We’re in the final stretch and I’m spending October connecting directly with the people of NY-01. I am hosting our next town hall on Tuesday, October 13 in Huntington. This is what true representation looks like and how democracy works best. I look forward to seeing you all there. #huntington

Sunday lunch at Robke’s in Northport with incredible company. The food was delicious, and the conversation was profound. The momentum is real and we are making strides to a Suffolk County with strong leadership and better representation. Let’s do this in November 🗳️ #election #longisland

You know what’s sexy? A plan that actually delivers for Long Island. My 6-point Mission Plan is focused on the issues that affect our lives every day. Politics should be about solutions and results. #politics #breakingnews #longisland #suffolkcountyny #newyork

Let’s be clear about what this is: a coordinated political hit meant to drive me out of this race. I’m proud of who I am. I won’t be shamed into silence – and I won’t allow my private life to be distorted and weaponized against me.

Nick Lalota is a career politician hoping voters won’t kick the tires on his lies. Let’s set the table straight on SALT. Let’s be clear: the $40,000 cap is a temporary fix with an expiration date. I’m Chris Gallant. In Congress, I’ll fight for permanent SALT relief. #congress #suffolkcountyny

Corrupt politicians in DC have sold out the middle class and Nick Lalota is part of the problem. We need fighters in DC that will take on corruption to bring down the cost of living. In Congress, I’ll be a fighter for Long Island, not another rubber stamp. #cnn #breakingnews #longisland #politics

Happy National Aviation Day! ✈️ Aviation has taught me that leadership is about preparation, responsibility, & staying steady when the stakes are high. From serving as a Black Hawk pilot in the Army National Guard to working as an air traffic controller. Service has always been my mission. #congress

Gas prices on Long Island are now averaging more than $4 a gallon, nearly a dollar more than this time last year. The war with Iran has disrupted global oil markets and families are feeling the impact. Nick LaLota voted to let the war continue at the cost of Long Islanders. #affordability

Yesterday, I had the opportunity to serve as a panelist at a Youth Town Hall and hear directly from the next generation of Long Islanders. Engaging our young people is vital, especially as too many feel they are being priced out of the communities they grew up in. #genz #millennial #political

Nick LaLota has been a rubber stamp for Donald Trump, not a voice for Long Island. We deserve a representative who shows up, listens, and fights for working families. It’s time for change. #longisland #suffolkcountyny #ny01 #congress #politics

When LaLota had the chance to help make the Epstein records public, he refused to push the Justice Department and voted "no" to declassify files.  Time and again, when given a choice between standing up for Long Island or falling in line with Donald Trump and partisan politics, LaLota chooses Trump.

Nearly 5,000 sailors and Marines aboard the USS Abraham Lincoln have been deployed for months beyond what they were promised, with reports of shortages of food and a devastating toll on those serving aboard. Nick LaLota rubber-stamped this war. Our service members are paying the price.

Nick LaLota had a direct role in passing legislation that puts healthcare at risk for more than 63,000 Long Islanders. That’s not leadership. That’s not putting Long Island first. He will have to answer for his record this November. #Congress #SuffolkCountyNY #Politics #LongIsland #BigBeautifulBill

$100 used to fill an entire grocery cart. Today, it barely fills two bags. Long Island families are paying more, and Nick LaLota keeps rubber-stamping policies that make life even more expensive. I will fight for us. #suffolkcountyny #longisland #affordability #midterms #politics

NY-01 is officially on the map. Our district has been added to the DCCC’s highly competitive Districts in Play program. NY-01 is tired of being represented by no-show Nick LaLota. This milestone shows that NY-01 is ready to elect leadership that serves with integrity, accountability, and purpose.

Long Island families are already feeling squeezed every time they go to the grocery store, fill up their gas tank, or pay their monthly bills. And when conflict escalates overseas, those costs often go even higher. What’s happening abroad doesn’t stay abroad. It hits our wallets right here at home.

For far too long, women’s health has been underfunded, under-researched, and overlooked. Endometriosis affects millions of women, yet too many spend years waiting for a diagnosis while living with chronic pain. PCOS affects 1 in 8 women and is a leading cause of infertility.

Chris Gallant @gallantny.bsky.social · 31/07/2026
In the same breath as his photo ops, LaLota sent a letter to local town supervisors threatening to withhold support for federal funding requests unless they allowed ICE to operate in their communities on his terms. Long Island deserves leadership that truly serves the people.

Thank you, Jake Tapper, for having me on CNN. At the end of the day, my focus is always on Long Islanders. While Washington often gets caught up in distractions, the people I represent are dealing with real challenges right now—rising costs and the struggle to afford everyday essentials.
