Catskill, NY
"After an incredible, record-breaking year in the Trump Administration, I'm coming home. Today, I'm announcing my campaign for the New York State Assembly to represent the 102nd District and fill the seat being vacated by the great Chris Tague.
"Serving in the Trump Administration was a distinct honor and a privilege. I helped the President and Secretary Duffy make our transportation systems safer, more resilient, and prepared to meet the challenges of the future.
"While I was working to move America forward, I was watching what was happening in New York. Progressive special interests and incompetent far-left politicians like Kathy Hochul and Zohran Mamdani now have a stranglehold on our state – making it more expensive and less safe.
"That's why I'm getting back in the fight — to fill the void of sensible leadership, help like-minded Republicans win, and give ordinary New Yorkers a voice in Albany on day one. I know how state government works. I know how to build coalitions. And I know how to deliver results.
"I'm ready to get to work."
Marc Molinaro was elected Mayor of Tivoli at age 19, becoming the youngest mayor in America. He later served in the New York State Assembly, as Dutchess County Executive, and as a member of Congress in New York's 19th Congressional District. Most recently, he served as Administrator of the Federal Transit Administration.
He and his wife reside in Catskill and are the proud parents of four children, one of whom lives on the autism spectrum. Informed by his family's experience, Molinaro founded the Think DIFFERENTLY initiative to support individuals with disabilities.
