Lee Zeldin is missing in action.
Recently, I received a flashy flier from Lee Zeldin touting his accomplishments for the East End. Clearly, it is a piece intended to bolster his reelection in November.
Remarkably, it clearly states: “This mailing was prepared, published and mailed at taxpayer expense.”
I can tell you that I don’t want my taxes used to pay for Lee Zeldin’s campaigning. It should be illegal for him to do this.
Further, I twice called his offices inquiring about what he was doing for East End taxpayers who utilized Suffolk County’s septic grant program. I have not gotten any reply from him or anyone in his offices.
It’s outrageous that he is using our taxpayer money to fund his reelection mailers, and at the same time he doesn’t respond to legitimate requests for his assistance.
The man is missing in action.
I will not be voting for him in November, and I urge you to vote for somebody else as well.

Are You OK?All leaders, especially political leaders, make decisions consistent with their own belief system and ideology. However, our current president is so pathologically self-absorbed that his personality completely dominates his presidency and his policies. His executive orders are not a statement...
Come and Tell UsWhen Tim Bishop was our congressman, he held numerous town hall meetings with his constituents. They were raucous affairs. Those were the days of the Tea Party, and its members were outraged that the federal government was expanding health care...
A SuggestionI have a suggestion for Craig Catalanotto, who is on record for opposing cross-endorsements and for allegedly switching alliances from Democratic to Republican Party candidates, such as Cyndi McNamara and Stephen Kiely. When the Pine Barrens Commission was in the...
