Queens County Republican Chairman Phil Ragusa passed away Tuesday, around 1pm, from complications due to his battle with leukemia. Chairman Ragusa dedicated his life to serving his community and the Republican Party. He voluntarily served the United War Veterans Council and the Little Neck Douglaston Memorial Day Parade doing their accounting and tax returns pro bono up until this year’s parade in May. He was a patriot who loved his city, state and country. Our prayers go out to the Ragusa family, friends and fellow Republicans who knew him. May you rest in peace Chairman Ragusa.

Stop the Elmhurst Homeless Shelter Now!
Queens was always the quiet, unnoticed and unheralded borough of New York City throughout most of its history. Its residents characteristically have been hard working citizens, who paid their taxes, obeyed the law, and sent their children to the best schools in order to do better than their parents.
However in recent weeks we awoke to find our beloved communities beginning to be transformed by a newly elected city administration which has violated its own laws and regulations.

NYPD members can be SUED! – State Supreme Court Judge Anil Singh
By Ed Mullins — Thursday, June 19th, 2014; 4:42 p.m. ‘Sergeants Benevolent Association E-mail’On Wednesday June 18, 2014 State Supreme Court Judge ruled members of the NYPD who engage in Stop, Question and Frisk can now be sued in accordance with the provisions of Local Law 71 as passed by City Council. Once again I remind each of you, this law impacts your career, family and overall well-being. As you go to work each day, your only assignment is to return home to your family. The POLITICIANS and the PEOPLE of this city are NOT SUPPORTING you, make no mistake about it! Shootings are on the rise and gun arrests are down. DO NOT jeopardize your safety, careers and pensions! We are currently exploring an appeal.
