Two survivors of human trafficking have teamed up with Rep. Tom Suozzi to pass legislation aimed at helping and protecting other victims.
The Preventing Child Trafficking Act and Frederick Douglass Trafficking Victims Prevention and Protection Reauthorization Act would fund anti-trafficking programs, including training teachers and school districts to recognize signs of human trafficking.
The bills each have bipartisan support.
A U.S. House and Senate quartet led by Long Island Democratic Rep. Tom Suozzi and Texas GOP Sen. Ted Cruz say they’ve agreed on language for a bill to create buffer zones around houses of worship during religious services.
Washington, D.C. — Between 2024 and 2026, six million oysters were planted across three North Shore Bays—2 million each in Manhasset Bay, Hempstead Harbor, and Oyster Bay, utilizing funds Suozzi obtained in the FY22 Community Project Funding grants. This project to restore shellfish populations and improve water quality in Long Island’s North Shore bays was funded by the $300,000 in Community Project Funding that Congressman Tom Suozzi (D—Long Island, Queens) secured in the FY22 Appropriations process.
Washington, D.C. – Congressman Tom Suozzi (NY-03) sent two letters to Secretary of Homeland Security Markwayne Mullin, urging the administration to extend the Temporary Protected Status (TPS) designation for El Salvador and underscoring the stakes for TPS holders if the agency allows the program to expire. TPS for El Salvador, which has been in place for over 25 years, will expire on September 9, 2026.
Rep. Tom Suozzi is urging the Trump administration to renew temporary protected status for the more than 170,000 Salvadorans with that designation across the country, about 17,000 of whom live in New York State.
But the Glen Cove Democrat has received no assurances in an exchange of letters with Homeland Security Secretary Markwayne Mullin that the status will not be allowed to expire on Sept. 9.
I love America. Unfortunately, as we celebrate our nation’s 250th birthday, too many Americans associate those three words only with Republicans. Democrats need to change that.
Many in my party are unhappy with the nation’s current trajectory. Under President Trump, we’ve fallen short on income inequality. We’ve seen masked agents go head-to-head with U.S. citizens. Our elections and voting rights have been attacked, while misinformation proliferates online amid bigotry, extremism and political violence.
