ROCKLAND COUNTY, NY – Assemblyman Karl A. Brabenec (R,C – Deerpark) announced last week that he intends to seek re-election to the New York State Assembly.

“I am so very proud of the hard work that my team and I have done over the past few years,” said Brabenec. “I will always fight for the residents of my district to lower taxes and fees, reduce burdensome regulations, improve public safety, assist our agriculture community, and improve our quality of life. There is still much work to be done, but I’m positive that with the continued fight against Albany’s dysfunction, we can make New York State the Empire State once again!”

Brabenec was first elected to the Assembly in 2014. He represents the 98th Assembly District, which comprises portions of western and southern Orange County and the northwestern portion of the Town of Ramapo in Rockland County. He serves as Minority Whip of the Republican Conference and ranking member of the Assembly Labor Committee. In addition, he is a member of the Ways and Means, Rules, and Election Law committees. Previous to being elected to the Assembly, he served as Deerpark Town Supervisor for five years.
