ALBANY, NY (04/10/2008)(readMedia)-- It is with great pride that we welcome Senator McCain to New York, and in particular my hometown of Brooklyn, as he unveils his new economic initiatives.
For centuries, New York has been a beacon of hope for people looking for a better life, so it is the ideal location for Senator John McCain to expand on his vision of how to make the American Dream of homeownership, a good career and financial security a reality for more families.
Senator McCain’s detailed policy changes would make a concrete difference in helping Americans afford today’s spiraling cost of living, especially his proposals to control the cost of basic necessities like gasoline, energy costs and food.
He appropriately addresses the housing crisis in a fair and equitable manner that keeps homeownership within reach while respecting both well-meaning homeowners and taxpayers.
And, his training and support programs for people who are between jobs will ensure that hard working Americans have the resources they need to remain active and engaged in the economy.
During these uncertain financial times, it is comforting to know that a man with John McCain’s experience, vision and steady hand is here to lead us.
