Brooklyn Young Republican Club Board of Directors’ testimonial recognizes that “...McLaughlin’s decision to not run took into account the best interests of our party and the fact that he can continue to be a leader from the legislature, where the people’s elected representatives have a duty to check the excesses of the Governor’s capricious big-government policy agenda that seeks to reinforce the status quo....”
