A Message from Minority Leader

John J. Mills

Dear Taxpayer:

Welcome to the online home of the Erie County Republican Legislators! 

In 2009, your wisdom and assistance elected three new members to our caucus, doubling our influence in the Erie County Legislature.  At that time, we promised that we would work to reform the size and scope of government.  Like you, we wanted a government that was smaller, smarter and cost-effective.

Toward that end, we closed our district offices, saving thousands in taxpayer dollars. We reduced the size and cost of the Legislature, putting your money back in your pocket. And we voted 154 times in a row to keep your taxes from rising during the 2011 budget debate.

Today, I am happy to report that those promises made are now promises kept! When government works like this, the taxpayer wins, and that's what my colleagues and I are committed to delivering. 

Thank you for visiting our website and for your continued support. If you have any questions, please feel free to contact us.

Regards,

John J. Mills
