• In-person town halls with constituents 2146 days silent
  Expected position: As the representative for NY-21, Stefanik was expected to hold regular face-to-face town halls where constituents could question her about her voting record, particularly after her pivotal vote for the One Big Beautiful Bill Act that cut Medicaid. Evidence of activity on adjacent topics: Stefanik has not hosted a single in-person town hall since October 11, 2019 — nearly six years. A Watertown Daily Times review of her schedule, public postings, and media accounts confirmed the gap. During this period, she held nine telephone town halls and made choreographed visits to county fairs, fundraisers, and press events. When she appeared at a Plattsburgh ceremony in August 2025, protesters booed her relentlessly, chanting 'Shame' and 'You sold us out,' with one protester telling NBC 5: 'She won't hold a town hall, she won't take questions. She's never in her office.' Primary URL: https://www.nny360.com/news/it-s-been-six-years-since-stefanik-hosted-last-in-person-town-hall/article_92be2c5a-6dce-5e3d-9173-55877dcc5835.html

• H.R. 1 ↗ YEA 2025-05-22
  One Big Beautiful Bill Act (Trump tax-and-spending reconciliation package)
  why contradicted?

  [against_constituent] Stefanik was the deciding vote (215–214) for the OBBBA, which cut approximately $880 billion from Medicaid over a decade and reduced SNAP benefits. Seven hospitals in her district were identified as at risk of closure under the cuts. Constituents protested in Plattsburgh, but Stefanik touted the bill's SALT cap increase as a win for New Yorkers. The vote made her the target of a Democratic ad campaign.
• H.R. 8035 ↗ NAY 2024-04-20
  Ukraine Security Supplemental Appropriations Act, 2024 ($60.8 billion Ukraine aid)
  why contradicted?

  [reversal] Stefanik was the only member of House GOP leadership to vote against Ukraine aid, aligning with the isolationist wing of her party. She had previously supported Ukraine aid and advocated for Ukraine's NATO membership, making this a reversal. Fort Drum, the largest employer in her district, is deeply connected to NATO readiness.
• H.R. 3684 ↗ NAY 2021-11-05
  Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act (Bipartisan Infrastructure Law)
  why contradicted?

  [against_constituent] Stefanik voted against the $1.2 trillion infrastructure bill that provided $65 billion for rural broadband, $110 billion for roads and bridges, and significant investment for upstate NY water systems. Her district, where only 72.6% own homes and broadband access remains spotty, stood to benefit directly. Stefanik later took credit for projects funded by the bill she opposed, drawing accusations of hypocrisy from opponents.

No documented broken promises on file.

• reversal SCORE 90
  Stefanik went from calling January 6 perpetrators criminals who 'must be prosecuted to the fullest extent of the law' to labeling them 'hostages' and political prisoners. After former Rep. Liz Cheney drew attention to the original statement in January 2024, Stefanik deleted it from her congressional website along with all pre-2023 statements. Stefanik's office declined to comment on the record about the deletion.
