Thread: Info needed on Jim Tedisco campaign

any immigration info on this campaign for US Senate?

W

I heard from a person that has worked with Jim Tedisco, that Jim is a stand up guy, he votes for the American people and opposes anything having to do with Amnesty. I also hard that the Democrats are putting in big bucks and have dirty plans in store, to keep him out of office because they want New York to remain a pro-illegals Democratic Santuary.

i read this too. i think it was a post on the site, actually

I couldn't find anything concerning his position on amnesty. After a quick search, this was all I was able to find:

Excerpt:

Jim Tedisco led the fight against disgraced former Gov. Eliot Spitzer's cynical plan to grant drivers licenses to illegal aliens. He represents the classic American values we all grew up believing were synonymous with our country.

We definitely need to know more about this guy.

Here's from a recent interview:
---

Q: Weren’t you afraid of standing up to former Governor Spitzer?

A: I’m not afraid to stand up to bullies and that’s exactly what I did when “Illegal Eliotâ€

Note the Chamber of Commerce has endorsed Tedisco so we'll have to see what his positions are.

Jim Tedico is totally 100% against illegal immigration and is a supporter of our soldiers. I raised a fairly large donation for the Patriot Guard Riders Help On The Homefront Program and Jim was out of town but sent his Chief Of Staff retired Marine Mike Miller to the check presentation. Mike and I spoke extensively and believe me Jim Tedisco is on our side and we need him in Congress.

Is his position on illegal immigration documented anywhere? If not, why? If so, could you please provide a link. Thanks.

But not all have. Instead, some elected officials like James N. Tedisco, the minority leader of the New York State Assembly, are making provocative pronouncements like this one: “Osama bin Laden is somewhere in a cave with his den of thieves and terrorists, and he’s probably sabering the cork on some Champagne right now, saying ‘Hey, that governor’s really assisting us.’â€
