Last year, Mike Lawler looked you in the eye and said “I will not cut Medicaid.” Then he was the deciding vote for Trump’s “Big Ugly Bill,” enabling the largest Medicaid cut in American history. Mike Lawler simply cannot be trusted. On his watch, nearly half a million New Yorkers have lost healthcare coverage. He will throw you and your family under the bus if it means making Trump and his billionaire backers happy. In Congress, you can count on me to fight for you.

If Mike Lawler doesn’t want to talk about the five data centers built in Rockland County on his watch, then let’s talk about the three MORE currently on the way! Mike can lie all he wants, but the fact remains that he’s the biggest champion of data centers this district has ever seen — because at the end of the day, he’s looking out for his Big Tech backers. After taking hundreds of thousands from them, he voted to give these data center developers $80 billion in tax breaks. Unlike Mike, I support a data center moratorium, and I’ll ensure these companies don't pass utility costs onto families, hurt our environment, or exploit our communities.

Mike Lawler just DEFENDED his friend, domestic abuser Max Miller, and doubled down on refusing to return the $17,000 he’s received from Miller. Worst of all, Mike Lawler blamed Miller’s ex-wife for the horrific abuse she and their two-year-old daughter suffered. Truly disgusting behavior from anyone, let alone a member of Congress. Mike Lawler needs to go.

I have spent my life serving this country — enrolling at West Point after 9/11 and serving 16 years and six tours overseas, in combat zones like Iraq and Afghanistan. I’m incredibly proud of my service, and I will not have it attacked by a guy who never left the comfort of his couch after 9/11. #NY17Debate

When it comes to data centers, Mike Lawler and I could not be more different. I support a data center moratorium; Mike opposes one. I support giving local communities the authority to put guardrails on data centers; Mike voted to ban local control over data centers. As a former lobbyist for the utility monopolies profiting off of data centers, Mike continues to rake in hundreds of thousands from Big Tech. He voted to give them $80 billion in tax breaks for data centers, then voted to make it easier to build them. As your next member of Congress, I’ll ensure utility monopolies don't pass utility costs onto families, hurt our environment, or exploit our communities. #NY17Debate

Mike Lawler votes with Donald Trump 100% of the time, even when it harms you. That includes voting EIGHT times for Trump's tariffs, which are costing Hudson Valley households $4,200 more, and then shrugging that off as “a little bit of short-term pain.” In Congress, I’ll vote to repeal these reckless tariffs to give working families and small businesses the relief they need. #NY17Debate

I’m the proud daughter of a postal worker and a construction worker, and my family has called the Hudson Valley home for four generations. After 9/11, I went to West Point, then served 16 years and six tours overseas — only to come back home and find our country in a worse place than when I left. That’s because politicians, like political operative and lobbyist Mike Lawler, have sold out to billionaires and corporations at the expense of working people. I’m running to rein in Washington corruption so we can lower costs for working families. As your member of Congress, I will always put the Hudson Valley first. #NY17Debate

“I think Mike Lawler cares about Mike Lawler,” NY-17 resident Rob Lowenthal. Couldn’t agree more! Mike Lawler has actively put his own self interest ahead of small businesses here in the Hudson Valley. In Congress, I’ll fight to repeal the reckless tariffs that are making it harder every day for our mom-and-pop shops to stay afloat — tariffs Mike Lawler has voted for eight times. Unlike Mike, who serves himself and the corporations and special interests backing his campaign, I’m in this fight for all of us.

Like all of you, I’m fed up with the corruption in Washington, where career politicians like Mike Lawler put their own self-interest — and the interests of the corporations and billionaires backing them — ahead of the needs of everyday Americans. I’m running to fix that. Donald Trump and MAGA super PACs are pouring tens of millions into this race to keep Mike Lawler in office, but no amount of money can erase the harm he’s done to the Hudson Valley by voting with Trump 100% of the time. With your help, we’ll ensure government works for working people once again. Go to to join our fight for a better, more affordable future.

