State of the Union: America Is Stronger, No Thanks to Nicole Malliotakis

President Biden’s first State of the Union Address highlights the economic progress Malliotakis tried to block for New Yorkers

Tonight, President Biden made clear in his first State of the Union Address that historic efforts Nicole Malliotakis voted against, like Democrats’ American Rescue Plan, led to an economic recovery that has uplifted New York’s workers, families, and small businesses.

While Malliotakis and reckless Republicans built a record of voting against the middle class and opposing the efforts that have helped us move past the crisis phase of COVID, Democrats have remained focused on delivering the results voters want to see: record job growth, higher wages, kids back in schools, and real plans to lower costs.

If Malliotakis and Republicans were in charge, New Yorkers would’ve lost out on these historic accomplishments that rebooted our economy, created jobs, and crushed COVID, and would likely be sicker, poorer, and worse off than they are today as a result.

Even now as Democrats move forward with their latest plans to lower costs that are hurting working Americans, Malliotakis’ fellow Republicans in Congress are promoting an agenda that threatens to tax seniors’ Social Security benefits and make working families pay hundreds of dollars more in taxes, with no plan to fight inflation.

DCCC Spokesperson Abel Iraola
“President Biden outlined tonight just why it’s so important for New Yorkers to vote Nicole Malliotakis out of Congress this November. Malliotakis has consistently stood in the way of New Yorkers’ economic progress and it’s clear she wouldn’t hesitate to join her party bosses to destroy it all if Republicans take charge.”
