The Upstate Congresswoman headlined the event, which also featured Senator Peter Oberacker and Assemblyman Chris Tague, as well as many other state and local GOP officials.
Congresswoman Stefanik was proud to support endorsed candidates and assist in efforts to win local races across Broome County in 2025 including but not limited to:

– Incumbent Jared Kraham for Binghamton Mayor

“The fight to fire the Worst Governor in America Kathy Hochul in 2026 begins right here, right now, in Broome County. This is the year we build a strong foundation of elected Republicans who will serve hardworking families across Broome County. We must then build upon the strength of our victories in 2025 to work to fire Kathy Hochul next year,” said Stefanik.
“Republicans are united behind President Donald J. Trump and Elise Stefanik who are fighting for families across New York State,” said Broome County Republican Chairman Benji Federman. “They’re putting more money in families’ pockets with historic tax cuts, protecting Medicaid and Medicare, restoring American energy independence, and expanding access to affordable childcare. Meanwhile, Kathy Hochul and New York Democrats are bankrupting New Yorkers and making communities less safe. We’re on a mission to Save New York. That starts today.”
