I love NYC too much to join those who have given up on it
I believe that New York City is America’s city. From Seattle to Sarasota, I believe that America has a strategic interest in maintaining the vibrancy of New York City and preserving the Big Apple as the center of global enterprise. None of us can afford to write off New York City, and as New Yorkers, we have a duty to preserve New York City as the center of Western civilization.
I have traveled to all 50 states of our beautiful country and have found that there is much more that unites us than divides us. I believe that the vast majority of Americans are focused on providing for their family. They’re focused on protecting their children and ensuring that their children have the opportunity to pursue their version of the American Dream. And whether they live in New Mexico or New York makes no difference.
I believe that the aim of government should be to make these goals and the American Dream easier for people to achieve. How?
By empowering people
By creating the conditions for people to build wealth and prosperity—essential to enabling freedom and independence
By protecting Americans and their livelihoods
By not seizing and redistributing opportunity
By generating an overabundance of opportunity for all
