schools and families.
ENVIRONMENTAL ISSUES
(12th ASEMBLY DISTRICT)
I’ve had a lifelong
interest in environmental conservation and protection. We can do a lot
right now to protect
our aquifer system so
that we have clean potable drinking water for generations. I will
continue to keep our bays, estuaries, wetlands and marine environment
growing and healthy.
