Our farmers are struggling, it’s no secret. Why? Because of tariffs and the disastrous trade war with China. It’s time to send a farmer to Congress, one who will protect North Country residents.

In less than two months, New Yorkers across the North Country will have to pay a lot more for healthcare. We need Congress to extend ACA subsidies. Unfortunately, Congresswoman Elise Stefanik is too busy running for Governor. www.politico.com/news/2025/11...
Looming affordability crisis set to hit Americans with health insurance through work
It’s a perilous combination for 165 million people with employer-sponsored health insurance. Premiums are rising, while yearly pay raises shrink.

Agriculture is the number one industry in Upstate NY and the North Country. We had a great get together with farmers like myself at Woody Hill Farm in Salem, NY. We discussed issues like labor shortages, healthcare, inflation, immigration and solar power to name a few.

Basketball season is here in the New York State Public High School Athletic Association (NYSPHSAA)! Coaching youth and High School basketball has been one of the most meaningful experiences of my life — it taught me leadership, patience, and the power of investing in our kids.

Today we pause to recognize the men and women who answered the call to serve. Their strength, their quiet bravery, and their unwavering commitment built the foundation of the freedoms we rely on each day.

Today, the 250th anniversary of the United States Marine Corps, we honor all who have served and sacrificed for our nation.
I’m especially thinking of my uncle, William Raymond Gendebien, a Marine pilot whose F-4B Phantom II was shot down over Quang Nam in 1965.

Happy Election Day, New York! I was proud to spend the past year traveling across New York’s 21st, helping get out the vote for our local communities. If you haven’t voted yet, make a plan today, and make your voice heard. Let’s win this!

Over the past year, I’ve traveled across all 15 Counties of New York’s 21st District — from Glens Falls to Massena, from Plattsburgh to Rome. — standing beside local candidates who care deeply about our communities. Now it’s your turn to make your voice heard. Democracy only works when we show up.

Tomorrow, thousands of New Yorkers are going to wake up without SNAP benefits. Right now, we need to come together to help our fellow community members in anyway we can. Support your local food banks and contribute your time and resources if you are able.

We need to make sure SNAP is fully funded for New Yorkers. Millions rely on these critical benefits, and they expire in less than 24 hours. We need government working for us again! www.fox5ny.com/news/ny-snap...

First Argentina killed our soybean business, now they have the green light from DC to destroy our beef ranchers. Washington is selling us out and New Yorkers deserve better. It’s why I am running for Congress—enough with D.C. insiders representing us.

Mike Johnson is playing games with the livelihoods of more than 50,000 households in New York’s 21st that rely on SNAP and food assistance to survive. They need to get back to work and start earning their paycheck just like all the hard working people up in the North Country have to do.
