LONG ISLAND FIRST
NO PARTY. NO EXCEPTIONS.
Why Ian?
Ian R. Cohen is running for Congress in NY-1 as an Independent because Long Island deserves a representative who answers to you, not to a party. No party boss. No national committee.
One obligation: the people of NY-1.
A vote for an Independent isn’t a wasted vote, it’s a veto on a system that has failed Long Island for decades. In a divided Congress, Independents decide what passes and what doesn't. Ian will use that leverage to force both parties to deliver for Long Island.
Whether it's a trade deal, a spending bill, or a foreign treaty, Ian will apply one simple metric: The Long Island Test. Does it lower our taxes? Does it make our commute better? Does it keep our families safe? Does it enable us to afford to live here?
If it fails the Long Island Test, it won’t get Ian’s vote.
“Congressmen should sound like the people they represent. Not like they’re auditioning for a cable news panel. I’m going to Washington to call out the dysfunction, the double standards, and the political theatre. To their faces.”
