Opinion: Stefanik lives up to her word, says Potsdam man

To the Editor:

Elise Stefanik was endorsed by Jordan Sekulow who is the executive director for the American Center for Law and Justice. Sekulow says what inspired him to give his endorsement was the congresswoman’s steadfast defense of the constitution. Another reason, he added, was her willingness to expose and highlight government corruption and the willful misleading of the public.

And after seeing her stand up against Adam Schiff during the Trump impeachment I couldn’t agree more. I’m sick and tired of politicians saying one thing and doing another. Luckily, Elise isn’t one of those politicians. She does what she says she is going to do and holds her colleagues in Washington to the same standard.

Whereas her opponent, Tedra Cobb, has been caught in quite a few lies during this campaign, most notoriously a gun ban.

Congresswoman Stefanik is who we need in Washington, not someone who will publicly lie to the very people she hopes will vote for her.

Where Taxin’ Tedra lies, Elise is honest; Elise doesn’t have any agenda but to protect our Constitutional rights, take care of our veterans and seniors, and to advocate for a safe reopening of schools this November. Her agenda is to help not to lie and gain, that’s why you should vote for her.
