ST. LAWRENCE COUNTY, NY – Today, 111 St. Lawrence County elected officials including Republicans, Conservatives, Democrats, and Independents, endorsed Congresswoman Elise Stefanik for re-election to Congress.

“Throughout my tenure on the St. Lawrence County Board of Legislators, it has been my pleasure to work with the Congresswoman as well as her staff. Elise works hard to support the North Country and the United States. I can think of nobody I would rather see represent our values in Congress,” said David Forsythe (R), Chairman of the St. Lawrence County Board of Legislators.

“Elise Stefanik has been a great advocate for the 21st District and our country. She has been a vocal and dedicated patriot fighting to protect our country against the radical left, dangerously open borders, and high inflation,” said Rick Perkins (R), Vice Chairman of the County Board of Legislators. “Elise is a strong supporter for our 2nd Amendment rights, our military, and our forgotten veterans. Elise also supports promoting American energy. I proudly support Elise Stefanik for the office of the 21st District.”

“Elise has a strong record of fighting for the North Country and the working class here. She supports working Americans as she fights the current administration’s inflation crisis. From an energy independent America to a secure border, Elise Stefanik stands up for policies that put America first,” said Daniel Skamperle (D), City of Ogdensburg Councilman.

“As the Supervisor of Potsdam, I look for strong leadership like that in Elise Stefanik. Elise is a great representative for our district who delivers for her constituents. I am happy to endorse her,” Marty Miller (D), Potsdam Town Supervisor.

“I’m grateful for the support and endorsement of these St. Lawrence County leaders. It has been an honor to work with each of them on bipartisan issues to help North Country families,” Congresswoman Stefanik said. “I continue to work with Republicans, Democrats, and Independents to deliver real results for my constituents. I am overwhelmed by the outpouring of support for my re-election campaign, and look forward to our landslide victory in St. Lawrence county once again!”
