a quick recap

Together we can vote out Stefanik and elect Matt Putorti.   FIRST: Stefanik endorsed Carl Paladino after he said that Hitler is “the kind of leader we need today” and “somebody inspirational.” THEN: Stefanik celebrated the Supreme Court’s disgusting decisions to overturn Roe v.…

if she had it her way...

the January 6 committee wouldn’t exist at all.   John, During yesterday’s riveting testimony in front of the January 6 Committee, we learned that, according to Chief of Staff Mark Meadows’ aide, Donald Trump knew his supporters had weapons when he encouraged them to march to the Capitol …

since our last FEC deadline

Stefanik continues to be an embarrassment and threat to our community and our country.   John, In a moment, I will ask you to pitch in $20.22 ahead of Thursday’s final quarterly FEC deadline before the primary. But first, I want to explain to you why it’s so important that we …

ICYMI: Stefanik is celebrating

We will fight.

The right to reproductive healthcare and people’s freedom to make choices about their own bodies must be protected.   John, Today, our worst fears were realized: the Supreme Court overturned Roe v. Wade and struck down the constitutional right to abortion. This is appalling and dangerou…

shallow

Stefanik is power-hungry and cares about her political future more than she does our needs.   John, Elise Stefanik has latched onto the “Big Lie” like her political career depends on it. As the January 6th hearings have progressed, it’s clearer now than ever before why she has: to cheat p…

The madness continues

Today, I am calling on Stefanik to immediately denounce the Big Lie.   Today’s January 6th Committee hearing confirmed what we have long known: that there is no evidence of widespread fraud in the 2020 election, Donald Trump lost, and many people in his orbit told him that. Des…
