From knocking on doors with Labor in Suffolk County to joining Long Islanders for a β€œWhere’s Lalota” rally, it’s been a busy weekend here in the district!

It’s been incredible to connect with voters. Don’t forget to vote on Tuesday!

To Trick-or-Treat or not to Trick-or-Treat? That is the question.

Wishing all of Long Island a Happy Halloween! Stay safe, look out for your neighbors, and have fun!

Nothing is scarier than ineffective government. I promise to be a fighter in Congress and bring common sense back to Washington.

Help us reach our October goal before midnight tonight. secure.actblue.com/donate/cgny-...

Thank you to the North Brookhaven Democrats for having me speak this week. Moments like this remind me of why I am so committed to winning this election.

So glad Nick LaLota has been able to enjoy a rejuvinating vacation while Americans are going without pay and are at risk of not recieving critical benefits.

From skyrocketing rents to health care bills, affordability is a crisis on Long Island.

I am committed to fighting for policies that will let Long Islanders thrive, not just live paycheck to paycheck.

Government dysfunction has become the new normal: blame, stall, and hold America hostage.

Meanwhile, hardworking families keep getting the short end of the stick. We deserve better. Time for real leadership.

It's almost Halloween, but I've been way more scared of our broken government than any scary movie I've seen this season.

Another week of inaction in the books as the government stays shut while politicians play chicken with millions of families' paychecks.

DC needs to quit the theatrics and come to the table to reopen the government now!

Every family on Long Island is feeling it - rent, energy, groceries are all costing more than ever.

While Lalota plays politics, I'm committed to fighting in Congress for real solutions and a more affordable life for Long Islanders.

Congess is running out of time. Millions of Americans might lose essential benefits like SNAP if the government doesn't reopen soon.

SNAP isn't a luxury. It's how many families get food on the table.

Most politicians in Washington don’t understand what happens when they play games with people’s paychecks and public safety. I do.

We deserve leaders who prioritize workers and public safety, not partisan games. We must end the shutdown now.

Wishing a happy and bright Diwali to all who celebrate!

May the Festival of Lights bring joy, peace, and prosperity to families across Long Island and beyond.

Kristi Noem is trying to force airports to play a video blaming Democrats for long lines and unpaid TSA workers. Not only is this a blatant violation of the Hatch Act, but it's a lie to try and absolve Republicans of their role in this government shutdown.

Roughly 46,000 troops won't be paid during the government shutdown Dual-status technicians are full-time members of the Guard and Reserve. And now many are on duty without pay.

When I served in uniform, I was taught to always show up and do the job. Now, nearly 50,000 troops doing the same will go unpaid because of our broken government.

Our service members deserve respect, not political games. www.usatoday.com/story/news/p...

It has now been 20 days since Air Traffic Controllers have been required to keep our skies safe without pay. The government shutdown in Washington must end.

You may have heard Pete Hegseth recently called for a return to a β€œhighest male standard” for combat roles, saying β€œif that means no women qualify, so be it.”

Here's why his comments aren't just wrong, but dangerous πŸŽ₯

Shutdown could hold up food assistance under SNAP program for 160,000 LIers The Trump administration is directing states to stop the process of issuing the monthly food benefits.

160,000 Long Islanders could lose access to their SNAP benefits because of the government shutdown.

While families worry about their next meal, politicians like Nick LaLota are on vacation. No one should go hungry because Washington can’t do its job. www.newsday.com/long-island/...

Do you think Nick LaLota gets the Sunday scaries when he doesn’t have to show up to work on Monday? Bet he’s enjoying the vacation his party gave him.

Health care costs for Long Islanders and all Americans could skyrocket overnight if Republicans refuse to come to the table to negotiate continuing ACA premium subsidies.

Nick Lalota cares more about pleasing his party than fighting for affordable health care.

These aren’t just random internet trolls. This is the crowd Nick LaLota chooses to associate with.

Our district and country deserves better than this toxic politics.

New York Dems’ newest political cudgel? The hate-laced Young Republican chat. As midterms loom, Democratic leaders rush to link their GOP rivals to the messages after POLITICO’s reporting.

These leaked messages from Young Republicans are disgusting β€” full of hate, racism, and extremist rhetoric that has no place in our communities or our politics. www.politico.com/news/2025/10...

Long Island teachers are overworked, classrooms are overcrowded, and families are paying more than ever. But instead of helping, Republicans are focused on culture wars and distractions that hurt our schools.

Watch the video to learn more. πŸŽ₯

Small businesses on Long Island rely on federal broadband funding to stay connected, reach customers, and grow.

Cutting that support would hurt jobs and our communities. Broadband isn't a luxury but a lifeline for small businesses.

Nick LaLota's focused on partisan headlines. I'm focused on people - families trying to make ends meet, veterans waiting on care, small businesses fighting to stay open.

It's time for leadership that puts people over politics.

Trump's deployment of National Guard troops to American cities isn't just dangerous. It's an authoritarian power grab.

Watch and share why this matters for all of us.

During the 2018 shutdown, I was in the Control Tower keeping planes moving while worrying about how to pay rent.

Watch to hear my thoughts on how this shutdown is making an already tough staffing shortage even harder. πŸŽ₯
