On this 4th of July, we at Long Island Patriot Radio were honored to host Senator Mario Mattera for an enlightening and impactful discussion on the freedoms that define us as Americans. The special broadcast, aired on the 4th of July on 103.9 FM, which delved into the critical issues facing New York and how we can restore the values that our forefathers fought so valiantly to establish.
Senator Mattera, a staunch Republican conservative, brought a powerful message of hope, resilience, and action to our listeners. As we celebrate Independence Day, it's essential to remember the sacrifices made by our ancestors to secure our liberty and the ongoing struggle to maintain these freedoms in the face of current challenges.
One of the primary topics discussed was the impact of illegal immigration on our communities. Senator Mattera emphasized how New York's status as a sanctuary state has led to increased crime, drug issues, and violence. He passionately argued that we need stricter immigration policies to protect law-abiding citizens and maintain order, stating, "We cannot afford to allow anyone and everyone in without proper scrutiny. This has made our communities unsafe and compromised the very freedoms our forefathers fought for."
Senator Mattera also addressed the failures of bail reform, highlighting how it has led to more crime and less safety. He called for the complete overhaul or elimination of the current policy, arguing that it prioritizes the rights of criminals over the safety of victims. "This bail reform has failed us miserably," he said. "We need to ensure public safety and justice for victims. It's time to put an end to these soft-on-crime policies."
The discussion also covered the detrimental effects of congestion pricing on working families. Senator Mattera vehemently opposed this policy, describing it as an unfair burden that drives residents away from New York. He proposed alternative solutions to address traffic congestion and transportation funding without harming New Yorkers. "Congestion pricing is another nail in the coffin for many families struggling to make ends meet," he asserted. "We need solutions that don't punish the hardworking people of our state."
Senator Mattera didn't shy away from addressing the politicization of law enforcement. He called for restoring respect and support for our officers while maintaining accountability. "Current policies have turned law enforcement into a politicized circus," he stated. "We need to restore respect for our officers and ensure they have the resources to protect our communities effectively."
Throughout the broadcast, Senator Mattera emphasized the importance of restoring respect, affordability, values, and freedom in New York. He called for common-sense policies that prioritize the needs of law-abiding families and ensure a brighter future for all residents. "It's time for us to reclaim our state's promise," he urged. "We need to restore the freedoms and values that made New York great."
As we reflect on the values of the 4th of July, Senator Mattera's message is clear: maintaining our freedoms requires vigilance and action. He encouraged listeners to get involved in the political process, vote for change, and support initiatives that will restore New York’s promise. "This 4th of July, let's commit to fighting for the freedoms that define us as Americans," he said. "God bless America, and let's hold faith that better days are just around the corner. But this change must start with us."
We were thrilled to engage with our audience throughout the show, taking calls and messages from listeners who shared their concerns and support for Senator Mattera's vision. The response was overwhelmingly positive, with many expressing their eagerness to see the proposed changes implemented.
As we celebrate this Independence Day, let us remember the values that make our nation great and commit to working together to ensure a safer, more affordable, and more prosperous New York. Senator Mattera’s appearance on Long Island Patriot Radio was a reminder of the power we hold as citizens to effect change.
