We're representing our districts. I make decisions on my district.

My federal, state, and local experience will allow me the opportunity to effectively represent the constituents of the Fourth District.

I see myself as a person who wants to serve the constituents within my district and find a way to move those who are not in our position philosophically to our position.

I look forward to representing the voters of District 30 and moving the state in a new direction.

I am proud to represent New York's 13th Congressional District, which has one of the largest and diverse populations in the country.

In Washington, I am a leader on the issues that matter to my community, and I think that's what my constituents want, and also I think that's what voters want. Someone who understands them, who wants to represent them, and who works tirelessly every day on behalf of their interests and their values.

Passionately defending one's principles is crucial. Representing your district is fundamental. But refusing to entertain the common ground - with no other cost but giving the other guy a political 'win' - is a disservice.

My district is well-acquainted with my commitment to protecting innocent human life.

Every decision I make in Congress will be centered on the needs of the district.

I will vote adamantly against the interests of my district if I actually think what I am doing is going to be helpful.
