POLITICS: Nolan launches Assembly candidacy

Staff Reports
Lockport Union-Sun & Journal

Michael P. Nolan, Elma town supervisor, on Thursday kicked off his campaign for state Assembly, 142nd district.

Nolan, a Subway franchise owner, said he wants to oppose tax increases and work on making Western New York a more attractive place for companies to locate.

“I love our community and it kills me to see our area struggle so,” he said.

Nolan, a Republican, is the youngest supervisor in Elma’s history and has served since 2003. He framed his state campaign as that of a business owner who could contribute “common sense” to Albany.

Nolan pledged he would support eliminating all state tax on gasoline and franchise tax on manufacturers; support a state cap on local property taxes; and work to reduce taxes for health care companies in exchange for the savings being passed on to policyholders.

He also pledged to personally recruit companies to relocate in Western New York.

“My No. 1 priority is to help middle-class families survive,” Nolan said.

Nolan is a lifelong Elma resident and a volunteer firefighter with a 24-year service record. He and his wife, Karla, have three children.

Nolan will pursue the GOP, Conservative and Independence endorsements, he said. Those all were granted to incumbent Assemblyman Michael Cole, R-Alden, in 2006. Cole said this week that he plans to run for re-election on those lines.

The 142nd Assembly district includes the city and town of Lockport and the town of Royalton.
