Adam Schiff, and Rep. Dina Titus) issued the following statement:
The anniversary of Superstorm Sandy serves as a stark reminder of the devastation our community endured 11 years ago today. It also gives us an opportunity to reflect on the progress made as new sewers, berms, oyster beds, Bluebelts and other resiliency projects ensure Staten Island is protected in the event of another superstorm. The biggest of them all, the East Shore Seawall, got caught in a decade of bureaucratic red tape and endless redesigns made by the de Blasio Administration, setting back its construction several years.

Media members visit Kibbutz Kfar Aza in the aftermath of a deadly attack by Hamas terrorists.
The atrocities that have taken place in Israel over the past week are some of the worst savageries the world has ever seen.
Families slaughtered in the dead of night; innocent children burned and beheaded; young and old taken captive. It’s absolutely barbaric.
During this difficult time, the United States must unequivocally stand with our great ally Israel, and our Jewish-American neighbors, against the gross antisemitism and terror backed by Iran, perpetrated by Hamas and Hezbollah.
WASHINGTON, DC – Congresswoman Nicole Malliotakis (NY-11) released the following statement on October 16 applauding the governments of Greece and Cyprus for helping American citizens leave Israel:
House Republicans are threatening to subpoena former Gov. Andrew Cuomo as they investigate the deaths of nursing home patients during the opening months of the coronavirus pandemic.
They want to ask Cuomo about his administration’s COVID policies — including effectively requiring nursing homes to admit COVID patients from hospitals.
A bipartisan effort from lawmakers is calling on the State Department to use every resource possible to bring Americans home from Israel.
Rep. Nicole Malliotakis talks about the effort on PIX11 Morning News.
