| 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! | | The One Big Beautiful Bill Passes! | | “On this Independence Day, join me in celebrating our greatest treasure as Americans: the gift of life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness.
As we reflect on the countless lives sacrificed in the pursuit of liberty from tyranny from the American Revolutionary War battles that took place in Upstate New York and the North Country to the brave men and women stationed at Fort Drum today, let us vow never to take our freedom for granted. With freedom comes great responsibility.
Our courageous Founding Fathers set a powerful example that through the best of times and the most challenging times, we must fearlessly continue to fight for America’s prosperity and safeguard the American Dream for future generations.
God Bless you and God Bless the United States of America. Happy Independence Day!” | | Elise Campaigns in Erie County NY! | | “PACKED house in Erie County with my colleague and friend
Congressman Nick Langworthy to support him
as we work together to FIRE KATHY HOCHUL in 2026!
We will WIN her home county Erie County on our way to SAVE NEW YORK!" | | Rep. Nick Langworthy stated – | | “This truly could be our last shot at saving New York — but it’s worth fighting for. This is a critical county to win statewide. If Elise moves forward with this campaign, this will be ground zero.” | | Chairwoman Stefanik Campaigns in Dutchess County! | | The Dutchess County GOP stated – | | “A tremendous turnout tonight with over 300 attendees at our DCGOP Fundraiser, Celebrating Common Sense at The Grandview. Thank you to our Guest Speakers, Congressman Mike Lawler, Congresswoman Elise Stefanik and NYSGOP Chairman Ed Cox for joining us. We appreciate the overwhelming support from everyone and all those who assisted in making this event such a great success.” | | Elise Introduces Legislation to Block Terrorists and Criminals from Parole Permitted Under Far Left Policy | | “The Worst Governor in America Kathy Hochul embraced and fully supported Joe Biden’s catastrophic open border policies. She has put all New Yorkers at risk by prioritizing illegals first and New Yorkers LAST with her sanctuary state policies.
I am announcing I am co-leading the SAFER at the Border Act with Congressman Nick Langworthy to keep dangerous criminal illegals from terrorizing New York and our nation’s streets. The legislation closes loopholes that were exploited by Kathy Hochul’s failed policies and Joe Biden’s reckless abuse of immigration parole.
Terrorists, transnational criminals, and dangerous foreign nationals invaded our sovereign nation under the corrupt and failed leadership of Kathy Hochul. We must put law-abiding New Yorkers first and secure our borders.” | | Congressman Nick Langworthy stated – | | “My constituents are fed up with the flood of murderers, terrorists, and dangerous individuals that poured into our communities across New York State— all because of the reckless, failed open-border policies of the Biden administration. A nation without secure borders is a nation in decline, and it’s time we take bold, decisive action to reverse the chaos of the last four years.” | | Elise Exposes Columbia’s Failure to Protect Jewish Students | | This week, Elise and Education & Workforce Committee Chairman Tim Walberg (R-MI) sent a letter to Columbia University Acting President Claire Shipman exposing the university for failing to protect Jewish students from antisemitic harassment, requesting clarification on a variety of concerning text and emails sent by Acting President Shipman, and addressing Columbia’s potential violations of Title VI of the Civil Rights Act.
In the letter, Stefanik and Walberg raised grave concerns about several of Shipman's emails and text messages discovered in Columbia’s disclosures that clearly attempt to diminish and trivialize the pervasive culture of antisemitism on Columbia’s campus, raising questions about Columbia's compliance with Title VI. | | Elise & Rep. Tim Walberg stated – | | "The Committee on Education and Workforce is continuing to investigate antisemitism at Columbia University, including whether there was or is a hostile environment against Jewish students on Columbia’s campus and whether the university is fulfilling its obligation under Title VI of the Civil Rights Act of 1964 (Title VI) to end any harassment, eliminate any hostile environment and its effects, and prevent any harassment from recurring.
As antisemitism continues to rise across the United States, it is critical that our institutions of higher education have leaders who firmly understand and carry out their obligation to protect Jewish students. The Committee is therefore seeking clarity regarding several messages you sent that appear to downplay and even mock the pervasive culture of antisemitism on Columbia’s campus. Obtaining clarity on these statements will aid the Committee in considering whether potential legislative changes, including legislation that specifically creates further accountability for campus leaders, are needed.” |  | | WATCH: Hochul Puts Illegals First & New Yorkers Last | - CNY CENTRAL: Rep.
