Mondaire Jones

NY-17

Last updated September 9th, 2024 at 4:37pm GMT.

         

Voters in NY-17 will be reminded of Mike’s record as a commonsense problem solver, and his opponent’s record as a far-left radical, do-nothing politician.  

Congressman Lawler’s bipartisan work to stop congestion pricing and to lift the crushing cap on SALT, all while returning tens of millions of federal dollars to the Hudson Valley proves that he is the fighter NY-17 elected him to be.
