Collapse all
|Paul Rodriguez (Republican, Conservative)
Exposing Major Corruption & Waste - I will implement a bold approach to investigating fraud, waste, and abuse. To save New York from fiscal ruin, I will use the auditing power of the state comptroller's office to root out incompetence and corruption, regardless of the political party, and I will work diligently to ensure New York residents are not overtaxed.
Professionalizing Pension Management - The comptroller has a fiduciary duty to allocate state pension assets ethically and prudently to maximize investment returns for pension holders. I believe that political ideology should not influence pension plan management. It is irresponsible to use pension assets as a political tool to fund pet projects or promote social agendas.
Paul Rodriguez (Republican, Conservative)
New York State is potentially on the hook for more than $200 billion in unfunded pension and other retiree benefits. The state government has largely overlooked this risk and seems inclined to defer the problem indefinitely. As State Comptroller, I will provide greater transparency about our state's financial obligations and work diligently to address any expected shortfall.
Increased Budgetary Oversight I believe that the Comptroller should take a proactive role in the state budget process to ensure good stewardship of the taxpayers' hard-earned money. As State Comptroller, I will provide increased oversight at every stage of the process. I will also seek to expose harmful policies and wasteful spending before any budget is passed. The Comptroller must be proactive in overseeing the annual budgetary process that is often delayed and increasingly leads to out-of-control spending.
Investing in New York
The State Comptroller should use the Office's contracting and investment authority to support and expand the state's economic base. The Comptroller should not erode the growth of well-paying jobs and destroy local industries to serve a political agenda. I will reverse New York's economic decline by tackling the bread-and-butter issues that impact working-class residents, attracting large corporations to create jobs, and empowering small businesses to thrive. I believe in making life more prosperous for all New Yorkers.
