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

Elise Joins Sunday Morning Futures on Fox News

Elise joined Maria Bartiromo on Sunday Morning Futures last week to discuss the newly drafted articles of impeachment against Department of Homeland Security Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas. Elise and House Republicans have been at the forefront of impeachment efforts against Mayorkas since the beginning of Biden’s catastrophic border crisis. Joe Biden and Alejandro Mayorkas’s open border policies are having extreme effects on New Yorkers and Americans. While on the show, Elise also discussed her efforts in combatting the far left’s weaponization of the judicial system against Joe Biden’s leading political opponent, President Trump, the impeachment inquiry into Joe Biden, and how House Republicans are holding higher education institutions accountable for anti-Semitism on campuses.

Elise Releases Statement on the Advancement of Articles of Impeachment for Department of Homeland Security Secretary Mayorkas

Following months of investigations by the House Committee on Homeland Security, articles of impeachment for DHS Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas have been advanced. Elise and House Republicans will continue to hold Secretary Mayorkas accountable for his unAmerican response to the crisis at our nation’s borders. Read Elise’s statement –

“I strongly support Chairman Green and Homeland Security Committee Republicans for taking this important step to hold Secretary Mayorkas accountable for willfully and systemically refusing to comply with federal immigration laws and acting in a manner subversive of the rule of law and creating the most pressing humanitarian, national security, and homeland crisis in our nation’s history. The catastrophic Biden border crisis, which Mayorkas is the architect of, has turned every American community into a border community and destroyed countless American families in the process, including my home state of New York where illegal encounters along the Swanton and Buffalo Sector of the Northern Border have skyrocketed. House Republicans will continue to fight to secure the border and hold Joe Biden and his Administration accountable."

Elise and NY Republicans Fight to Secure the Border

Following last week's breaking news out of Texas, Elise spearheaded a letter to Governor Kathy Hochul, co-signed by eight of the nine Republican Congressional Representatives in New York. The letter addressed the destructive impact of Joe Biden’s border crisis on hardworking Americans in every corner of the country. Elise called on Kathy Hochul to join Governors from across the country in standing with Texas Governor Greg Abbott as he fights on the front line of Biden’s border crisis. Elise stated –

“Far Left Kathy Hochul has openly admitted that New York taxpayers cannot afford to continue subsidizing the illegal immigrants pouring in through our borders because of Joe Biden’s disastrous open border policies."

Elise Slams Harvard Election Interference

On Wednesday, Elise released a statement following reports from Bill Ackman and others that Harvard University was creating barriers to entry into their Board of Overseers. Harvard now finds itself in yet another corruption scandal, and Elise will continue to hold all involved accountable. Read Elise’s full statement below –

"The very public fall of Harvard continues in disgrace as it has recently come to my attention that Harvard is now inappropriately interfering with the election of the Board of Overseers to block candidates who are not self-selected by the current failed Harvard leadership.

After multiple candidates stepped up to run to save Harvard from its current failed, morally bankrupt leadership, Harvard is not only arbitrarily moving the goalposts of the Board of Overseers election process, it is suppressing the vote by adding in unprecedented complex roadblocks to limit participation - all of this happening with 0% transparency behind closed doors in hopes that the public won't take notice.

If all of this sounds familiar, it's because it is: the desperate radical Far Left rigs the system when they know they can't win.

If Harvard thinks their stonewalling of the Congressional investigation will protect them from accountability, they are mistaken. On the contrary, the list of egregious acts by Harvard meriting Congressional oversight keeps growing and growing. They continue to dig deeper into the morass of moral bankruptcy shredding academic integrity all while maintaining an arrogant sense of entitlement. The reality is that Higher Education institutions like Harvard rely on billions of dollars of US taxpayer funds. It is our responsibility on behalf of the American people that we have full transparency in the governance structure (in this case a failed one) of these institutions and deliver accountability and much needed reforms."

President Trump Continues to Hold Historic Lead

The polling is clear – President Trump will save America in 2024! Recent polls show President Trump continues to hold a commanding lead over Joe Biden ahead of the 2024 General Election. Most notably, President Trump is polling better than ANY Republican Presidential Candidate in over 20 years! Hardworking Americans are making it clear that Joe Biden’s Presidency has been catastrophic, and they are ready to return President Trump to the White House in November!

PASSED: Elise Votes to Pass the Tax Relief for American Families and Workers Act

Late Wednesday night, Elise and a bipartisan group of Representatives voted to pass the Tax Relief for American Families and Workers Act to support American families, cut wasteful spending, and deliver pro-growth policy to America’s working communities. Elise stated –

“Today, I proudly voted to extend President Trump’s pro-growth policies in a critical tax reform package that delivers conservative wins for working communities in Upstate New York, the North Country, and nationwide. This bipartisan legislation bolsters the financial security of working families, boosts American competitiveness, and cuts wasteful spending by eliminating COVID-era fraud-ridden programs and saving the American taxpayer billions of dollars. I applaud Chairman Jason Smith for getting this package across the finish line and delivering results for the American taxpayer.”
