Our office recently assisted a retired member of the NYPD and former federal employee who worked at the Department of Veterans Affairs in unlocking his TreasuryDirect account after being locked out for several weeks, preventing him from accessing his investments.  

At the end of April, this constituent contacted our office after the Bureau of the Fiscal Service (BFS) was slow to acknowledge his request to lift a hold on his account, and his attempts to contact TreasuryDirect resulted in phone calls being abruptly disconnected with no resolution.

House Republicans, including Rep. Nicole Malliotakis (R-Staten Island/South Brooklyn), received a chilly reception at Columbia University Wednesday after meeting with Jewish students about on-campus antisemitism.

“It’s shocking the amount of antisemitism that we’re seeing coming out of America’s colleges,” Malliotakis said. “It is heartbreaking.”

The group, led by Speaker Mike Johnson (R-La.), visited the Morningside Heights institution to learn more about the ongoing protests in support of the Palestinian people, and its impact on the school.
