To the editor:

Marc Molinaro is trying to deceive us. He pretends voting for him will protect access to IVF treatment and other reproductive freedoms, but that is not true. A vote for Mr. Molinaro is a vote to retain Republican control of Congress under the “leadership” of extremists like Mike Johnson and Majorie Taylor Greeene - extremists who will never allow a bill to protect access to IVF treatment to become law. Instead, these extremists will enact a national abortion ban, and will even outlaw birth control. Their extremists plan is laid out in Project 2025 and voting for Mr. Molinaro would help Project 2025 to become law. We can stop this extremist takeover only by ensuring that Republicans lose control of Congress, and fortunately we have a terrific candidate for this task: Josh Riley.

Josh Riley was born and raised in Endicott, near Binghamton, and he is a perfect choice to represent our values in Congress. Josh will vote to restore the protection of Roe v. Wade so that women can once again make their own healthcare decisions without interference from extremist politicians. (Mr. Molinaro won’t do so). And Josh will vote to secure our border, update our immigration laws to ensure farmers and other employers have adequate access to seasonal labor, and ensure asylum seekers are treated fairly.

I am pleased to support Josh Riley for Congress. Please visit JoshRileyforCongress.com to learn more about him.
