Happy Sunday - we hope you are enjoying your weekend and ready to start the new year!

Welcome back to Team Elise's weekly newsletter! We send a weekly note to Elise's supporters to update you on what she's working on in Washington and across NY-21!

Here are a few top Team Elise updates and stories we have been tracking for the past week! 

Elise’s Statement on the Unconstitutional Attempt to Remove President Trump from the Maine Ballot

Another day and another desperate attempt by corrupt Democrats to interfere in the election on behalf of Joe Biden. This time, some no-name leftist Secretary of State thinks she has the power to unilaterally remove President Trump from the ballot. On this, Elise released the following statement:

“Another day, another illegal and corrupt act by the desperate radical Democrats weaponizing government against President Trump, Joe Biden’s top political opponent. The Far Left Democrat Maine Secretary of State just unilaterally removed President Trump off the ballot. This is election interference, voter suppression, and a blatant attack on democracy. The Supreme Court must overturn this unprecedented and unconstitutional action now.”

Elise Slams Kathy Hochul’s Shameful Power Grab Nationalizing New York’s Local Elections

Last Friday night, it was reported that corrupt Kathy Hochul signed another radical Far Left bill to change Upstate New York elections from odd years to even years, nationalizing local elections and only for certain Upstate New York races, not all of them.

"On the Friday before Christmas, our corrupt Governor Kathy Hochul signed a radical Far Left bill to change longstanding election law to nationalize our local elections. As if trying to gerrymander the state and federal lines illegally wasn't enough, now the corrupt Albany Democrats and Kathy Hochul have destroyed our local Upstate New York elections by nationalizing them. It is clear they will stop at nothing to rig elections in their favor; New Yorkers of all parties oppose this blatant power grab, and trying to hide it during Christmas weekend is disgraceful. In 2024, Republicans will crush New York Democrats at the ballot box and put a stop to Albany Democrats' radical Socialist agenda."

Albany Supreme Court Dismisses Request to Halt Unconstitutional Implementation of Illegal Unregulated Mass Mail-in Ballots

On Thursday, Elise put corrupt New York Democrats on blast following the Albany Supreme Court's decision to dismiss the request to halt the implementation of their unconstitutional, illegal, and unregulated mass mail-in ballot scheme. Remember, Elise, the NYGOP and NY Conservative Party coalition are suing Kathy Hochul for her unconstitutional schemes.

"The decision to dismiss our request for an injunction to halt the implementation of mass unregulated mail-in early voting is just another example of New York’s lawless and rampant corruption. The New York Constitution is very clear, if you would like to request an absentee ballot, there is a safe and legal process; unregulated mass mail-in ballots are illegal. Hardworking families in New York State deserve fair and legal elections. It is shameful that we argued for a fair and legal election on October 13th only to get a ruling at 11pm on December 26th. If Democrats can't win through a legal election, they cheat and that has never been more clear than right here in New York."

A Christmas and New Years Message from Elise:

“This is a time to gather with friends and family to reflect on our many blessings. It is also a time to look beyond ourselves and give back to our communities. As we gather with friends and family to reflect on our many blessings this Christmas, I hope you’ll join me in thanking the incredible people who make up the fabric of our community.

This holiday season, my thoughts and prayers are with the brave men and women who serve our country to keep us safe, especially those who may be spending their Christmas away from their families. I am thankful for our Fort Drum and 10th Mountain Division Servicemembers, our veterans across Upstate New York and the North Country, and our military families. Thank you for your service and sacrifice.

To our farmers and small businesses who are the engine of our local economy, thank you for your hard work!

While we all have so much to be thankful for this Christmas, I am incredibly grateful for the honor of serving you in Congress, working to bring the concerns of Upstate New York and the North Country to the highest levels.

From my family to yours, Merry Christmas and Happy New Year!”
