NY War Room: Nick LaLota Fails August Recess on His Back To Session Report Card
August 28, 2023
New York, NY – As August recess comes to a close, Nick LaLota remains a no-show in NY-01 as he remains silent on his policy flip-flops and the looming government shutdown.
Here is Nick LaLota’s report card:
- F: Supported GOP Presidential Candidates running on a MAGA agenda that includes draconian national abortion bans, gutting Social Security and Medicare, and cutting taxes for billionaires and corporations.
- F: Dodged his constituents as he avoided holding an open, in-person town hall.
- F: Switched his stance to abortion being a “state level” issue after voting to restrict access to abortion nationwide by penalizing doctors and refusing to comment on H.R. 7, a bill introduced by extremist House Republicans to ban abortion for millions of Americans.
- F: Remains silent on Republican leadership’s lack of action with the impending government shutdown that will cause major disruptions for the day-to-day lives of millions of New Yorkers.
- F: Refused to comment on whether or not he’d support extremist water Infrastructure cuts of critical dollars for replacing and repairing lead pipes, wastewater facilities, and aging infrastructure.
“Extremist House Republican Nick LaLota continues to avoid accountability by ignoring the community he serves while pushing the GOP’s most extreme policies,” HMP NY Press Secretary Alisha Heng said. “LaLota is out-of-touch and has turned his back on millions of New Yorkers by supporting the MAGA extremist agenda, and voters will ensure he is kicked out of office in 2024.”
