Immigration

No verified public policy position from Frank M. Bogulski's 2026 New York State Assembly District 149 campaign on immigration was found. His campaign platform discusses affordability, taxes, education, bureaucracy, regulations, downtown Buffalo, and Lake Erie, but does not state an immigration policy position; his law-office site separately advertises immigration legal services, which is not a legislative stance.

Climate & Energy

Frank Bogulski’s campaign platform for New York State Assembly District 149 emphasizes local environmental protection for Lake Erie while also opposing offshore wind development in the lake and seeking to loosen SEQRA and green-building rules to speed construction. VOTE411 lists a climate-change question for Bogulski but says the candidate has not responded, so the available Climate & Energy record appears to come mainly from his campaign website.

Public Safety
