Congressman Mike Lawler of New York’s 17th district, who replaced Mondaire Jones in 2023, shared insights on legislative and diplomatic endeavors through his social media posts on April 15, 2025.
In a post from early morning, Lawler highlighted his collaboration with Representative McBride on a legislative initiative, “The SAVE Our Poultry Act is about supporting practical research that protects our farmers in addressing avian influenza. It’s about safeguarding the industry, protecting jobs, and ensuring our food supply stays safe. Proud to partner with @Rep_McBride on this!” The initiative aims to bolster the poultry sector against avian influenza, protecting associated jobs and maintaining food safety.
Later in the day, Lawler reflected on international relations via a conversation with a Bahraini official. He tweeted, “I had a great discussion with Ambassador Shaikh Abdulla Al Khalifa of Bahrain on the strong U.S.-Bahrain relationship and regional developments. I appreciate the opportunity to exchange views and deepen the diplomatic ties between our countries”. This discussion underscores the emphasis on strengthening diplomatic relations between the United States and Bahrain.
In another outreach effort, Lawler drew attention to financial assistance available for taxes on the same day, “Today is tax day. If you haven’t filed yet, free options are available for filers under $84K. Learn more here: https://t.co/BPPns1Co7l” He provided guidance for those needing help managing tax obligations.
Lawler has served in the U.S. Congress, representing New York’s 17th District, since 2023. He previously served in the New York State Assembly from 2021 to 2022.
