How out of touch is Laura Gillen?

In case you forgot, extreme Democrat Laura Gillen voted to shut down the government—choosing politics over New Yorkers! She turned her back on the very people she claims to fight for, putting partisan games ahead of their livelihood.

• New Yorkers’ safety may be threatened as law enforcement officers, members of the military, and TSA workers might not get paid.
• There are 778,522 veterans in the state that will lose out on critical programs – including employment assistance programs.
• The 6,870 federal workers in Gillen’s district may have to work WITHOUT getting paid.
• Millions in loan financing for New York’s 2.2 million small businesses will be jeopardized.
• Funding for the Head Start program – which 38,360 children in New York rely on – may be cut off.

This week the NRCC launched a digital ad targeting Laura Gillen for voting to shut down the government:

“Out-of-touch Laura Gillen proved she doesn’t care about her constituents—voting to shut down the government. New Yorkers deserve a leader who fights for them, not a self-serving politician more focused on stunts than solutions.” – NRCC Spokeswoman Maureen O’Toole
