| Welcome back to Team Elise's weekly newsletter! We send a weekly note to Elise's top supporters to update you on what she's working on in Capitol Hill and across NY-21! | | Here are a few top Team Elise updates and stories we have been tracking for the past week! | | Team Elise Victories on Primary Day! | | Congratulations to Inna Vernikov, Frank Morano, and Edward Wehrheim on their impressive New York Primary VICTORIES! | | These strong, commonsense leaders are exactly what New York needs: | | Chairwoman Stefanik is proud to support these dedicated Republicans as we work together to Save New York! | | Chairwoman Stefanik’s Statement on Democrat NYC Mayor Primary | | New York GOP Chairman Ed Cox stated – | | “Zohran Mamdani’s victory in the Democratic primary is the most alarming signal yet of how far left and out of touch the Democratic Party has become. Mamdani is a self-described socialist who has supported the defunding of our police, the boycotting of our allies and policies that failed in the Soviet Union.
With Mamdani as the Democratic nominee, anti-Semitism is now dangerously close to having official status in City Hall. Mamdani must be defeated in November – and Republican Curtis Sliwa is the only candidate who will fight for safe streets and economic opportunity for all New Yorkers.” | | Chairwoman Stefanik Praises President Trump’s Ceasefire Deal | | “Our great nation and the world is a better and safer place because of President Trump’s bold leadership. In his first administration, he brokered the historic Abraham Accords. In this one, he took decisive action to eliminate Iran’s nuclear program to bring peace. President Trump told our allies and adversaries we would always put America First and achieve peace through strength. I’m grateful our brave men and women abroad are safe. Promises made, promises kept by our historic Commander in Chief.” | | Elise Secures $4.2 Million for Upstate & North County Projects | | Elise delivered $4.2 million in funding through the Northern Border Regional Commission that will bring major investments in rural healthcare, water infrastructure, and workforce housing across NY-21 towns like Lake Placid, Whitehall, Waddington, Plattsburgh, and Webb. | | These resources will modernize public health services, build new housing, and support cultural and municipal development for local priorities to strengthen economic opportunity via community development and infrastructure builds. | | Elise’s work in Congress ensures that New York and the North Country communities aren’t left behind, but they're empowered to thrive! | | “I’m proud to announce that I helped secure over $4.2 million in funding to complete important projects via NBRC, which will spur economic growth and community development throughout our Upstate and North Country communities.
Increasing investment into our communities remains one of my top priorities as a member of Congress. I look forward to continuing to strengthen NBRC’s initiatives to enhance rural healthcare and encourage job creation across NY-21.” | | Executive Director of the Lake Champlain-Lake George Regional Planning Board Beth Gilles stated – | | “We’re thrilled to continue our focus on workforce housing development in the Adirondack Park with support from the Northern Border Regional Commission.
Many communities in the Park are ready for housing solutions, and this grant will help us prepare shovel-ready sites to meet that need. We’re grateful to the Congresswoman for her ongoing support of our work and of year-round residents in the Adirondacks." | | Plattsburgh Mayor Wendell Hughes stated – | | “It is with great appreciation that the City of Plattsburgh has been awarded this grant from the Northern Border Regional Commission for our wastewater system feasibility study for the Rugar Street corridor. This is not just important for the City of Plattsburgh’s future growth but for our region as a whole. We are grateful for Congresswoman Stefanik’s efforts on behalf of the City of Plattsburgh.” | | Elise’s Bill to Improve Veterans Pension Benefits Payments Advances in Committee | | Elise continues to deliver real results for our veterans, advancing critical legislation to ensure they and their families receive the pension benefits they've earned. Her bill, the Ernest Peltz Accrued Veterans Benefits Act, is a commonsense fix to bureaucratic failure, and will put our veterans first by improving the process in which they receive these benefits.
While others simply posture on veterans issues, Elise is working tirelessly to protect those who protect us! | | “The House Committee on Veterans' Affairs held a hearing on my legislation, the Ernest Peltz Accrued Veterans Benefits Act, which would improve the process of issuing pension benefits payments administered by the Department of Veterans Affairs.
For years, I worked with the Peltz family, our great veterans service organizations, the VA, and Members of this Committee on crafting this legislation to ensure that no other family has to endure what the Peltz family went through when WWII veteran and hero Ernest Peltz passed away." | | Curtis Sliwa & Sid Rosenberg Recognize Elise’s Efforts to SAVE NEW YORK! | | Curtis Sliwa and Sid Rosenberg, two of the loudest and most unapologetic NEW YORK voices for LAW & ORDER, praised Elise this week for her unwavering leadership and tireless work to Save New York.
On the airwaves and in the streets, they recognized Elise as a fearless fighter who’s standing up to the radical left and delivering real results for New Yorkers fed up with crime, corruption, and chaos.
Curtis and Sid applauded Elise for backing Republican candidates statewide and being a true champion of common-sense values as she leads the fight to Save New York! | | “Thank you to the great Sid Rosenberg and Curtis Sliwa, the endorsed Republican running for New York City Mayor for recognizing our efforts to support NY Republicans and Save New York!” | | Listen to the 77 WABC clip here. | - WASHINGTON EXAMINER: Stefanik mounts ‘shadow campaign’ for New York governor
