May 22 (UPI) -- President Donald Trump will visit Rockland County, N.Y., Friday alongside Rep. Mike Lawler, R-N.Y., in his swing-district in the Hudson Valley.
The White House said Trump will speak at Rockland Community College about his economic agenda and efforts to lower costs for working families, while contrasting his tax policies with those of Democrats.
Lawler represents New York's 17th district, which voted for Vice President Kamala Harris in 2024. He is one of only nine House Republicans in a district that chose Harris, according to Ballotpedia.
Critics are speaking out against the visit, with the Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee calling Lawler a "lapdog."
