As gas prices rise, I<U+2019>m calling for a suspension of the state<U+2019>s gas tax. People across NYS are dealing w/ higher costs<U+2014>whether it<U+2019>s at the pump, buying food, or heating their homes. This would help provide residents & businesses w/ the relief they need. https://t.co/Dk88nIjHCc

Just when you thought living in NY couldn’t get more unaffordable, lawmakers are proposing a bill that'd hike gas prices by 55 cents per gallon & cause home heating costs to skyrocket. Tell Albany to pump the brakes on the "gas tax" by signing my petition: https://t.co/MHKbtE3C48
A friend shared this pic of gas prices in Maryland w/ me<U+2014>a little bit better than here in NY. That<U+2019>s because MD acted to suspend its gas tax. My colleagues & I have been continuing to call for NY to do the same. Do you agree that NY should suspend its gas tax? https://t.co/nljnaCyivl

It's weekends like this remind us just how extremely COLD it can get in Upstate NY. If you heat your home w/ a wood-burning stove, I encourge you to sign my petition against a wood burning ban in NYS, here: https://t.co/HRN9Eo5T6P https://t.co/Q3mTTBqb0C
ICYMI, yesterday I joined the call to stop the "gas tax"--a proposal that could raise prices at the pump by 55 cents and hike home heating costs by a whopping 26 percent. More here from @wdtnews: https://t.co/slMjQq9tR4
