DiPietro Signs on to Paladino Proposal on Constitution

DIPIETRO FOR SENATE
“A Fresh Start for a Brighter Future”

East Aurora, New York, September 2, 2008. Civic leader Carl Paladino and State Senate candidate David DiPietro (Rep. 59th) will hold a press conference tomorrow (Thursday) at 1:00 p.m. in the lobby of the Ellicott Square in downtown Buffalo to announce DiPietro’s support for Paladino’s proposal for a new state constitutional convention.

In a letter to Paladino, DiPietro wrote:

“When a state’s economy declines for fifty straight years, and when one region, Upstate, consistently lags behind Downstate in economic progress and is losing its young people to other states, there must be something wrong with its fundamental law, the Constitution.

“I will also propose bold new reform measures such as:

1. abolishing public authorities and their ability to secretly add to state debt;
2. equalizing private and public sector wages and benefits;
3. abolishing gerrymandering of legislative districts by allowing citizens to sue wherever districts are not geometrically compact;
4. allowing petition and referenda;
5. abolishing special districts and consolidating such districts into existing local or county governments.”
