Aron Wieder takes on dual roles as New York assemblyman and Rockland County legislator

Aron Wieder has started his role as a new assemblyman in New York while also retaining his position as a Rockland County legislator. He confirmed that there are no legal restrictions preventing him from holding both offices simultaneously. Wieder's combined salary for both positions totals $212,500. He stated that constituents encouraged him to keep his county role to address ongoing community projects and individual concerns. A 2022 state law limits lawmakers' outside earnings to $35,000, but this restriction is currently on hold due to ongoing legal challenges. Wieder's county salary exceeds this limit, but the outcome of the appeals could affect his ability to maintain both roles.
