Dear Secretary Rubio,
WASHINGTON – Today, Representatives Don Bacon (R-NE), Tom Suozzi (D-NY), Jeff Hurd (R-CO) and Josh Gottheimer (D-NJ) released a statement of principles for lowering health care costs and temporarily extending and reforming the Affordable Care Act (ACA) enhanced premium tax credits (APTCs). The principles focus on a temporary extension with reasonable income caps and reform.
Bacon, Suozzi, Hurd and Gottheimer released the following quote:
Farmingdale, N.Y.—Today, Congressman Tom Suozzi (D-NY) joined Island Harvest President and CEO, Randi Shubin Dresner, and Long Island Cares President and CEO, Katherine Fritz, at a food distribution event at Farmingdale College to call on the Trump Administration to fund SNAP immediately.
In recent months, Rep. Tom Suozzi (D-NY) has stood apart from many of his Democratic colleagues in offering staunch support for Israel, openly praising President Donald Trump for finalizing a deal to free the hostages in Gaza and maintaining a hard line against New York City Democratic mayoral nominee Zohran Mamdani.
Washington, D.C.— Congressman Suozzi recently introduced the Bipartisan Indian American Heritage Resolution to celebrate the rich history and contributions of the Indian American community on Long Island and across the nation. Suozzi also wrote a letter to Secretary Hegseth raising concerns from his constituents, including Sikh Americans, regarding beards in the military.
Washington, D.C.—Yesterday, Congressman Suozzi sent a letter to President Trump thanking
him for securing the Israel-Hamas ceasefire and urging him to continue his work and ensure the
bodies of the deceased hostages, including two American citizens, are returned to their families.
One of those American hostages, Omer Neutra, was a constituent of Suozzi’s.
Washington, DC—Congressman Tom Suozzi (D—Nassau, Queens), a first-generation Italian American, has co-sponsored and introduced a resolution declaring October 2025 as "Italian and Italian-American Heritage Month."
Washington, DC – Today, Problem Solvers Co-Chair Tom Suozzi (D-NY), alongside the bipartisan Ukrainian Congressional Caucus Co-Chairs Congresswoman Marcy Kaptur (D-OH), Congressman Brian Fitzpatrick (R-PA), Congressman Mike Quigley (D-IL), Congressman Joe Wilson (R-SC), and former House Foreign Affairs Committee Chair Congressman Michael McCaul (R-TX), led a letter to President Trump ahead of his White House meeting with Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy.
The government has shut down, and Washington is at a standstill. Republicans control the presidency, the Senate and the House, but they need Democratic votes to meet the 60-vote Senate threshold. Based on many conversations with both Democrats and Republicans in the House and Senate, I believe most want to 1) reopen the government, and 2) address the health insurance premiums set to skyrocket on Jan. 1 if Congress doesn't act, with notifications hitting mailboxes on Nov. 1. So, what's the problem?
