NEW RENSCO DISTRICT 5 SOLIDARITY CHRONICLE!
Welcome!
As you know, I did not win a seat on the Rensselaer County Legislature. However, I hope to leverage our collective solidarity to create a powerful political voice for democracy in this district. We believe in the values of Equality for all, personal Integrity, and Liberty for all. By "all" we mean all PEOPLE.
Going forward, this Website allows you to:

- find out about Issues that affect us all
- find out the News of the district
Please use the menu above to access any of those topics.
What does the Rensselaer County legislature do?
How many of us can really answer that question? Certainly, they are supposed to represent us. How can they represent us if they never tell us what they are voting on or ask for our opinion?
I am running for County Legislator because I know that the County Legislature does very important work. They vote to set County property tax rates and they vote to approve the budget which allocates all funding for County projects. And there is a whole lot more that they COULD be doing for us.
Shouldn't your voice be represented by your legislators?
I will keep you informed and, if you communicate with me, I will represent you and work for what you need.
Alan Gaynor for change!
