Dana Salazar, candidate for the New York State Supreme Court’s Third Judicial District, has been endorsed by the Police Benevolent Association of the New York State Troopers (NYSTPBA). NYSTPBA is a law enforcement and labor organization that represents over 7,000 active and retired members of the New York State Police.

“It is with careful consideration that the NYSTPBA is endorsing Dana Salazar for election to the NYS Supreme Court, 3rd Judicial District,” the group stated in its letter of endorsement. “The NYSTPBA is confident that Dana Salazar is a highly qualified candidate.”

The North Atlantic States Regional Council of Carpenters (NASRCC) has also endorsed her. NASRCC is a labor organization that represents over 28,000 carpenters and related workers in the construction industry.

“We believe in developing and maintaining intelligent labor laws that can serve honest workers and honest employers,” the NASRCC stated. “Our council will always work to ensure and preserve fair labor standards and fight for sustainable capital construction programs which can create jobs and stimulate the economy. 

“At the same time, we understand it is necessary to protect our members from proposals which would weaken their ability to secure work at appropriate wages. These are our guiding principles that we look forward to working with you on, as we know you are the right candidate for NASRCC members.”

Calling the union “an influential voice for working families,” Salazar added, “I recognize their dedication to promoting fair labor standards, creating jobs and economic opportunities, and ensuring justice and equality. As a state Supreme Court judge, I will bring balance to the bench, support the rule of law, and serve the people of the Third Judicial District with integrity, impartiality and compassion.”

The candidate also said, “I am humbled to have the endorsement of the New York State Troopers PBA, a respected and trusted voice for law enforcement and public safety in our state. The New York State Troopers PBA is dedicated to upholding the law, ensuring public safety, and protecting the rights of citizens. As a state Supreme Court judge, I will work hard to ensure that justice is served fairly and bring balance to the bench.” 

Along with receiving the above endorsements, Salazar has also been endorsed by the Republican and Conservative parties.
