NY GOP Leaders Bill Powers & Guy Molinari Endorse Giuliani
Republican Leaders Unite to Chair Giuliani’s New York Efforts
New York City –The Rudy Giuliani Presidential Exploratory Committee today announced former New York State Republican Party Chairman Bill Powers and former Congressman Guy Molinari will chair Mayor Giuliani’s New York statewide efforts. Powers and Molinari are established Republican Party leaders who have both worked on behalf of previous presidential candidates in New York.
“During my time as State Party Chairman I saw the incredible progress Rudy Giuliani made turning conservative principles into real results. He’s a problem solver who made New York City livable again – a place where families can feel safe and secure, entrepreneurs can invest in the future, and small businesses can grow,” former New York State Republican Chairman Bill Powers said.
Former Congressman Guy Molinari added, “What our country needs now more than ever is a proven leader who has a track record of getting results. I’ve had the opportunity to work with Mayor Giuliani and have seen up close his ability to tackle a difficult challenge and come up with a solution that works. When Rudy Giuliani took office, more than one out of every seven New Yorkers was on welfare. Under his leadership, the City cut welfare rolls by more than 640,000. I’m confident that after seeing what Rudy Giuliani has been able to achieve for New York, he’s the right man for the job.”
Mayor Rudy Giuliani thanked Powers and Molinari for their support. “It’s an honor to have the support of two New York Republican leaders that I have had the pleasure of working with over the years. Bill and Guy are not only trusted advisors, but good friends and I am fortunate to have them as part of the team.”
Mr. Molinari was the New York State Chairman of President Bush’s successful 1988 Presidential Campaign.
