Nassau County Executive Ed Mangano (R) endorsed nationally recognized restructuring expert and candidate for state comptroller Harry J. Wilson.
"New York needs a fiscal expert in the Office of the State Comptroller," said County Executive Ed Mangano. "Harry Wilson has a plan to stop the pension-related property tax time bomb that threatens taxpayers in counties all over the state. We need Harry's business expertise and independence in Albany, and I strongly urge Nassau County voters to support him for the good of this state."
Mangano, a former small business owner was elected on a reform message to cut taxes and reduce spending in Nassau County. Immediately, Mangano began to change how the county did business. He cut the home energy tax, reformed property assessments and worked to keep and attract businesses, including next generation green jobs in Nassau.
Harry Wilson, in accepting the endorsement stated, "Ed Mangano started a quiet revolution last year when he was elected on a platform to cut taxes and fundamentally change Nassau County government's 'tax and spend' culture. Like me, he comes from the business world and knows how to apply real world solutions to very real problems. I'm honored by his endorsement and I look forward to partnering with the county executive and other local leaders across New York to get the state back on track."
