Thank you for your interest in my campaign.

My name is Peter Hort and I want to represent you in the United States Congress. My campaign is about ideas, not ideology. I am running an idea-oriented campaign. I look forward to earning your support and your vote in November and serving you in the United States Congress.

I offer unconventional thinking and creative approaches to problems that many see as unsolvable. People in New York City used to accept crime as just a fact of life. Our leaders said, what can we really do? Then Mayor Rudy Giuliani came along and asked us to raise our standards and try new ideas. It worked. A decade later major crime is at a 40 year low and still going down.

We still have real problems in education, health care and with the economy. Once again we have a choice: either throw up our hands and declare defeat — or try new ideas that just might work.

New Yorkers deserve a Congressman who will work with others on all sides of the political spectrum, improving our schools, supporting economic growth, creating new jobs and combating terrorism.

I offer ideas, not ideology.
