Hello, Houston? We have a problem here. 27% of New Yorkers plan to leave the state in the next 5 years. Over 5 million people unhappy and ready to go because the state is unaffordable and dangerous. https://t.co/kA6kefstG4

Once again, New York leads the country in driving away its own residents. Why aren<U+2019>t Democrats doing anything about it? https://t.co/iFYZsO6yxz
NY Democrats blanket extension of the eviction moratorium signals to small landlords that their economic hardships are not important. Allowing tenants to simply ignore their obligations while holding property owners to a different set of standards is blatantly unfair. https://t.co/JpJ8qk9EJV
Small property owners across the state have reached the breaking point Both tenants & property owners have been hurt, but Democrats extending the eviction moratorium helps only one side of the equation. https://t.co/eKK0PUZodT
Joined @EdwardRa19, @Slater4NY, my Assembly Republican colleagues & elected leaders from localities across the state to stand up against Gov. Hochul<U+2019>s invasive & unnecessary plan to strip away local control of housing projects. <U+00A0> <U+201C>Local Control - Not Hochul Control.<U+201D> https://t.co/LcbtVbPsTO
From <U+2018>cancel rent<U+2019> to endless moratoriums, NY liberals have tried to push small landlords into financial disaster. We need to preserve the legal protections & timely process for property owners to receive what they<U+2019>re owed. https://t.co/pM3KhpxEXu
Earlier today, I joined my Assembly & Senate Minority colleagues to raise the question as to why NY Democrats are back in Albany to extend the eviction moratorium. The answer is simple: NY Democrats failed to distribute billions in federal assistance to tenants & landlords. https://t.co/m6hmiJop5o
The Legislature’s latest extension of the eviction moratorium has only added to the many difficult situations for landlords across the state, including further financial hardship and, in some cases, increasingly dangerous “tenants” https://t.co/34tibvDZkQ
Extending the eviction moratorium until January 2022 was a mistake and further added to the unfair financial burden already facing small landlords as taxes, mortgages and utility bills continue to mount without rent https://t.co/0ytnhW5Q7U
Members of the @NYS_AM & I have penned a letter calling for a special session to align NY’s eviction moratorium with federal guidance. In the early days of COVID-19, temporarily halting evictions made sense, but with the state of emergency lifted it is outdated and unnecessary. https://t.co/eRhmcLUaHc
