It's no surprise that Elon Musk has spent millions to keep his puppet Mike Lawler in office. Musk is the operator of the largest data center in the world, and Mike cast the deciding vote to give data center operators $80 billion in tax breaks,

while voting to ban states from regulating data centers and AI operations. Mike is serving his corporate, special interest, and trillionaire backers. As your member of Congress, I will serve you.

Nothing beats fall in the Hudson Valley, and the Nanuet Fall Festival did not disappoint! Thank you to the Nanuet Chamber of Commerce and all the organizations involved for making this event possible. Great to see so many members of the community out there enjoying the beautiful weather.

Huge thank you to the Westchester Black Women's Political Caucus for hosting such a great forum this past weekend in Peekskill. Fulfilling this country's true promise means striving for a future where every person is treated with dignity and respect and offered an equal shot at opportunity.

That is the America I fought for overseas, and that is the future I will continue to fight for in Washington by rooting out corruption, lowering costs, and making our government work for working people again.

I grew up in a home here in the Hudson Valley where every dollar counted. I’m running because politicians in Washington have left families like mine behind. Hardworking people should not be struggling this much to get by. In Congress, I’ll fight to lower taxes and bring down the cost of living —

Kicked off our first GOTV weekend in Chappaqua! Shout out to everyone who got up bright and early before polls opened to fight for our democracy and for our future. We have an incredible slate of candidates who are going to bring it home on November 3rd.

Reminiscing on yesterday’s INCREDIBLE rally with Hakeem Jeffries! Thank you to the hundreds of Hudson Valley voters who came out to kick off Early Voting with us in Peekskill.

It’s time to take back the majority and make Hakeem Jeffries Speaker so we can root out Washington corruption, lower costs, and create the better future we all deserve. T-9 days.

Mike Lawler cast the deciding vote for Trump’s “Big Ugly Bill,” slashing healthcare coverage for nearly half a million New Yorkers and raising costs for hundreds of thousands more.

In Congress, I’ll undo Mike’s harm, fight for a public option to preserve choice and bring down costs, and take on Big Pharma to lower prescription drug prices.

🚨Good morning, NY-17 – POLLS ARE OPEN! Cast your (early) vote for a better, more affordable future through November 1st at any of the Early Voting Centers in your county. Find Early Voting Centers, check your voter registration status, and track your mail-in ballot: voterlookup.elections.ny.gov

Our labor coalition continues to grow! Honored to welcome the hardworking men and women of Bricklayers and Allied Craftworkers Local 1 to #TeamCait. In Congress, I’ll always defend the right to organize and fight to lower costs for working families across the Hudson Valley.

As a 16-year, six-tour Army combat veteran, I know what it’s like to serve our country overseas. That’s why I couldn’t be prouder to have the support of the Democrats Abroad Veterans and Military Families Caucus — in this race.

In 2022, Mike Lawler said: “Before you vote tomorrow, fill up your tank and go grocery shopping — it will inform your decision.” So we took him up on that. Before early voting starts tomorrow, try it. Then tell me if the system’s working for you. It shouldn’t be this hard. You deserve better.

My thoughts are with Patricia, Lea, Hiro, and all those who knew and loved Koran Irvine. A member of our Rockland community, Koran will be remembered as an incredible husband, father, and friend. He will be deeply missed by so many.

Our government is not working for working people anymore. I’m running for Congress to fix that. I won’t let anyone — including my own party — stand in the way of lowering costs and making life better for Hudson Valley families.

Always a great time when I’m spending it with @nysut.bsky.social! Thank you to everyone who came out in Mt Kisco last night. As a graduate of Hudson Valley public schools, I vow to be a champion for our public education system. All of our kids deserve a world-class education.

I’m proud to have the support of PSC CUNY in this race, as our labor coalition continues to grow. Our faculty and educational staff play such a crucial role in our communities, and we must ensure that they have the support they need to put their students on a path to success.

Couldn’t have asked for a better way to spend my night than surrounded by so many local leaders, community members, and talented performers who came together yesterday to Rock(land) the Vote! Thank you so much to the Red Barn Cidery for hosting such an incredible event.

Elon Musk just poured half a million dollars into this race to try to keep his puppet Mike Lawler in office, just like he did back in 2024. But the Hudson Valley can’t be bought. Mike Lawler has sold out to his trillionaire and corporate backers at our expense —

Reunited and it feels so good! Huge shoutout to the incredibly talented Just Us band for helping us Rock(land) the Vote last night following our fun at the Suffern Street Fair over the weekend. We even got our dance crew back together!

It’s no secret I’m better in the weight room than on the dance floor, but with these amazing folks, I’ll have fun anywhere! Here’s to leaving it all out on the floor over these next two weeks as we create the better future we all deserve.

Our Jewish neighbors deserve to feel safe and welcome in their communities. But with antisemitism on the rise on both sides of the political spectrum here in New York and across the country, too many do not. It’s up to all of us — especially our leaders in government — to fix that.

In Congress, I will always be a fierce supporter of our Jewish community. That means speaking out and fighting back against antisemitism in all its forms, and ensuring America’s strong support for Israel and the Israeli people.

Incredible visit to Senior Moments Care and their newly opened Geriatric Center of Excellence in Somers yesterday. It was an incredibly important and informative discussion with providers and caregivers to understand where our healthcare system is failing our seniors and those responsible for their

care. From Medicare’s confusing drug pricing to cuts people are facing in at-home care providers, there are so many little things getting in the way for the many families going through this hard chapter.

As your member of Congress, I promise to protect Medicare and Social Security, reform the inefficiencies in our system, and work to bring down costs across the Hudson Valley — so that our seniors can grow old with dignity and the families that care for them can navigate this system more easily.

Today marks the 45th anniversary of the tragic 1981 Brink’s robbery and shootings that forever changed Rockland. It was an honor to join the community to honor Nyack Police Sergeant Edward O’Grady, Officer Waverly “Chipper” Brown,

In Congress, I will always fight to ensure that our law enforcement officers have the resources and support they need to keep our communities and themselves safe.

There’s a rule in the airborne world: the most senior paratrooper goes first. Because courage is contagious. That’s the spirit of this campaign: people united by the simple belief that this moment demands leaders who will put country over party and have the courage to do what’s right —

especially when it’s hard. I’m in this fight for the American people, just as I have been throughout my life protecting our country. I will never forget who I serve.
