PBA OF WESTCHESTER COUNTY, INC. STRONGLY ENDORSES
ROB ASTORINO FOR COUNTY EXECUTIVE

 

Says "Astorino will Bring Leadership and
Needed Change to County Government"

 

Pleasantville, NY- June 14...Reform Westchester County Executive candidate Rob Astorino (R-I), who is running for County Executive to "stop the tax madness", streamline government services, and restore a high standard of ethics to County government, today announced that he has been endorsed by The Policemen's Benevolent Association of Westchester County, Inc. (PBA of Westchester).

Mr. Astorino has a long history of serving alongside Westchester police officers. He served for eight years as Chairman of the Mount Pleasant Public Safety Committee, which oversees the Mount Pleasant Police Department.

"Rob Astorino is the candidate we need to move Westchester forward," said Joseph Giustino, past president and Chairman of the Endorsement Committee of the PBA of Westchester. "Mr. Astorino's commitment to public safety and determination to make Westchester affordable again for middle-class families make him a leader the Westchester PBA, Inc. is proud to support. "

"I am honored to be endorsed by the men and women of the PBA of Westchester," said Mr. Astorino. "Nothing is more important than public safety, and, as County Executive, I will make sure that our officers have the tools they need to keep our families and communities safe. But more than that, I will devote myself to streamlining county government and reducing taxes so that police officers, firefighters, teachers and other hardworking public servants can continue living in this county."

Founded in 1913, the PBA of Westchester County, Incorporated is the oldest fraternal organization in Westchester. Comprised of police officers from across Westchester County, the organization seeks to foster good relations between departments and encourages service to the community.
