I am honored to be here today with my House Republican colleagues. Today’s historic Supreme Court decision is a victory for the sanctity of life, it will save countless innocent children.
House Republicans are incredibly grateful for the pro-life movement’s tireless efforts for decades leading to this day to give a voice to the voiceless and protect our most vulnerable – unborn babies.
As a new mom, I know that there is nothing more extraordinary than the miracle of life. Hearing Sam’s heartbeat for the first time was the greatest blessing and gift for our family. And I stand unified with my Republican colleagues in protecting and promoting the right to life.

Updated policy offers more opportunities for visitation while balancing patient, staff safety
PLATTSBURGH, NY (6/23/2022) – Visitors and support people can now visit loved ones from 8 a.m. to 8 p.m., seven days a week at The University of Vermont Health Network-Champlain Valley Physicians Hospital (CVPH) as part of a revised welcoming policy.
Other highlights of the policy revisions include:
- Inpatient Child and Adolescent and Adult Psychiatry units no longer require support persons to be vaccinated against COVID-19. However, visitation hours remain 2 to 6 p.m. daily.
- Emergency Department (ED) patients undergoing a crisis evaluation or treatment for intoxication can have one support person with limitations on a case-by-case basis.
- Emergency Department patients who are COVID-19-positive, suspected of having COVID-19 or are under quarantine are allowed one designated support person for the duration of the patient’s stay in the ED. These support persons must be vaccinated against COVID-19.
In keeping with New York State Department of Health (NYSDOH) regulations related to COVID-19, everyone entering CVPH facilities must wear a surgical/procedural mask that covers the nose and mouth for the entire time spent in the buildings. Masks will be offered to folks who do not have one. Individuals visiting a patient who is COVID-19 positive, suspected of having COVID-19 or under quarantine must wear an N95 mask/respirator, protective eye wear, gown and gloves as provided by the hospital for the duration of their stay and be vaccinated.
Hospital officials are thrilled to be able to expand visitation hours, calling out the many contributions family and friends make to patients’ health and wellbeing, and adding that they are grateful for the public’s continued support in limiting the spread of COVID-19. More information on visitation at CVPH is available at:UVMHealth.org/CVPHVisitation.

From the office of Congresswoman Elise Stefanik |
| Washington, D.C. – Congresswoman Elise Stefanik announced she plans to vote against Senate gun control bill. “I will continue to stand up for Second Amendment rights against this legislation that shreds the Constitutional rights of law-abiding Americans with no effect on deterring criminals who do not follow the law when obtaining firearms. This bill contains unconstitutional gun control provisions and allows the implementation of red flag laws that take away due process rights. It would restrict men and women who are able to serve in our military from purchasing a firearm and would strip the Constitutional rights of gun owners by broadening the scope of punishment for even nonviolent misdemeanors. As this blatant government overreach seeks to make gun owners second-class citizens, I will continue to stand up for the Constitution and push for solutions, including advocating for increased mental health resources across the country.” |
