Sean Patrick Maloney

US House New York — 17th District Democrat
Incumbent2022
Representative Sean Patrick Maloney has served the constituents of New York’s 18th Congressional District since 2012, and has always been a strong supporter of commonsense gun safety reforms. As a member of the Gun Violence Prevention Task Force, he has consistently worked to get dangerous weapons of war off of New York’s streets and has supported legislation like the Bipartisan Background Checks Act and the Enhanced Background Checks Act, which would close loopholes that allow dangerous individuals to access firearms. 

Following the tragic shooting at Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School in Parkland, Florida, Representative Maloney led a letter-writing campaign focused on highlighting the devastating impacts of gun violence on school-age children, and he delivered more than 200 letters from local students to then House Speaker Paul Ryan. He has never wavered in his pursuit to shield the children and families of the Hudson Valley from senseless violence, and his relentless advocacy for stronger safe storage laws and legislation to combat America’s rise in hate-fueled violence has laid the groundwork for a safer future for his constituents.

In 2020, Representative Maloney was selected by his peers to serve as the Chairman of the Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee. This role is responsible for supporting House incumbents in their reelection campaigns and overseeing the recruitment of new candidates to run in open seats and to challenge vulnerable Republicans across the country. Having consistently won reelection in a swing district for the past decade, we know Representative Maloney has the political acumen necessary to help elect a new generation of gun safety champions. With our majority on the line this fall, we trust that Representative Sean Patrick Maloney will steer our party to victory and set the stage for the passage of historic gun safety legislation in 2023.

We are proud to endorse Sean Patrick Maloney for the US House of Representatives.
