Experience That Matters

As Congressman, Michael Allegretti will be a powerful voice for Staten Island and Brooklyn. With deep roots on both sides of the Verrazano Bridge, and a background that allows him to understand the needs of local business, the challenges of life in our community, and the proper role of government, Michael will be ready to make a difference in Congress on day one. Leveraging his proven ability to forge solutions between people, industry and government, he has the experience that matters to tackle the challenges we face as a community and a nation. From former British Prime Minister Tony Blair, to New York City Mayor Michael Bloomberg, to New York State Senator Marty Golden, leaders across the city and around the world have looked to Michael for counsel on some of the most pressing issues of our day.

An Independent Fiscal Conservative

Michael Allegretti is an independent, fiscal conservative who has worked to advance the principles of smaller, efficient, common sense government for more than a decade. Allegretti defines himself as an Independent Conservative, who wants to bring jobs back to the 13th district, repeal the recent health care legislation and fight against the terror trials being held in New York. He is a committed fiscal conservative who has a proven ability to forge innovative policy solutions with some of the most important leaders across the country. Whether working as an Associate Director for the 2004 Republican National Convention or a Special Assistant to New York State Senator Marty Golden, Michael has always placed good people before partisan politics. He believes that in order to strengthen our economy and create lasting jobs, we must cut taxes and reduce spending. Only by closing the deficit gap and reducing our debt will our community prosper once again.

Michael Allegretti believes in a better Republican Party. As an active member of the Staten Island and Brooklyn Republican Party organizations, Michael believes that the Republican Party must never become the party of no, but instead become the party of better. And in 2008, he worked specifically to advance this ideal as one of a select group to serve on the New York State Republican Strategic Planning Commission, an independent statewide initiative aimed at making the Republican Party a more effective engine for positive change.

Deep Roots in Our Community

It is Michaels family that has played the greatest role in making him a community leader. His late uncle, Victor Allegretti, was a leading supporter of causes such as the American Legion, the Kiwanis, and dozens of Staten Island and Brooklyn based organizations. His late father, Alfred Allegretti, was a hard working entrepreneur who taught Michael that the best way to succeed in business was to provide personal customer service. This lesson is at the core of why Michael believes that speaking directly to voters is so critical. His mother Linda Allegretti, a retired New York City public school teacher, is a community leader who has worked tirelessly to renew a ribbon of decaying parkland along Shore Road, while his brother Vinny and his cousin Fran are active members of the Saint Anselms Youth Activities program. So many of his family from his nieces and nephews to his many cousins have lived within our community for decades.

Ever active in the community that has shaped his life, Michael has served on the Development Committee of the Federation of Italian-American Organizations, the Advisory Board of the Guild for Exceptional Children, and the sustainability committee of his high school, Poly Prep. He also spent a year teaching non-violent offenders who were slated to be paroled, how to read, write and better interact in their communities. Michael holds a Masters Degree in Public Policy from Harvard Universitys Kennedy School of Government and a BA in History from Boston College. Michael was born in Bay Ridge, Brooklyn which is part of the 13th Congressional District.
