Addabbo wants to eliminate democracy and choice from voters. Instead of helping constituents, he sponsors bills to prevent challenges to his position on our tax dollars and time. And gives himself a 24% salary increase on top of that.

Joe Addabbo (and company), sure have a problem with public funds-again!
This is what the Citizens Budget Commission said about the City Council’s fictional budget practices, which is a crime. Founded in 1932, the Citizens Budget Commission is a nonpartisan, nonprofit civic organization devoted to influencing constructive change in the finances and services of New York City and New York State governments.
“The use of public funds should be transparent and straight-forward. There is no excuse for fictional items in a budget. Elected officials should be accountable for their budgeting decisions, and that is only possible if the public knows where the money is going. All elected officials bear responsibility for the budgets that they adopt, and Speaker Quinn, in particular, should be held accountable for the City Council’s fiscal practices.”

“You took us for an expensive ride, Addabbo. It costs us our homes!”
Recycled Joe Addabbo gloats about the major role he played voting in the largest property tax increase in NYC history: 18.5%. He lied to us that it “could be repealed at any time.” Why does Joe lie to us? This is a forever tax. Now he wants you to send him to the State Senate to tax us out of our homes. Tax and spend Joe is a retread politician who wants to jump back onto the lucrative merry-go-round of elective offices. Thanks to Joe, we are now 54% higher than the national average.
