Dear NY Residents, Frederick Douglass Foundation Members, Volunteers, Subcribers and Readers

Next Thursday, September 13 there is a Republican Primary for New York State 133rd Assembly District. This District consist of Monroe  County – the towns of Pittsford, Mendon, Honeoye Falls, Rush and Wheatland; all of Livingston County, and portions of Northwestern Steuben County.

Bill Nojay of Pittsford is being challenged by Republican Richard Burke of Avon. Bill encouraged me several years ago to join the Town of Pittsford Republican Committee and to become more involved in the political process. Last year I worked on Bill Taylor’s campaign for Monroe County District Attorney. This year I was asked to join Bill Nojay’s campaign for NYS Assembly. I believe that Bill is the ONLY candidate in this Republican Primary that will take a strong stand against the down state politicians who rarely venture north of New York City.

Bill has never run for a political office and considers himself an Albany outsider. He is a small business owner, attorney, and a longtime civic volunteer who is no stranger to public service. Having served as Commissioner of the Rochester Genesee Regional Transportation Authority for 8 years, he was the only public official to oppose the use of taxpayer dollars for the Fast Ferry to Toronto. Bill has served on the boards of numerous civic and business organizations including the Vietnam Veterans Memorial of Monroe County, Inc. Board of Directors, Al Sigal Center, and he currently serves as Chairman of U.S. Army’s Community Advisory Board in Upstate NY. Additionally, he can be heard on his daily Bill Nojay radio show, which airs every afternoon on WSYL 1040 AM and 94.1 FM from 2pm to 3pm. He is also a former EMT and volunteer ambulance driver in the Town of Pittsford, and girls’ soccer coach.

Bill Nojay is running for New York State Assembly because he is fed up with the lack of leadership in Albany. He wants to cut all unnecessary Medicaid spending, put an end to New York’s “cap and tax” regulations that are strangling our farmers and small businesses, and reduce taxes so that we can rebuild our economy and create jobs in New York State. Bill is a Conservative who wants to protect and defend the U.S. Constitution, especially the First and Second Amendment.

For additional information on Bill and where he stands on issues that matter most to New Yorkers please go to www.billnojay.com

   If you live in one of the towns that Bill will be representing, please get out and vote for him on Thursday, September 13th.  Polls are open from noon until 9 PM.  If you do not live in the 133^rd Assembly District (see map link http://www.latfor.state.ny.us/maps/?sec=prop2012a) please forward to family and friends who do.

    Thank you for any help that you can give me with spreading the word about the Republican Primary on Thursday September 13 and Candidate Bill Nojay.
