Happy Saturday!

Welcome to our new weekly House GOP Battleground Fund newsletter. We send this email out exclusively to our top supporters who are invested in our fight to Save NY from radical leftist policies – and protect the ‘battleground’ congressional seats in New York State.

In 2022, we elected five republicans in battleground congressional seats. These gains secured the GOP house majority last cycle – and we have a responsibility to protect these seats as we move into 2024.

We greatly appreciate your investment into our House GOP Battleground Fund. We are on the front lines of NY’s grassroots field efforts; and this newsletter is our way to keep you posted on our efforts. We hope you will continue to support this very critical effort.

Please reach out to Lianna ([email protected]) or Alex ([email protected]) on our team if you have any questions or would like to get more involved.

‘Mike Lawler isn't hiding’: NY City & State NY Magazine Profile

Mike Lawler, the freshman NY Congressman from NY-17 – who claimed one of the biggest upsets last cycle by defeating Sean Patrick Maloney the DCCC Chair – was featured on the front cover of New York’s City & State magazine this week.

The feature highlighted Mike running in the ‘swingiest’ district in NY state –  which he won in 2022 with just 0.6% of the vote, clearing the pathway for a Republican House Majority.

Mike is a top target for the left for this upcoming 2024 election – and millions of dollars in dark liberal money are pouring into the Hudson Valley.

Bottom line: Keeping this seat red is critical to our protect the house efforts. We need to hold down NY congressional seats in order to keep our Republican House Majority. If not, we’ll be back with Speaker Pelosi – or probably much worse. 

Speaker McCarthy Visits Upstate New York  Supporting Brandon Williams and Marc Molinaro

Speaker McCarthy joins Brandon Williams in NY-22:

Rep. Brandon Williams, another one of our 2022 Majority makers, welcomed a special in-district visit from Speaker Kevin McCarthy this week.

The Speaker joined Rep. Brandon Williams in Skaneateles, NY; to tour JMA Wireless, a major industrial hub in the district, and later headlined a successful fundraiser for Brandon. If you couldn't make it, but would like to support the recent event, you can do so by clicking the button below!

The freshman Congressman is a top target for House Democrats in 2024 and already has three opponents attempting to steal the seat. His opponents include: Sarah Klee Hood, who ran an unsuccessful campaign in 2022, being defeated in the Democratic primary– Left-wing New York State Senator, John Mannion, and Clemmie Harris, a college professor.

His district includes Onondaga, Madison and Oneida counties, plus a piece of Oswego County –  borders NY-21, Elise’s district!

Speaker McCarthy joins Marc Molinaro in NY-19:

Rep. Marc Molinaro was joined by Speaker McCarthy in Sullivan County, NY to rally supporters as we near the 2024 election cycle. Like the other candidates we have highlighted in this newsletter, Marc is at the top of the list for Democrats to attempt to overthrow in next year’s election.

New York’s 19th District is predominantly rural and encompasses Cortland, Thompkins, Tioga, Broome, Chenango, Delaware, Greene, and Sullivan counties, along with parts of Ulster County and Otsego County (which is split with Elise!)

NY-19 came out and rallied behind Marc and his fight to protect NY-19 from NY democrats. As you can see– Marc had a packed event with the Speaker!

We are working hard to save NY and we're grateful to have you on our team. We hope you stay involved with our efforts as we move forward into the 2024 election year.

Sincerely,

Team Elise & the House GOP Battleground Fund Team
