The Reform Party, founded by Ross Perot in 1995, has long stood for clean government, fiscal responsibility, and common-sense leadership. Today's endorsement reflects the alignment of Hernandez's campaign with those principles.
“Joseph Hernandez represents the kind of leadership New Yorkers deserve-independent, accountable, and deeply committed to the public good,” said Reform Party of the United States Chairman Nicholas Hensley. “His track record of standing up for working families, fighting for government transparency, and championing practical solutions makes him the ideal candidate to lead the city forward.”
“The Reform Party was created to challenge entrenched political machines and restore integrity to government. Joseph Hernandez embodies that mission,” said Reform Party of New York State Chairman Leigh Pollet. “He owes nothing to special interests or career politicians. His only allegiance is to the citizens of New York City. That is why both the state and national Reform Party proudly endorse him.”
Hernandez's campaign reflects the Reform Party's core platform:
— Accountability in Government:End corruption, enforce transparency, and restore ethics in public service.
— Fiscal Responsibility:Balance budgets, eliminate wasteful spending, and protect taxpayers.
— Political Reform:Challenge entrenched machines, fight special interests, and ensure fair elections.
— Economic Growth:Promote policies that create jobs, strengthen small businesses, and expand opportunity.
— Public Safety and Community Standards:Support strong, safe communities through fair law enforcement and civic responsibility.
In accepting the endorsement, Hernandez said: “I am honored to have the support of the Reform Party at both the state and national level. This is the party of Ross Perot, a movement built on the idea that politics should serve people, not the other way around. That is why I am running: to clean up New York, make it safe, restore opportunity, and prove that government can work again. My only boss is the people of this great city.”
