Since publishing my last post, Let’s Build the Downtown Brighton, I’ve heard from so many of you: residents, shop owners, and neighbors — who care deeply about what happens along Monroe Avenue. I wrote about one of those conversations in this week's Substack article:

Brighton's own Ernie Clement was the hero in Game 2 for the @BlueJays! You've made Brighton proud, Ernie! I'm thinking we may need an Ernie Clement day in Brighton... What do you say, @brightonbruins?

I have had many conversations with residents about creating a more central village feel along Monroe Avenue—a true “Downtown Brighton” where people can live, shop, gather, and enjoy a vibrant public square. Click the link below to read more: https://t.co/rUrI1Pmvtn

.@SenatorCooney & Councilman @nate_salzman nailed it: government should make it easier to build what our community needs. Are we acting urgently enough to meet the challenges of our time? Grateful for Jeremy’s and Nate’s leadership! Take a listen ⬇️ https://t.co/Ej4Lnbopx7

One of my goals in running for Town Council was to make local government more accessible and transparent. That’s why I’m starting this Substack: https://t.co/duIoj05DsA

New post: MAGA energy policy means raising electricity prices to own the libs Sacrificing material prosperity for post-material politics used to be what I thought the far right called "woke." But this is exactly what the Big Beautiful Bill does on energy policy. It singles out

Joined neighbors this morning at Buckland Park’s Veterans Memorial. On Memorial Day, we pause to remember those who gave everything for our country and the families who carry their memory every day. Grateful to live in a town that continues to honor their sacrifice.

Sickening. American Jews in 2025 risk their lives to attend temple, wear a kippah, even visit the Jewish History Museum to discuss peace and aide for Gaza. May Sarah and Yaron’s memory be a blessing.
Gunned down Israeli Embassy staffer Sarah Milgrim worked on peace-building between Palestinians and Israelis, her grieving father says: ‘That’s the irony’ https://t.co/Y22aAvrfhy

General Motors is bringing in potentially groundbreaking new battery tech that not only has 30% more energy density at the existing production cost for cells but also would circumvent China's stranglehold on intellectual property for EV batteries. https://t.co/IHi6vux9ok

General Motors has cracked the chemistry of lower-cost, energy-dense electric vehicle batteries. Budget-conscious gasoline holdouts may soon have no excuse.

On the latest episode of From the Lobby, I sat down with Alec Lewis to talk about how those experiences shaped my approach to local government — and why I believe towns like Brighton can lead the way on big issues like climate. @AlecDLewis @odandassociates

The Federal Administration's lawsuit and Homan's visit are about trying to coerce local government to become a part of this runaway abuse of government power. I'm proud of the City of Rochester and our Town of Brighton for fighting back.

He's overseen policies that have kidnapped US citizens, deported American children with stage 4 cancer, and mistakenly sent the "wrong" person to an El Salvadorian gulag. Anyone who values individual freedoms should be alarmed.

Today Trump’s “border czar,” Tom Homan is visiting Rochester to pick a fight. Homan embodies the most extreme elements of the administration: cruelty, incompetence, and lawlessness.
In new details, attorneys say ICE explicitly told one mother to bring her children with her to a check-in and knew in advance that another mother’s child had Stage 4 cancer.
