Former President Donald Trump has endorsed Rep. Mike Lawler for re-election in New York's 17th Congressional District, praising his efforts on critical issues like border security and economic growth. Trump's endorsement underlines Lawler's role as a central figure in a competitive election landscape, particularly as Democrats seek to regain control of the House. Lawler, seen as a vulnerable incumbent after flipping the seat in 2022, is balancing local concerns with national GOP priorities, especially regarding the SALT deduction, a priority for suburban voters.
Trump has emphasized the importance of Lawler's efforts in border security, economic growth, and local tax issues, reflecting his commitment to the America First agenda.
The endorsement of Mike Lawler marks Trump's most direct involvement in a Hudson Valley congressional race as they gear up for the November elections.
