Congressman Mike Lawler

Under Governor Hochul's watch, New Yorkers are being forced to fund an unprecedented crisis with their own hard-earned money, even as resources are diverted from critical needs, such as education in my district. The Governor’s policies have been disastrous, and yet she continues…

Over the weekend, I visited the Hudson Valley Interarts Center in Patterson, New York, along with Kevin Byrne. Their building, unfortunately, took damage during last week's heavy rain. Thankfully, no one was in the building at the time.

Congrats to my friend and fellow New Yorker @RepGarbarino on being elected Chair of Homeland Security. It’s a privilege to serve with him and now to see him lead 🇺🇸

I had the opportunity to sit down with Ambassador Ursu of Moldova. Thank you for joining me as you round out your visit here in the United States.

As a cosponsor, I’m excited that the Equal Opportunity for All Investors Act has passed the House. This opens the door for families across the country to access high-growth investments by allowing anyone to demonstrate their knowledge through an SEC exam, rather than relying…

Last week, I chaired a MENA hearing and had the opportunity to question Acting Under Secretary of the U.S. Department of State, José Cunningham, on the Management Family FY26 Budget Posture.

It was a pleasure to join the conversation at @AIPAC’s annual Summer Seminar Series last week. Thank you for the opportunity to join and for the engaging discussion.

This week, I honored Ron Tocci. Ron is a Hudson Valley hero whose lifelong commitment to veterans is unmatched. From serving with the 82nd Airborne to decades advocating for our heroes in Albany and Westchester, Ron exemplifies true service above self. Thank you, Ron, for your…

I honored Patricia "Patty" Rathschmidt on the house floor. Patty is a remarkable woman whose compassion touched countless lives. From her family to founding United For The Troops, Patty spent her life serving others. Her legacy of kindness and strength lives on.

Earlier this week, I honored Herman S. Geist—a true Westchester legend and a decorated World War II veteran whose leadership helped shape our community for generations. His legacy of service, humility, and integrity will never be forgotten.

My heart is heavy as we remember little Golda Eisenbach, tragically taken from us by a drunk driver. A devastating loss that reminds us how one reckless choice can shatter so many lives. May Golda’s memory always be a blessing.

New York City is on the path to elect a self declared socialist as their next mayor. NYC needs a one on one race for mayor in order to avoid falling into communism.

I would like to thank President Trump for responding promptly to our request to release the funding, recognizing the importance of these programs for our children’s futures. As always, I remain committed to ensuring students have every opportunity for success.

The Dignity Act of 2025 clears visa backlogs, supports ag workers, and boosts high-skilled immigration to keep that vision alive. This is not amnesty for those in this country illegally. This is a 7 year program for those who are working or going to school to have a pathway to…

I’m proud to join the bipartisan effort to maintain the 988 line service. Since its launch in 2022, the LGBTQ+ specialized line within 988 has responded to more than 1.3 million calls, texts, and chats. That is more than 2,100 contacts every single day. Every one of those…

The reality is that kids today are facing real mental health challenges, and they are reaching out for help. For LGBTQ+ youth, those challenges are often more severe. That is why I joined this bipartisan effort to maintain the 988 line service. Our job is to protect the health…

The House just passed the GENIUS Act, a significant step toward establishing clear regulatory guardrails for stablecoins. By creating a sensible regulatory framework, we’re protecting consumers, boosting market confidence, and cementing America's leadership in the digital…

Extremely glad to partner with bipartisan colleagues in introducing the updated DIGNITY Act of 2025. As President Reagan said, America is a shining city on a hill for those seeking a better life. Our bill clears visa backlogs, supports ag workers, and boosts high-skilled…

If you’re a homeowner in Rockland, Westchester, Dutchess, or Putnam, tag someone who’s going to see their tax bill shrink and let them know I kept my promise and we got it done. ✅ SALT cap raised 4x from $10K to $40K ✅ Relief that ensures fairness without runaway costs ✅…

WATCH: @RepMikeLawler on the housing shortage: "With mortgage rates near their highest since the turn of the millennium, it is perhaps the most difficult time to purchase a home in our nation's history. However, so much of the crisis comes back to the fact that we are not…
