Assemblyman Chris Tague continues to work on behalf of the people of rural New York as he has been recently named the vice chairman of the Republican Assembly Steering Committee and will remain the ranking member of the Assembly Agriculture Committee.
In his capacity as vice chairman, Tague will continue to collaborate with Assembly Republicans to ensure each is in a place to succeed and deliver for their district and help guide the state Republican Party towards its goals. As ranking member, Tague will continue to lead Republican efforts in government with respect to the long-term work of the agriculture sector of New York. Eager to continue delivering for New Yorkers, Tague is excited for what the new year—and these roles—will bring.
“As a former dairy farmer myself, I look forward to never backing down in the fight to protect our farmers and the critical work they do keeping food on our tables and product in our stores,” Tague said. “We continue to face many obstacles, the largest of which being one-party control of government and the continued favoritism of New York City-centric interests. You can count on me to remain a loud and passionate voice for common sense in New York.”
Assembly Minority Conference Leader Will Barclay (R,C-Pulaski) said, “Chris Tague has been a fearless fighter for the people of his district, for our Conference and for the common-sense policies needed to get New York moving in the right direction. I’m happy to have him on our Conference leadership team. His firsthand experience has been invaluable as ranking member of the Assembly Agriculture Committee. As he continues in that role, New York’s farmers and the agricultural community will once again have Albany’s strongest voice working on their behalf.”
“Rural New Yorkers shouldn’t have to fight for respect; they deserve it. The Albany process must recognize this, and that’s what I’ll continue to fight for,” Tague concluded.
