I will always stand with our 9/11 first responders and survivors. That's why @SenGillibrand and I announced legislation to address the funding gap in the @WTCHealthPrgm to ensure those with 9/11-related illnesses don't lose access to care. Learn more⬇️ garbarino.house.gov/media/press-re…

In today's hearing, @RepGarbarino asked @ali_hopper to share some of the most egregious examples of the activities NGOs engaged in to support the Biden-Harris administration's open-borders policies. Here's what she said 👇
Democrats want to ban ICE agents from wearing masks, putting them at risk of retaliation from MS-13 and other violent criminals. They would rather target law enforcement than hold criminals accountable. I will always stand with our officers.
Drone warfare is a growing threat. Today, @HomelandGOP’s Transportation and Maritime Security Subcommittee held a hearing on how we counter it. Watch here →youtube.com/live/ijUHDCovn…
WATCH: @RepGarbarino raises concerns about foreign-manufactured drones and how they could be exploited by our adversaries to carry out cyber-physical attacks against U.S. infrastructure. 👇

I was saddened to learn of the passing of former Congresswoman Carolyn McCarthy. She was a tireless advocate for Long Island whose commitment to public service and lasting contributions will not be forgotten.
Political violence has no place in this country. I was proud to vote for H.Res. 519 condemning the horrific and senseless attacks on Minnesota lawmakers and reaffirming our commitment to preserving a democratic system built not on fear, but on civility and the peaceful exchange…
I applaud President Trump’s decisive leadership in taking out Iranian nuclear sites. The world’s top state sponsor of terrorism simply cannot have nuclear weapons capabilities. God bless America and our brave troops.
On this day we commemorate when the last enslaved Americans were informed of their freedom. On June 19, 1865, more than two years after the Emancipation Proclamation, Union troops arrived in Galveston, Texas and announced the end of slavery. Happy Juneteenth 📜
