Rep. Tom Suozzi expresses willingness to partner with Trump on immigration reform and border security efforts
Suozzi knows Trump from his days as county executive. He mentioned that Trump even donated to his campaign back then. It’s interesting how connections can shape politics, right?
As a moderate, Suozzi leads the Problem Solver Caucus, which includes centrist Republicans and Democrats. He believes in working together, especially on issues like illegal immigration and crime.
He pointed out that Trump won in his district, which covers parts of Nassau and eastern Queens. Suozzi won his seat by a smaller margin, so he knows he needs to listen to his constituents.
Suozzi agrees with Trump’s focus on stopping illegal immigration and targeting cartels. He thinks these should be shared priorities for the country.
He also praised New York Republicans for their efforts to restore tax deductions. It seems like he’s hoping for some bipartisan cooperation.
While he acknowledges their differences, Suozzi is committed to finding common ground. He wants to focus on solutions that benefit the American people, not just party lines.
After losing his House seat in 2022 while running for governor, he made a comeback in a special election last February. It’s been quite a journey for him!
