William Conrad III

D · New York State Assembly, District 140 · Tier 1/2

Tier 1/2, between “Firmly pro-Israel” and “Mainstream pro-Israel”

Position

A2139-A (IHRA codification) cosponsor. His complete Assembly press archive from January 2021 through June 2026 contains no item mentioning Israel, Gaza, Hamas, antisemitism, IHRA, BDS, campus protests, arms transfers or Palestinian rights; the output is uniformly hyperlocal. Besides the cosponsorship, he was one of 133 multi-sponsors of K509, the May 2025 Assembly resolution congratulating Israel on its 77th anniversary. Certified uncontested for both the Democratic and Working Families designations in AD-140.

Why this tier

A 1/2, on a thin record: two signatures and no words of his own. He cosponsored A2139-A, the bill to codify the IHRA definition of antisemitism in New York, and in May 2025 was one of 133 multi-sponsors of K509, the Assembly resolution congratulating Israel on its 77th anniversary. Neither is leadership: he wrote neither text. His Assembly press archive from January 2021 through June 2026 has no item on Israel, Gaza, antisemitism, BDS or Palestinian rights, so there is no expressed concern for Palestinian civilians either. Two signatures on texts others wrote, with nothing else in either direction, are a slender basis for any placement.
