--George collects very large
contributions from public employee and trade unions. If he acts like
a democrat and quacks like a democrat, he’s not a republican.
Isn’t it a conflict for a State Legislator to take money from the
public employee unions when his job is to protect taxpayer interests
and only approve union contracts fair to the taxpayers in wages,
benefits, work rules, etc. Over the past 20 years on George’s
watch, the legislature his approved
public employee contracts with terms that have continued to break the
backs of the taxpayers.
--There are many additional donations
up to $2,000 for 2012 not shown here.
--George Maziarz must return
contributions from public employee unions, energy companies and other
firms and people with whom he is conflicted.
--Notice many contributors are not from
Western New York or George’s district. What favors do they seek
that run against the best interests of George’s constituency?
--Credit for donation statistics from
1999-2012 in this report is given to James Heaney.
Footnotes:
1. Public employee unions –Donations
of over $35,000 in 2012 alone noted herein. They seek to protect
government employee union contracts, jobs, rights, benefits and
rules. They buy protection from legislative efforts to protect the
taxpayer by changing the Taylor Law and rescinding the Triborough
Amendment.
2. Energy- Donations of over $1,000 in
2012 noted herein. Why isn’t it a crime to take political donations
from energy companies including telecom, when you are the chairman of
the NY State Senate Energy Committee dealing with energy rates,
regulations, jobs, complaints and oversight. The conflict is obvious
and abhorrent. George is expected to protect the taxpayers from
greedy utilities that he takes money from. Hello!!!! George Maziarz
should return all energy related contributions.
3. Trade unions – who donated over
$20,000 in 2012 alone as noted herein, buy protection from
Legislative efforts to change the Wick’s Law which deals with
prevailing wages and bidding requirements that add enormous cost of
government projects to the taxpayers.
4. NFR-(Niagara Falls Redevelopment)
Donations of over $32,000 in 2012 alone as noted herein. NFR is owned
by parasitic, wheeler dealer Howard Milstein who just happens to be
the Chairman of New York State Empire Development and big time
fundraiser for Andrew Cuomo. NFR owns the rights to 175 parcels,
including significant structures in the core of the City of Niagara
Falls. They obviously own George.
