I just announced a couple days ago that as soon as I am sworn into office, I\u2019m going to be declaring a crime emergency here in the state of New York. I\u2019m going to suspend New York\u2019s cashless bail laws and some other pro-criminal laws that have been passed, force the legislature to come to the table to negotiate an improvement because we have to take back our streets. We need law abiding New Yorkers back in control of New York streets instead of criminals.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI\u2019ve previously announced that my first action, my first day that I\u2019m in office, is telling them the Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg that he\u2019s being removed for his refusal to enforce the law,\u201d he later added. \u201cBut it doesn\u2019t stop there. We need to support our men and women in law enforcement, we need to make sure whether it\u2019s cashless bail, less is more, raise the age, hall tax, some of these other names of laws that have passed, which don\u2019t get as much attention, are resulting in people getting hurt, law abiding New Yorkers getting hurt.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Virginia Governor Glenn Youngkin (R) will also campaign for Zeldin in New York in the coming days as he heads to Westchester County on Monday.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>America\u2019s top political fundraiser is heading to New York to help push Rep.
