Welcome back to Team Elise's weekly newsletter! We send a weekly note to Elise's top supporters to update you on what she's working on in Capitol Hill and across NY-21! | Here are a few top Team Elise updates and stories we have been tracking for the past week! | LATEST INDEPENDENT POLL: Elise is Closing the Gap on Kathy Hochul, The Worst Governor in America! | Team Elise Executive Director Alex DeGrasse stated – | “The latest Siena poll is catastrophic for Kathy Hochul as she is losing independent voters to Elise Stefanik, is below 50% on the ballot, and only 35% of voters want to re-elect Kathy Hochul as voters are increasingly looking to Elise Stefanik to deliver new leadership.
Chairwoman Elise Stefanik will continue to focus on providing results such as delivering the largest middle class tax cut in New York history. She will repeal Kathy Hochul’s failed bail reform and dangerous sanctuary cities policies and cut taxes for New Yorkers.” | READ the full press release on EliseForCongress.com here | WATCH OUR AD: Hochulmander The Hypocrite | WATCH our full ad on Rumble here | WATCH the full Hannity interview on Rumble | Elise Calls for Kathy Hochul to Come Clean on Prison Strikes | “Kathy Hochul has turned her back on law enforcement officers again and again especially our hardworking correctional officers. In a scathing report that blasts the Worst Governor in America for putting the rights of violent inmates over law enforcement, the union representing Correction Officers stated they warned Kathy Hochul before their strike that prisons were a dangerous powder keg, a strike was imminent, and that lives of officers were at risk.
Hochul did nothing. The Worst Governor in America took no action and instead chose to destroy the lives of correctional officers and their families.
Strikes commenced across the state, wreaking havoc in prisons. Hochul callously fired an estimated 2,000 Correction Officers throughout the three week strike she knew was going to happen.
The lives of thousands of New York National Guard reservists were put at risk when Hochul forced them to guard inmates with no training. The State pegged staggering strike costs at $100 million per month. Prison strikes could have been avoided. Kathy Hochul ignored the warning signs out of incompetence or indifference to law enforcement.
The Worst Governor in America must be held accountable. Kathy Hochul must immediately address NYSCOBA’s report: what did she know, when did she know it, and why did she refuse to act?” |  |  | READ the full press release on EliseForCongress.com here | READ the New York Post exclusive here | Elise on the Air with David Bellavia on WBEN Buffalo! | “You ask any New Yorker: Republican, Democrat, Independent. They will all tell you, New York has become less safe because of the single-party, Democrat rule that is double and tripling down on failed bail reform. This is a policy that prioritizes criminals over law-abiding New Yorkers. You talk to anyone in law enforcement, our county sheriffs, our troopers, our DAs. We're dealing with repeat offenders over and over again, and these are violent criminals who are being let into the streets.
I've been the leader at the national level in terms of raising awareness nationally of the security challenges on our northern border. We need more Border Patrol. We need more personnel and resources on our northern border. And did you know that if you look at the individuals on the terrorist watch list, the number one sector where those illegal crossings cross is in the Swanton Sector, which is the region, as you know, from Buffalo to my District. So this is a crisis, and yet Kathy Hochul is prioritizing illegals.
We are going to step in and fix this crime crisis for her because she has failed at this job. It's why Democrat polling continues to be in free fall. It's why she is known as the worst governor in America.” | “Elise Stefanik is closing on Kathy Hochul. She's a congresswoman in the New York 21st District. She knows the issues. She's super aggressive on these issues. She's got her facts, she's unafraid, she's unapologetic, and she's absolutely a barracuda in a debate. And this is something Kathy Hochul has not had before.” | LISTEN to the full interview on YouTube | The Tables Are Finally Turning on Adam Schiff | WATCH Elise’s 2019 Flashback Schiff video on Facebook here | Elise’s Statement Supporting the Trump Administration’s Designation of the Muslim Brotherhood as a Terrorist Organization | SEE more on Truth Social here | - NEW YORK POST: NY Rep.
