“As a former crisis intervention worker and professor of criminal justice, I understand that diversifying our response to crisis changes lives and makes our communities safer. When we respond to crises with the appropriate professional - from mental health to elder care specialists - we free up our law enforcement professionals to focus on community safety.”
(Campaign website (michelefrazier.com)) “Now, I want to take this experience and bring positive change to the communities of the 51st District. Together, we can make rural New York a place where everyone looking to plant roots, grow their families and flourish in their communities can thrive.”
(Campaign website (michelefrazier.com)) “Protect Rural Healthcare and mental health access by working to counter the destructive funding cuts that have eliminated health insurance for tens of thousands of people and threatened our vulnerable hospitals and healthcare facilities with closure. No family should have to choose between getting care and paying the bills.”

“As a former dairy farmer myself, I’m proud to see the passage of the Whole Milk for Healthy Kids Act this year. This is a win for our kids who will now have access to real, nutrient-dense milk, and it’s a win for New York’s hard-working dairy producers who have struggled with declining school milk consumption for far too long.”
(Official legislative newsroom (nyassembly.gov)) “We must keep fighting for our agricultural sector by prioritizing smart investments in cutting-edge technology, research and on-farm efficiency improvements that help our producers stay competitive. At the same time, we need to ease the heavy regulatory burdens that too often tilt the playing field against our farmers and processors.”
