John,

With less than 100 days until Election Day, I want to be direct with you about the choice in this race.

I am Jackie Auringer. I grew up in the Hudson Valley. My parents dedicated their lives to this community as a teacher and a local business owner. I believe in lower taxes, secure borders, voter ID, and a government that trusts families to make their own decisions. I would have voted yes on stopping congressional stock trades. I will always stand with Israel. And I will never fold under pressure from the radical left.

Pat Ryan grew up here too. But somewhere along the way he made a different choice. He accepted the endorsement of the Working Families Party, the same party driving the radical socialist wave across New York. He voted no on voter ID. He voted to keep trading stocks while sitting on committees that affect his own investments. He caved on Israel the moment the DSA turned up the heat.

Same district. Very different choices.
