I had an insightful meeting with civic association presidents in Elmont about key priorities, including securing federal resources for community development. My campaign is committed to engaging with grassroots leaders on important issues.

“Laura Gillen is the right person for the job. She will fight to ensure our wages and benefits keep up with the rising cost of living. We are endorsing her because she will protect the American Dream on Long Island,” said John Jovic, Insulators Local 12 Business Manager.

D’Esposito supported the overturning of Roe, voted to jail doctors for providing abortions, and voted to restrict abortion access for military servicewomen. He can’t run from this record of extremism.

In this election, our rights are on the line: reproductive rights, LGBTQ rights, civil rights, and voting rights. We have to retake the House to reaffirm Roe and reinvigorate the Voting Rights Act and Civil Rights Act.

I am devastated to hear of the murder of six hostages in Gaza, including American Hersh Goldberg-Polin. We must stand with Israel in the mission to dismantle Hamas and bring the hostages home. timesofisrael.com/bodies-of-6-ho…

Yesterday, I met parents and students at HEVN’s 20th Community Day, a back-to-school giveaway. HEVN is an organization dedicated to community uplift and violence intervention. Thank you to Apostle Mackey for welcoming me.

I am proud to have stood with organized labor as Supervisor, and I will continue to stand with labor in Congress. Together, we will move forward in the fight for fair pay, good benefits, and safe working conditions. Happy Labor Day to all the workers in NY-04!

On Friday, I spoke with Muslim community leaders from across the district about key concerns and priorities. In Congress, I will always fight to support Long Island families.

Thank you Rev. McDowell for allowing me to join the South Hempstead Baptist Church congregation on First Sunday. I am excited to continue my faith-based outreach and to work with the entire Eastern Baptist Association.

Happy first day of school! Yesterday, I stopped by the Long Beach MLK Center for Robbie’s Day, an asthma awareness community fair and back to school giveaway. Wishing all the students and teachers in #NY04 a productive, joyful 2024-2025 school year.

“Gillen has a strong track record of bipartisanship. Throughout her career, she has reached across the aisle to get things done. We are proud to endorse her so she can work with her colleagues of both parties to deliver for working people.” - Rich McLehose, NALC Branch 6000 Pres.

“Laura Gillen will fight to restore all women’s rights, end gun violence, preserve democracy, and lift up the working class.” - the incomparable 🕉🇺🇦🟦Stevie Van Zandt☮️💙

Trump told House Republicans to kill the bipartisan border deal, and D'Esposito fell right in line behind him. We need proven leaders, not party loyalists, to solve problems.

“We are proud to endorse Laura Gillen for Congress. She has been a steadfast supporter of Labor and right now Washington needs her leadership to deliver for hard working families in New York,” said Joe Geiger, NYC District Council of Carpenters Executive Secretary-Treasurer.

As Supervisor, I took aim at the practice of kickbacks and passed sweeping ethics reform. D'Esposito voted to line the pockets of friends and family. In Congress, I will advocate for all constituents — not just the well-connected.

This is exactly why we must fully fund federal law enforcement — grateful to the DOJ, FBI, and our Canadian allies who thwarted this horrific antisemitic terror plot.
