In a recent interview, former New York congressman and gubernatorial candidate Lee Zeldin discussed the importance of local involvement and the impact it can have on communities. Zeldin emphasized that while national politics is crucial, it is at the local level where one can truly witness the Petri dish of far-left ideologies taking shape.
Highlighting a specific example, Zeldin pointed out how policies implemented in New York City eventually make their way to the state level. He cited the recent ban on gas hookups in new construction as an illustration of this trend. What begins as a decision at the city council level can quickly spread and become statewide legislation.
