Lopez: “… making sure that
family is comfortable …”
SCHOHARIE – State Assemblyman Peter Lopez (R-Schoharie), said he is considering a run for US Congress in the seat being vacated by Congressman Christopher Gibson.
Lopez said he is weighing his options and has not made a decision at this time.
“The most important aspect, of course, is making sure that family is comfortable and that they feel that there is a fit and then looking at the financial team and looking at all of the other aspects of serving an 11-county district, raging $2-$4 million every two years and running back and forth to Washington,” he told MidHudsonNews.com.
A Draft Pete Lopez for Congress Facebook page has been created, but the assemblyman said he has yet to make a decision about his political future.
