The Republican ex-senate majority leader, Dean Skelos. He has been charged with an influence peddling scheme which he concocted with his son, Adam.

Skelos was arrested on federal corruption charges on May 4, 2015, including “conspiracy, extortion, and solicitation of bribes” according to the New York Times.

The charges deal with the awarding of a $12 million contract to a company that hired his son. Investigators allegedly caught him on wiretaps boasting of his power. His son, Adam Skelos, was also charged in the case.

Skelos vacated his post as Senate Majority Leader on May 11, 2015, a week after being charged.

Start with Skelos and his despicable son. then Cuomo and then the rest of the legislature and executive. The state should be put into receivership, have new elections called and deny any current state or municipal elected or appointed official the right to run. The state’s voters should be presented a constitutional amendment adjusting the legislative term limits for assembly and senate to no more than eight years service total, not consecutive. Pay should be raised including the cost of housing in Albany and no outside income of any kind to be allowed. No relatives by blood or marriage of any member of the legislature or elected executive office holders may be employed by any department of state or local government, unless that employment predates election. If so then the employee may not receive any job promotion other than by competitive civil service exam as long as his relative holds office. No relative of any elected govt ofiicial may do business with the state govt as long as the official remains in office.
