President Joe Biden has made his intentions to return to the failed foreign policies of the past very clear. This includes the Biden administration’s intent for the United States to "re-engage immediately and robustly" with the United Nations Human Rights Council (UNHRC) without receiving any commitments for much needed institutional reforms. 

Murders, shootings, hate crimes, burglaries, robberies, and rapes have skyrocketed over the past year and lawmakers say ‘‘enough is enough.’'

Congresswoman Nicole Malliotakis, City Council Minority Leader Steven Matteo, Councilman Joe Borelli, Assemblyman Michael Reilly, and Assemblyman Michael Tannousis convened on Monday morning for a press conference to call attention to the recent surge in crime and the need to change current policies in order to restore safety in Staten Island and New York City.

Supporters of President Trump stormed the U.S. Capitol on Jan. 6, and some members of Congress think that needs a commission similar to the one conducted after 9/11.

Rep. Nicole Malliotakis (R-Staten Island/South Brooklyn) and most of her Republican colleagues don’t think what the Democratic majority has proposed is the right move. Here’s why, according to Staten Island’s only congressional representative.

Last month, we had the opportunity to visit our southern border and see this migrant crisis firsthand. While we were there, we saw a 5-year-old girl all alone. She was in tears – not knowing where she is or where her family may have gone.  

STATEN ISLAND, N.Y. – Rep. Nicole Malliotakis requested over $6 million for various projects on Staten Island and more than $5 million to fund various projects in the South Brooklyn part of her district.

Malliotakis’ requests were submitted to the House Committee on Transportation and Infrastructure and the House Committee on Appropriations.

There is a look at the funding proposals:

GOP Congresswoman Nicole Malliotakis has demanded President Biden and Attorney General Merrick Garland send the feds to Gotham to help the city in its losing battle against rising crime.

“We urge you to deploy additional law enforcement officers to New York to assist our police force until our communities no longer face this daily and growing threat of gun violence,” the freshman Staten Island lawmaker wrote in a May 7 letter to both men she shared with The Post.

Reps. Nicole Malliotakis, Ann Wagner and Kat Cammack all visited the Donna Migrant Facility in McAllen, TX, on two separate congressional delegations to McAllen, TX, in April. Their conversations, experiences and observations from their trips are detailed in this piece.

STATEN ISLAND, N.Y. — Rep. Nicole Malliotakis had some face time with President Joe Biden after his first address to Congress Wednesday night.

She said that they spoke about the ongoing humanitarian crisis at the nation’s southern border, and plans for addressing the nation’s infrastructure needs.

“I urged him to go to the border, to see what I saw, to hear what I heard,” Malliotakis (R-Staten Island/South Brooklyn) said. “This is something that is affecting the entire nation.”
