Scott McGee welcomes
freshman Republican Assemblyman Mike Lawler, who is running to be the next congressman
in New York's newly drawn 17th District. It’s currently being
held by freshman Rep. Mondaire Jones, but Lawler is running against Rep. Sean
Patrick Maloney.
Lawler is the former executive director of the New York State Republican
Party and also was an adviser to former Westchester County Executive Rob
Astorino. Before his election he was a deputy town supervisor in Orangetown.
