Thomas "Tom" R. SuozziThomas "Tom" R. Suozzi

Congressman Suozzi knows that America’s epidemic of violence is unacceptable, driving him to become a leading advocate for lifesaving legislation at both local and national levels for decades. As Nassau County Executive, Congressman Suozzi successfully pioneered a successful gun buyback program, taking more than 1,100 illegal operable handguns off the streets during his tenure.

Representing Long Island’s North Shore, Tom Suozzi has been a strong supporter of the U.S.-Israel throughout his tenure in Congress. During his first three terms, Suozzi cosponsored and voted for legislation that sanctions individuals who provide Iran with unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) and for an anti-BDS bill.

Rep. Suozzi has been a leader in permitting reform and working to reduce red tape, lower energy costs, and accelerate the development of critical energy projects. He is also a strong advocate for small businesses, working every day to grow our economy and create jobs across Long Island.

Incumbent

Tom Suozzi is seeking reelection for United States Congress, representing District 3.

Rep. Tom Suozzi is running to defend his seat. Republicans are targeting NY-03 aggressively this cycle, as it is one of the 13 Democratic-held seats that Trump carried in 2024. Democrats are working to hold this seat as Republicans look to make gains on Long Island, with a well-funded field already in place. Holding this district requires early investment and attention. With popular local Nassau County Executive Blake Blakeman leading the Republican ticket as the candidate for Governor, holding this seat will be especially challenging.

Every endorsed candidate voted for the Faster Labor Contracts Act, a Teamsters-backed bill that would streamline the process for newly organized workers who are working to secure their first collective bargaining agreement. "It's an honor to support this bipartisan group of incumbents, because the Faster Labor Contracts Act is a gamechanger, and it will empower workers more than any federal law that's been passed since the New Deal," said Thomas Gesualdi, President of Teamsters Joint Council 16. "Support for this bill is a litmus test for whether a member of Congress actually supports the American worker, and every one of our endorsed candidates passed that test with flying colors."
