Plattsburgh

ceremony for the American headquarters of Medisca, a Canadian company
specializing in pharmaceutical ingredients manufacturing and analytical
testing. Medisca's decision to locate its headquarters in Plattsburgh is a

Elise Rebukes Joe Biden’s Mass Amnesty Executive Order
On Tuesday, Joe Biden announced yet another Executive Order that worsens
America’s immigration crisis. This new order prohibits the deportation of
illegal immigrants who are married to American citizens and provides these
spouses and also their non citizen children with a pathway to permanent
residency.
“Since taking office Joe Biden has taken over 60 executive actions to reverse
President Trump’s secure border policies and implement his failed Far Left
Democrat open borders agenda that has turned every American community into a
border community and threatens our national security.
In the midst of this historic border crisis Biden has decided to issue another
unconstitutional executive order that grants mass amnesty to hundreds of
thousands of illegal immigrants. Biden’s executive order will only worsen the
invasion happening at our Southern Border and force Americans to foot the bill
for Biden’s open border policies.
Americans are demanding that we secure our borders and in order to do that we
must stop incentivizing illegal immigration and return to President Trump’s
successful border security policies.”

Elise Delivers Results for Upstate NY and Fort Drum in the 2025 NDAA
Last Friday, the House of Representatives passed the National Defense
Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2025. Elise fought for and secured several
investments in Upstate New York and the North Country in the bill.
Elise stated –
“As a senior member on the House Armed Services Committee, I am proud to have
crafted and voted to pass the national defense bill for fiscal year 2025 and
secure critical wins for Fort Drum, the 10th Mountain Division, and all of
Upstate New York. This bill includes significant investments in emerging
technology, provides for our military families, and equips our service members
with modern capabilities and platforms as they fight to protect our nation and
deter our adversaries. House Republicans are stepping up where the Biden
Administration has failed to deliver peace through strength and preserve
American values.”

Real Results for NY-21 included in the 2025 NDAA:
* Requires the Department of Defense to construct an East Coast Missile
Defense Site at Fort Drum
* Aligns the 10th Mountain Division’s Alpine Initiative into the Army’s
Arctic Strategy
* Accelerates the development, implementation, and fielding of counter drone
technology
* Authorizes robust funding for the Air Force Research Laboratory in Rome, NY
* Secures millions of dollars to recapitalize the New York Air National
Guard’s 109th Airlift Wing’s LC-130 Skibird planes
* Invests in several technologies developed by NY-21 companies
* Authorizes a 19.5% basic pay increase for junior enlisted service members
* Improves the healthcare and childcare for military families
* Supports military spouses by making it easier for them to find and maintain
employment
Committee on Education and the Workforce Advances Elise’s Bills
Combatting the Lies of Authoritarians in School Systems (CLASS) Act
On Thursday, June 13th, 2024 the House Committee on Education and the
Workforce reported the CLASS Act out of committee and to the full House for a
vote. Elise and Rep. Dave Joyce of Ohio introduced this bill to combat the
infiltration of the Chinese Communist Party in our nation's schools and
universities. This legislation would prevent any school or academic institution
that receives federal funding from entering into a contract with or accepting
funds from agents of the Chinese government or CCP.
Elise stated –
“I am proud to co-lead the CLASS Act as it advances through the Education and
the Workforce Committee to ensure the Chinese Communist Party is not able to
buy influence over our young students with pro-China propaganda in our
classrooms. We must ensure that the next generation of American leaders are not
corrupted by misinformation coming from Communist China.”
Never Again Education Reauthorization and Study Act of 2024
This legislation provides new funding for the United States Holocaust Museum
and contains several provisions to expand and support Holocaust education
programs across the country.
