Suozzi and Gillen Vote for Government Shutdown, Gamble Long Islanders’ Safety

Democrats Tom Suozzi and Laura Gillen supported Joe Biden’s reckless open-border agenda that allowed illegal immigration to explode to an all time high of 14 million. While President Trump and House Republicans are investing in border security and law enforcement to keep families safe, Suozzi and Gillen are busy selling out their own constituents.

It’s simple: Out of touch Tom Suozzi and Laura Gillen refuse to stand up for safety. Instead, they voted to shut down the government, forcing border patrol agents and law enforcement officers to work without pay, making communities less safe and putting illegal immigrants ahead of hardworking New Yorkers.

“Out of touch Democrats Tom Suozzi and Laura Gillen’s betrayal couldn’t be more clear. Every time they get the chance, Suozzi and Gillen side with illegal immigrants and spits in the face of New Yorkers, even if it means shutting down the government. It’s disgraceful, it’s dangerous, and voters won’t forget it.” – NRCC Spokeswoman Maureen O’Toole
