Bill Reilich

In Town of Greece v. Galloway, the United States Supreme Court ruled in favor of the practice of opening town meetings with a prayer—a practice Reilich continued from his predecessor.

In November 2013, Reilich was elected to serve as the Supervisor for the Town of Greece.

He was elected to the New York State Assembly in 2002.

Reilich successfully defended his county legislative seat in 1999 and ran unopposed in 2001.

Reilich began his political career by serving on the Greece, New York zoning and environment boards, eventually becoming the GOP chair for the Town of Greece. In the early 1990s, he considered running for the Monroe County, New York legislature, but his campaign failed to materialize when redistricting required by the 1990 census left him without a seat for which to run. In 1997 he was picked by the Republican members of the county legislature, to succeed John T. Auberger who resigned to become Greece town supervisor.

Reilich is a small businessman who founded an alarm systems company in 1975 which he eventually sold. He now owns Rochester Auto Design.
