I cannot support extending term limits by anything other than a public vote. It's up to the people of New York to decide how long they want their elected officials in office, and they've already told us twice. It's an insult to the democratic process and a slap in the face to New Yorkers to now render those votes meaningless.
What matters here is what New Yorkers think and say on this issue, not what one powerful cosmetics heir has to say. The rules cannot and should not be changed late in the game. That's not the way our democracy works.
This is a decision for the people- not for incumbents, not for editorial boards and not for a few wealthy and powerful individuals.
