ICE's plan for a detention facility in the Hudson Valley is un-American & against everything we stand for.

Perfect end to a very special Independence Day.
Every year, I love joining the cadets at West Point to watch the fireworks with Rebecca & the boys, and celebrate the great American experiment 🇺🇸🌦️

Wishing everyone across the Hudson Valley a Happy Fourth of July!
Today, we celebrate 250 years of our nation’s founding principles of freedom & democracy, and honor everyone fighting to these ideals, from 1776 through today.

From the very beginning, the Trump Administration has refused to be transparent with our community.
We’ve made it clear: we strongly reject a mass detention center or any ICE facility in the Hudson Valley.
I’m urgently seeking answers to figure out exactly what their plan is.

Because if the Administration thinks they can quietly build this without the force of our community fighting back, they’ve got another thing coming.
When they tried to build a facility in Chester, we rallied with one voice to stop it.

Together, the Hudson Valley is standing on the side of justice, accountability, and humanity – and whether in Newburgh, Chester, or anywhere else, we won’t stand idly by while ICE moves into our community, terrorizes our neighbors, and makes us all less safe.

Our community was on the forefront of American independence 250 years ago, and that revolutionary spirit lives on today – especially in our next generation of leaders.
That’s why I’m so excited to launch my America 250 Essay Contest, and hear from the exceptional young people of the Hudson Valley.

The Hudson Valley has a profoundly rich history of Patriotism and service to this great country.
As we celebrate the first 250 years of American history, we must also look forward to the next 250.
This Independence Day, it’s important to remember what unites us: our kids, our community, and the country that we love.

Happy #NationalPostalWorkersDay NY-18!
Thank you to all of the hardworking public servants who keep our community connected.
As a proud @Labor_Caucus member, I’ll always fight for Hudson Valley postal workers.

Today, alongside our West Park community, I’m launching a petition to save the post office.
We cannot allow USPS to rip the rug out from under our neighbors – that’s why we’re fighting back.

Over the past week, I’ve heard from seniors concerned about where to pick up their medication, small business owners who rely on the shipping services, and most of all from neighbors, worried about losing this center of their community.

USPS owes the Hudson Valley better, and our community is ready to rally in force to save the West Park post office and ensure our neighbors don’t get left behind.

This should have been a moment for all of us to work together and keep our kids safe online. Instead, Big Tech and their army of lobbyists hijacked and watered down what was previously a common-sense bipartisan bill.
I voted no on behalf of parents across our community, myself included, who refuse to cave to half measures when it comes to our kids. Without a duty of care provision, the KIDS Act gives Big Tech a free pass to keep putting profits over the safety of our kids.
We need real reform that holds powerful social media companies accountable for their actions, and I'll keep fighting until we pass it.

For years we’ve been fighting hard to ensure clean, safe drinking water is available in every Hudson Valley community, including those around Stewart Air National Guard Base.
But now, inexplicably, Hegseth’s DoD is doing the opposite, blowing up decades of bipartisan progress.

Every American – especially our kids – deserves to have clean drinking water.
I’m fighting hard at every level to deliver the support and resources our communities need – including in this year’s NDAA.
But we’re still facing a public health crisis in the Hudson Valley, and the last thing we need is the progress we’ve made rolled back.

I’ll work with anyone to hold polluters accountable and make sure all our families have access to clean water – and I’ll fight like hell against anyone who stands in our way.
