Every decision and vote in the current legislative session should focus on reducing New York's increasing cost of living, according to Simpson. He emphasized that addressing housing and energy costs is crucial to preventing the ongoing population exodus. Simpson expressed his willingness to collaborate with the governor to achieve significant outcomes for the North Country.

"Every decision and every vote in this legislative session must aim to lower New York’s rising cost of living — housing, energy, everything. Empty rhetoric won’t stop our population exodus. I look forward to finding common ground with the governor to deliver meaningful results for the North Country," said Simpson.
