Readers Write: Suozzi will fix this

We have not had representation in Congress since George Santos took office in January 2023.

He has made our district a laughingstock on television and radio across the country and in our community. We now have the opportunity to elect someone with integrity, experience and knowledge.

We don’t have the time for someone with no knowledge of, or experience in, Congress to learn how to serve our district’s voters.

The Republican Party did not properly research the background of their candidate in 2020 and 2022 before they nominated him to run twice for office and we can’t trust them to properly research their newly nominated candidate.

The Republican candidate in this election has only two years in elected office, and none in Congress. Tom Suozzi’s background is well known to Nassau’s voters from his years of service as mayor, county executive and congressman.

He knows Congress and knows the district. He will not need to learn how House committees and House offices work or how to get things done for our district. Tom Suozzi is our best possibility for quickly getting effective representation in Congress.

So many rights are under attack in our country right now, including reproductive rights.  Will the Republican candidate if elected be able to stand up to her Party leaders to represent the will of the residents of New York’s 3rd Congressional District?

I don’t think so.

Please vote for Tom Suozzi on Feb. 13 to restore our representation in the U.S. House of Representatives.
