β€œProud to endorse Chris Gallant in New York’s First Congressional District because he has always stood by a woman’s right to choose. [] Chris will fight to protect abortion rights and is the right Democrat for the job. I believe he can take NY01’s seat back and Democrats should rally behind him.”

Today, we mourn the loss of Reverend Jesse Jackson. My thoughts go out to his family and loved ones.

Let’s honor his legacy by carrying on his values and beliefs.

Voting to increase funding for ICE without those reforms is not leadership, it’s indifference. Nick LaLota needs to grow a spine and act to protect our communities, or step aside.

Another American in Minnesota is dead as a result of masked agents terrorizing our communities. Leadership means protecting our communities and ensuring federal agencies operate with clear oversight, strict use-of-force standards, and accountability when things go wrong.

Today should have been the 53rd anniversary of Roe v. Wade.
My nieces shouldn’t have fewer rights than my mother.

Everyone deserves the freedom to make their own health care decisions β€” and I’ll fight to protect those rights in Congress.

Hey Nick LaLota, if you have to spend $25 to β€˜save,’ prices aren’t down.

Thank you to everyone who came out to our meet & greet in Manorville!

Meeting new neighbors and learning what matters most to them is what this campaign is all about.

Jimmy’s life of service as a volunteer EMT and community advocate reflects the values that drive my own work in uniform, in the firehouse, and in the labor movement.

I’m grateful for his support as we fight for equality, inclusion, and a fair shot for every Long Islander.

I’m proud to be endorsed by Jimmy Mack, the first openly gay man elected to the Southampton Town Trustees and a Suffolk County Healthcare Hero of the Year.

Today, we honor the life & legacy of Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. For many of us, this is more than just a federal holiday. It's a reminder that the progress we have made as a nation was not accidental but built by people who were willing to sacrifice, organize & demand better from their government.

Millennials priced out of hometowns, while Gen Z wonders if they'll ever enter the housing game "My mom grew up there, all of her siblings, and I grew up there," one 20-year-old Southold resident said. But she doesn't "see it as a realistic possibility" herself.

Young Long Islanders are being priced out of the communities they grew up in. I’m running for Congress to fight for housing solutions that let the next generation stay, work, and raise families right here.

This poll confirms what Long Islanders already know: Nick LaLota isn’t getting the job done.

While Suffolk County families are struggling to afford housing, healthcare, and everyday necessities, LaLota keeps backing policies that make life here more and more expensive.

What happened in Minnesota today is tragic and deeply troubling. My thoughts are with the family and loved ones of Renee Nicole Good.

There must be a full, transparent, and independent investigation. Congress must perform its oversight duties and hold DHS accountable.

Americans deserve better.

We must remember January 6th and stand with the officers and first responders who defended the Constitution and the democratic process.

I've sworn an oath to the defend the constitution and I will never stay silent when it is threatened.

Donald Trump ran on ending endless wars, keeping America out of new conflicts and putting America first. But launching military action without Congress and talking about taking control of another nation is the exact opposite.

NicolΓ‘s Maduro is a brutal, illegitimate dictator who has oppressed the Venezuelan people and driven millions from their homes. But removing a dictator does not justify launching or supporting military action without the consent of Congress or the American people.

Donald Trump’s β€œWarrior Dividend” is a distraction from the cuts his administration made to the VA and the veterans who rely on it.

As a veteran, I won’t stay silent.

Trump pauses offshore wind projects, including two off Long Island’s coast The five projects affected include the Sunrise Wind and Empire Wind projects, both off the coast of New York, as well as the Vineyard Wind 1 off

How many union workers woke up today wondering if they still have a job?

Pausing major energy projects puts good-paying union jobs at risk, creates uncertainty for our energy supply, and threatens to push electric bills even higher on Long Island.

We deserve better than Washington chaos.

I’m honored to earn John Avlon’s endorsement. John ran a campaign rooted in facts, fairness, and putting Long Island first.

Together, we’re going to flip NY-01.

If Nick LaLota was serious about keeping healthcare affordable, he would’ve signed on when there was still time to save the tax credits folks rely on from expiring and keep health care costs from rising.

His 11th hour performance isn't fooling anyone.

Nick LaLota has mastered the art of β€œdoing something” without actually doing anything. He introduces last minute bills he knows won’t pass, talks up bipartisanship and then, when it matters, votes against the best interests for Long Islanders.

No one should be deciding between buying holiday gifts or having health insurance. In Congress, I’ll fight to lower premiums and out-of-pocket costs so families can focus on what matters most.
