Today, the DCCC announced House Democrats’ Districts in Play for the 2026 election cycle includes Mike Lawler (NY-17), signaling Democrats’ readiness to reclaim the House majority by focusing on this key seat in New York.
The DCCC’s Districts in Play are competitive districts held by vulnerable Republicans across the country that will determine the House Majority.
Lawler’s addition to the DCCC’s Districts in Play sends the clear message that Democrats will ensure Hudson Valley voters know of Lawler’s continued embrace of Elon Musk’s extremism and his party’s dangerously far-right agenda that’s raising costs, destroying jobs, eroding New Yorkers’ freedoms, and hurting our country’s future.
Statement from DCCC Chair Suzan DelBene:
“Mike Lawler is running scared, and he should be. From tanking the economy, gutting Medicaid, abandoning our veterans, to making everything more expensive, he’s broken his promises to New Yorkers, and it’s going to cost him his seat. The DCCC is already working to recruit authentic and battle-ready candidates in the Hudson Valley who reflect this district and will work to better New Yorkers’ lives, not line Elon Musk and his DC party bosses’ pockets.”
Additionally, the DCCC has launched nominee fund pages, providing grassroots donors the ability to contribute now to the eventual Democratic nominee in Districts in Play.
