THE CONSERVATIVE PARTY OF LONG ISLAND

Founded in 1962, the Conservative Party of New York State emerged as a response to the prevailing liberal ideologies, advocating for traditional American values like individual freedom, responsibility, and effort. Over decades, it transformed from a modest group into a robust statewide organization, influencing major elections and securing significant victories, including seats in the U.S. Senate, House of Representatives, and various local offices.

Key achievements include contributing to Governor George E. Pataki’s election victories and opposing initiatives like the School Bond Act and transportation bonds, highlighting its role in advocating for conservative principles and fiscal responsibility. The party’s history is marked by leadership that has guided significant electoral successes and initiatives against liberal proposals, underscoring its ongoing commitment to shaping the state’s and nation’s political landscapes.
