Issues

America is a nation founded on a framework of values centered around personal liberty, freedom, and community. Under the Biden administration, many of our timeless American values came under attack, as politicians and bureaucrats in Washington spent valuable time and resources on programs and initiatives that undermine the value of life, fail to protect our children, and push a dangerous woke agenda. Luckily, under President Trump’s bold leadership, we are restoring commonsense American values to our government and our nation.

America’s veterans have risked their lives to defend our great nation and protect our freedoms. As the mother of a Marine officer, I understand the sacrifices that are made by our service members and their families each day. That’s why one of my top priorities in Congress is to make sure every American service member and veteran is well-equipped and adequately supported, whether they are actively serving our country or transitioning back to civilian life.

Agriculture is the backbone of our regional economy. The 24th Congressional District is the largest agricultural district in the Northeast, the 5^th largest dairy district in the U.S., and includes Wayne County as the 3^rd largest apple-producing county in the U.S. and the largest outside Washington State.

As the mother of a Marine officer and member of the House Permanent Select Committee on Intelligence, I understand the importance of American leadership on the global stage. I strongly support President Trump’s foreign policy of peace through strength which makes America stronger. 

Since I was first elected to public office, my mission has always been to put New York taxpayers first. For America to remain competitive and free, we need a straightforward tax code that rewards work, encourages entrepreneurship, and creates an environment where families and businesses can thrive.

Under the leadership of President Donald Trump and Border Czar Tom Homan, U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP), U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE), and various federal and state agencies, have taken immediate action to stop illegal immigration, drug and weapons trafficking, and the influx of criminal gangs in our communities. Through this coordination, federal agencies have created a deterrent effect, reducing illegal entries to historic lows.

While President Trump has begun enacting policies to unleash American energy dominance, New York families are still grappling with sky-high energy prices that were driven by radical, misguided policies led by Governor Hochul and Albany Democrats, as well as the previous Administration.
