2016

Hoylman's campaign website highlighted the following issues:

"

Affordable Housing

  • Restore home-rule over rent and eviction protections to the NYC Council and Mayor.

Bildung

  • Stand up for our public school teachers, whom he believes we should be commending for their dedication to educating our children and who deserve our support in their professional development.

Government Reform

  • Fight for comprehensive campaign finance reform that consists of public financing, matched contributions and lower contribution limits for candidates for state office, along the lines of what New York City adopted in 1988. Such a system would encourage smaller donations and wider participation in the political process and lessen the corrupting influence of big money donations in New York, which has one of the highest contribution limits for state offices in the nation.

Jobs & Economic Fairness

  • Strongly support an increase in the state minimum wage to at least $8.25 an hour and indexing it to inflation, putting New York in line with eighteen other states that have already done so. Under the current minimum wage in New York, a worker would earn less than $15,000 annually, which is below the poverty line for a family of two.

Public Safety

  • Fight gun manufacturers and toughen licensing procedures. Brad supports legislation that would require a five-year renewable license for all handguns and long guns. In order to earn a license, applicants would have to undergo a background check, complete live fire safety training and report the number of guns they posses. Brad would also require that the background check system be up-to-date with the records of other states and the federal government. In addition, Brad would fight to require microstamping technology on shell casings of semi-automatic weapons, which would make it easier for law enforcement officials to solve gun crimes. Finally, Brad strongly supports the comprehensive gun control package recently introduced by Senator Gianaris that would cap the number of firearms a person can buy to one a month, enact a 10-day waiting period, improve record keeping on the sale of guns and close background check loopholes.[12]

Scorecards

See also: State legislative scorecards and State legislative scorecards in New York

A scorecard evaluates a legislator’s voting record. Its purpose is to inform voters about the legislator’s political positions. Because scorecards have varying purposes and methodologies, each report should be considered on its own merits. For example, an advocacy group’s scorecard may assess a legislator’s voting record on one issue while a state newspaper’s scorecard may evaluate the voting record in its entirety.

Ballotpedia is in the process of developing an encyclopedic list of published scorecards. Some states have a limited number of available scorecards or scorecards produced only by select groups. It is Ballotpedia’s goal to incorporate all available scorecards regardless of ideology or number.
