Dad, Husband, Farmer, Democrat running to replace Congresswoman Stefanik in NY’s 21st District.
Last year’s special election didn’t happen, but the conversations, momentum, and commitment were real and we kept building.
Now, a new year brings a new race for Congress. I’m ready to fight for a future that works for everyone. Together we are going to win. Wishing you a Happy New Year! 🎉

Great job to Ed Jasewicz and the Fulton County Board for hosting such a wonderful holiday party! It was great to see so many friends and neighbors come together to celebrate the season. Thank you for making it such a memorable evening.

The momentum that we have built for this campaign is more important than ever.
We all know that DC has been broken for far too long, and it is time for a change. We have the chance to make history by sending a North Country farmer to Congress, but only with your support.

Putting the finishing touches on the wagon for tonight’s Lights on the River hay wagon rides in Lisbon! Bring the kids, enjoy the festive lights along the river, and help raise money for our local food pantries. It’s a wonderful way to kick off the evening at Lisbon Beach.

My heart goes out to the family of Rob and Michele Reiner. We deserve better than Washington politicians sowing division. This type of cruelty has no place in our country. We need to hold our public servants to a higher standard. It’s time to bring civility back!
God bless you all

As Hanukkah begins, we join Jewish families in celebrating the Festival of Lights and its enduring message of faith, perseverance, and hope. May these eight nights bring warmth, reflection, and peace to all who observe.

Right now millions are on the verge of losing access to healthcare, including thousands in our north country. Congress has no plan. We need leaders who know what it’s like to have to work for a living serving us. In Congress, I will protect your healthcare. Full stop.

Today’s news that the Ogdensburg hospital is in danger of closing is a perfect example of how Washington and Albany are broken. They don’t know how badly we need healthcare, and they continue to play partisan games.

I am honored to earn the endorsement of the Brotherhood of Locomotive Engineers and Trainmen. Our rail workers keep the North Country and America moving. I’m honored to stand with them as we fight for safer tracks, stronger unions, and good-paying jobs right here at home.
