On May 19, 2025, Congressman Lawler expressed gratitude towards emergency medical services during EMS Week. He stated: “When you call 911, EMS teams are the first to deliver life-saving care. This EMS Week, I want to thank the paramedics, EMTs, dispatchers, ER nurses, doctors, and first responders who serve our communities.”
Later that day, he attended a Transportation Labor Meet & Greet event. He remarked: “Great to stop by the TTD Transportation Labor Meet & Greet and catch up with the folks who keep our country moving. From our Metro-North crews to freight rail workers and transit professionals, transportation workers are essential to daily life in NY-17.”
On May 20, 2025, Congressman Lawler commented on a decision involving high-profile figures such as President Biden and Elon Musk. He tweeted: “Grateful to see @POTUS, @SecDef, and @elonmusk put an end to the inexcusable DOD cat experiments. This abuse of taxpayer dollars and animals never should’ve started.”
