Elise Speaks to Packed Crowd at RJC Summit in Nevada

On Thursday, Elise delivered a keynote address at the Republican Jewish Coalition Summit in Las Vegas, Nevada.

Elise stated –

"The work of the RJC is more important than ever and I’m honored to be with you today in Las Vegas.

We come together at an extraordinarily challenging time where the world desperately needs sterling, clear, and morally strong American leadership.”

Elise Calls for Investigation into Hochul Administration Hiring Communist Chinese Spy

On Tuesday, following the arrest of a former top aide to New York Governor Kathy Hochul for acting as a secret agent of the Chinese government, Elise called for an immediate investigation into why both Hochul and disgraced former Governor Andrew Cuomo allowed a Communist Chinese spy to work in the highest levels of New York’s government.

Elise stated –

“Failed Far Left Democrat Kathy Hochul allowed Communist Chinese spy Linda Sun unfettered access to the highest levels of New York State government. From allowing Chinese police stations to maintaining a sister city partnership between NYC and Beijing, this is another example of New York Democrats facilitating the influence campaign of Communist China. I am calling for a complete investigation into Kathy Hochul and her administration so that hardworking New York taxpayers receive the transparency we deserve.”

Elise Endorsed by 81 Elected Officials in Washington Co. including Republicans, Conservatives, and Independents

On Tuesday, 81 Washington County elected officials including Republicans, Conservatives, and Independents endorsed Elise for re-election to Congress. This is the highest number of endorsements the Congresswoman has ever received from local elected officials in Washington County.

Robert Henke, Chairman of the County Board of Supervisors and Argyle Town Supervisor, stated –

“After a 32 year career as a police officer and as Chairman of the Board in a county with a very active, accredited Sheriff’s Department, my first reason for strongly supporting the re-election of Elise Stefanik is her unwavering advocacy on behalf of police officers across the country. In addition, the fact that Congresswoman Stefanik’s advocacy includes not just words but actual actions is a primary reason for support. For example, she did not simply complain about the Biden-Harris Administration’s border policy, but she followed up with support and passage of legislation condemning their actions. Elise Stefanik will always have my endorsement and support because she actually takes action!”

Elise stated –

“I’m grateful to earn the support and endorsement of these hardworking local elected officials and community leaders of Washington County. This is the highest number of local elected officials in Washington County to ever endorse me, and I am grateful for their support. It is an honor to continue to deliver results to Washington County by securing $2 million for a sanitary sewer improvement project in the Village of Whitehall, by passing the Battlefield Protection Program Enhancement Act to preserve Fort Ann, and by leading the charge against Kathy Hochul’s catastrophic plan to close the Great Meadow Correctional Facility. I will continue to represent and fight for Washington County at the highest levels in our nation’s Capitol.”

Elise stated –

It has been an honor to work with each of them on bipartisan issues to help North Country families,” Congresswoman Stefanik said. “I continue to work with Republicans, Democrats, and Independents to deliver real results for my constituents. I am overwhelmed by the outpouring of support for my re-election campaign, and look forward to our landslide victory in St. Lawrence county once again!”
