I’m Paula Collins. I'm a New York Cannabis Tax Attorney. I’m here to ask for support to become your Representative for the 21st Congressional District of the Great State of New York.
The map for District 21 was re-drawn in February, 2024. It now spans 18 counties, with around 770,000 registered voters. That’s a lot of land mass, and a lot of people. But here is something important that they have in common: they don’t want to be forgotten.
Our current Representative has lost her way. She has aligned herself with the former president in his defense of the January 6 protestors. But what about the people back at home in our district, hard at work in their day-to-day-lives?
The small business owners, and clerks, the teachers, the country lawyers, and, most especially, the farmers feel left out by the candidates on the far left. And increasingly, they feel left out by the candidates on the far right. They need their elected Congressmen and women in Washington to pass sensible immigration policies so that their communities are safe. They need their elected officials to assure them that their children are safe on the internet, and their daily life is safe from AI. They need to know that Congress is passing legislation to protect the environment, and the land, air, water, and animal rights in it. They need to get a sensible Farm Bill passed – and fast! They need to know that when they get sick, there are doctors and hospitals close, with affordable options in healthcare.
It's not that they don’t care about January 6 – it’s that they have so many other life issues to care about.
My opponent in this race was first elected in the year 2014. And what has she done to help the people of District 21?
It seems like lately all she has done is cozy up to the former President – you know – the one who is under multiple indictments in multiple states. Sure, she put on a fine performance when she questioned university presidents. But as someone who has aligned herself with the most hate-spewing president in history, who is she really to call out incendiary hate speech?
Elise Stefanik has had her chance in the job as your Congressional Representative, and all she did was move further to the MAGA right than any of us ever imagined.
In 2024, vote for the moderate center.
Vote for Paula Collins for Congress.
And I assure you – you will be seen, you will be heard, and most importantly, you will NOT be forgotten.
