The DCCC released a new TV ad in the race for New York’s 17th District, “Tush Push,” slamming Mike Lawler’s record of “tush pushing” Trump’s cost-raising policies across the finish line 100% of the time.
Lawler has rubber-stamped Trump’s disastrous agenda in Washington time and time again — from devastating health care cuts, to the reckless war in Iran, to his cost-spiking tariffs — all of which have raised costs on groceries, gas, health insurance, and utility bills. As Lawler’s own constituents get crushed under higher costs, he gets paid by Donald Trump and his billionaire donors.
The ad – the fourth to run in NY-17 from the DCCC and Cait for New York – will air during NFL, college football, and Knicks games now through election day and is part of the committee’s coordinated spending in key battleground districts.

2nd & 5: Run it again, even when it costs New York.
3rd & goal: The Trump tush push.
Lawler rams Trump’s agenda over the line.
We get higher costs on gas, groceries, and utilities.
And Lawler gets his reward.
Lawler’s playbook is simple: vote with Trump, cash the checks, punt the costs to us.
“I’m Cait Conley and I approve this message.”
