We exhausted every option within our Republican majority conference, and now it’s time to find a bipartisan compromise to the ACA tax premiums. It’s time we start working through the legislative process.

I’m proud that my bill, the Antisemitism Awareness Act, just passed the House of Representatives 320 to 91. This bill has broad, bipartisan support and will begin the process of cracking down on the antisemitism we’ve seen run rampant on college campuses across America.

New Yorkers overwhelmingly voted to take politics out of the redistricting process by creating an independent commission, yet Albany Democrats continue looking for ways to manipulate congressional maps for their own political advantage. I've been consistent on this issue regardless of which party is in power - I opposed partisan gerrymandering in Florida and Texas, and I oppose it in New York. Voters should choose their representatives, not the other way around. The integrity of our elections depends on public trust, and that trust is eroded when politicians try to rig the system to protect their own power.

We need a legal path forward that allows individuals with U.S.-citizen children and grandchildren to come out of the shadows, pay back taxes and a fine, and contribute—without receiving government benefits. This is not a pathway to citizenship under any circumstances for anyone who broke our laws by coming to the United States. Our immigration system has been broken for 40 years, and doing nothing is not an option.

This visit marked the first time in nearly 50 years that a sitting president visited Rockland County since President Gerald R. Ford’s stop in New City during the 1976 presidential campaign. I want to thank President Trump for honoring Welles Crowther with the Presidential Medal of Freedom, recognizing his extraordinary courage, selflessness, and enduring legacy. It was also incredibly moving to see Yorktown’s Sheridan Gorman recognized, with her mother’s heartfelt remarks leaving not a dry eye in the room. Thank you to everyone who worked tirelessly behind the scenes to help make this historic event possible and such a success for Rockland County and the Hudson Valley.

Unlike some of my colleagues who are recycling the same talking points, I’m willing to work across the aisle to avoid a shutdown. I’d encourage Leader Jeffries and the Democrats trying to politicize a shutdown to join me on Problem Solvers’ bipartisan short-term funding bill.

At a time when Jews are increasingly facing attacks for exercising their free speech and are being threatened in their places of worship, the Mayor of New York City is choosing not to represent all of his constituents by refusing to attend the annual Israel parade. That is shameful. I will be there marching, and I’m proud to stand with Jewish Americans from all across New York.

This morning, I joined Town of Clarkstown Supervisor George Hoehmann, Veterans Angels of Hope, and volunteers from the Clarkstown Hockey Team to distribute free holiday dinner bags to military and veteran families. We distributed 160 dinner bags that included ham, potatoes, vegetables, and Girl Scout cookies. Thank you to all our veterans and military families, and happy holidays to all!

This week, the Syria Sanctions Accountability Act was marked up and passed the Financial Services Committee with bipartisan support. I introduced this bill to modernize the existing sanctions regime on Syria. As the Trump Administration reviews sanctions policy, we must ensure they have the tools needed.

We have seen a rise in antisemitism across the political spectrum, especially on social media, much of it amplified by voices like Hasan Piker and Candace Owens, who have engaged in antisemitic tropes, and we are pushing back against it. As elected officials, regardless of party, we have a responsibility to call it out and stand against it.

A powerful moment in Rockland County today as President Trump announced that Welles Crowther will be posthumously awarded the Presidential Medal of Freedom. Welles, “The Man in the Red Bandana,” embodied courage, sacrifice, service to others, and the definition of a hero. He saved over a dozen lives on September 11, 2001. The Hudson Valley will always be proud to call him one of our own.

I just signed a discharge petition to advance forward bipartisan legislation to extend the ACA enhanced premium tax credits for 2-years, inclusive of significant insurance reforms, income limits, PBA reforms, and HSA expansion. This is the only bill that has a chance of becoming law. It’s time for everyone to put party aside and get this done. This discharge petition already has enough Republicans signed on, if every single Democrat would join us — and the vote could happen immediately. Let’s get it done.

The Palestinian Authority pays terrorists who murder innocent people. It’s disgusting - and it has to stop. That’s why I’m leading a bipartisan bill to hold them accountable.

When we return in January, we will vote on a three-year expansion of ACA tax subsidies. Doing nothing is not an option. I am committed to working across the aisle to make subsides available for the American people.

Americans were rightly frustrated during the Biden years, when open borders allowed more than 10.5 million migrants to enter the country illegally. Over the last nine months, illegal crossings have effectively dropped to net zero. Most Americans agree criminal aliens should be deported. At the same time, if someone has lived here for years, is working, has no criminal record, and has American citizen children or grandchildren, there should be a lawful way forward. This is not amnesty and not a pathway to citizenship.

Let there be no doubt, we will defend our ally Israel, our other partners in the region, and our military and diplomatic personnel. Iran should understand that there will be grave consequences for any actions they take in response to this justified strike on their nuclear facilities.

I stand with the Iranian people as they seek to reclaim their country after 45 years of brutal tyranny. Their courage in the face of oppression is inspiring, and the United States must continue to support their fight for freedom.

The oppressor of the Palestinian people is Hamas. The world is a far better place today than it was before October 7th. That wouldn’t have happened if Israel hadn’t conducted the war the way they did.

Pro-Hamas agitators are here at the US Capitol again, protesting tomorrow’s address by Prime Minister Netanyahu to a joint session of Congress. One chant you won’t hear them say? “Bring Them Home.”

Let’s not mince words here - if you’re chanting “from the River to the Sea” or “Globalize the Intifada” on college campuses, you’re parroting Hamas talking points, you’re intimidating Jewish students, and you should face the consequences.
