Mike Lawler proudly and smugly lies through his teeth to make it harder for married women, Black and Brown people, and lower income people to vote. He spits in the faces of the people of #NY17, New York generally, and America.
He sold out women & minorities for Trump. He CANNOT remain in the House.

Yesterday, Mike Lawler voted to rip election ballots out of the hands of married women and millions of other American citizens, all based on the categorically debunked lie that there is widespread voter fraud. There just isn't, and what there is comes almost entirely from Republicans.
SHAME!

Tonight Mike Lawler voted to make voting harder for everyone, but especially married women, & there will be thousands, if not hundreds of thousands of people who simply will not be able to vote because of this bill.
Lawler does not serve the people of #NY17. And he just doesn't want women to vote.

Mike Lawler can't create jobs. He has to go.
Bruce Blakeman can't create jobs. He can't be governor of NY.
Peter Oberacker can't create jobs. He can't represent #NY19.
There are so many reasons to vote blue in November. Jobs is a most compelling.

Bruce Blakeman can't even pick a running mate, so how could we trust him to govern the state of New York? And a close look at the men he considered sends chills down one's spine--New York would be a Trumpist police state, with skyrocketing prices and no affordable healthcare.
Churchill: Bruce Blakeman didn't believe in Steve
"The temperature outside today is higher than my interest in the job," Rensselaer County Executive Steve McLaughlin said of New York's lieutenant governor position.

The "real change" Bruce Blakeman offers is to turn New York over to Donald Trump and his regime. ICE raids terrorizing NY communities. People losing healthcare, childcare, jobs. Prices skyrocketing. Voter suppression.

It's good to catch this guy, of course. But Lawler mourns the tragic, inexcusable, loss of 4 Americans in the very same week he voted to deny visas to Afghanis who aided America in the war, leaving exponentially more than 4 people in life-threatening jeopardy.

Well there you have it. Oberacker wants to import Trump to #NY19 -- ICE raids, war on protesters, skyrocketing prices, tax cuts for super rich, unaffordable health insurance, cutting Medicaid/Medicare...
To him, "our values"=rich, straight, White, fake Christian, male interests.

Some people are asking what I want Schumer to do. He should be screaming over medical care and access to facilities. He should be going to detention facilities himself and putting his body on the line, as he did at the border in 2019. He should lean into stories about New Yorkers in detention. [1/4]