Former utility lobbyist Mike Lawler is looking out for his Big Tech backers, and the proof is in the five data centers that have opened in Rockland County on his watch, with three more on the way. Mike has raked in hundreds of thousands from Big Tech, then voted to give these data center developers $80 billion in tax breaks and voted to ease restrictions on building data centers. Unlike Mike, I support a data center moratorium. In Congress, I’ll ensure these companies don't pass utility costs onto families, hurt our environment, or exploit our communities.

If you want to know the difference between Mike Lawler and me, just look at how we’ve spent the past 20 years. While I risked my life defending our democracy overseas, he was profiting off of our democracy as a utility lobbyist and political operative back home. It’s no wonder he’s failed to stand up to the corporate interests raising our utility costs. In Congress, I will take on the utility monopolies, corporations, and special interests bankrolling Mike Lawler’s campaign. Unlike Mike, I’m in this fight for you.

I’m the proud daughter of a postal worker and a construction worker, whose family has called this district home for four generations. I know what it’s like to grow up in a family where working hard is necessary to pay the bills. And I also know that working hard is simply not enough to get ahead anymore. That’s why I’m running — to make life easier for families like mine, here in the Hudson Valley and across the country. It’s time that America works for working people once again.

As someone who has deployed six times overseas, I know firsthand what it means to risk my life to defend our country. The way the Trump administration treats our brave service members is disgraceful — from sending them off to fight in reckless wars of choice to forcing them to live in inhumane conditions while they do so. Our servicemembers and their families deserve better. Mike Lawler has voted to continue this reckless war five times, as Americans abroad and at home suffer the consequences.

Mike Lawler loves to talk about SALT, but what he conveniently leaves out is that Trump created the SALT deduction cap in 2017 to punish NY. It was set to expire ENTIRELY at the end of 2025, but Mike voted to make it a permanent tax on working families to fund tax breaks for billionaires. That’s the difference between Mike and me — he pretends he’s looking out for working families, while I’ll actually fight to lower taxes for the middle class and repeal the cap permanently.

When I talk to Hudson Valley voters, I ask them a simple question: Is your life better or worse since Mike Lawler took office? The answer is a resounding “worse.” Mike can lie all he wants, but we can see through it. He doesn’t serve the Hudson Valley; he serves Donald Trump, his corporate backers, and himself.

From West Point to serving as a military police officer to deploying six times overseas, the oath I took was to this country — not to any person or political party. The corruption and partisanship in Washington, including from our own congressman Mike Lawler, does not represent the America I fought to defend. I’m running to ban congressional and White House stock trading, enact term limits, and end corruption — because our politicians should serve us, not corporations and special interests.

When Donald Trump says “jump,” Mike Lawler says “how high?” From voting to slash healthcare for nearly half a million New Yorkers to defending horrific domestic abuser Max Miller, Mike Lawler never fails to fall in line — even at the expense of his own constituents. The Hudson Valley deserves so much better than a career political operative who puts allegiance to party and special interests above all else. That’s why I’m running. I’m in this fight for you.

Mike Lawler has voted FIVE times to continue Donald Trump’s reckless war of choice with Iran. It’s no wonder he’s getting booed by his own constituents. Over the past six months, 18 American service members have lost their lives overseas, while the costs of gas, goods, and groceries skyrocket at home. As your member of Congress, I’ll be a check on this administration’s corruption, not a rubber stamp.

We talk a lot about what we’re fighting against: corruption, partisanship, self-serving politicians. But what’s equally important is what we’re fighting for. As your member of Congress, I will fight for: - A stock trading ban for members of Congress and the White House; - Congressional and Supreme Court term limits; - A public option to preserve choice and bring down the cost of healthcare; - Pathways to the middle class, including capping interest rates on federal student loans, investing in workforce development, and instituting America’s first Public Service Home Loan Program; - And so much more. The Hudson Valley deserves a better future, and I’m going to fight like hell to make it a reality.
