23rd congressional district

Two Democratic candidates looking to challenge Republican Nick Langworthy in the midterms for the 23rd Congressional District seat will begin collecting signatures Feb. 24 for ballot positions in the June primaries.

After more than 40 days away from Washington D.C., Republican Congressman Nick Langworthy held a virtual press conference this week ahead of a House vote to reopen the government on Wednesday. The fate of expiring Affordable Care Act tax credits for 24 million Americans remains uncertain.

Langworthy, a Republican, represents New York’s 23rd congressional district, including Tioga and Chemung counties and parts of Schuyler and Steuben counties.

Southern Tier Congressman Nick Langworthy is not hosting in-person town halls and his constituents are frustrated at their lack of access to their representative.

Some Southern Tier residents continue to gather and protest Republican proposals to cut social safety net programs.

Southern Tier Rep. Nick Langworthy was in Elmira last week to talk about the state’s immigration enforcement, sanctuary policies and the “Green Light Law”.

Southern Tier Rep. Nick Langworthy’s 2025 agenda aligns with incoming President Donald Trump’s 100-day agenda to secure America’s borders and roll back the Biden administration’s renewable energy policies.

The newly formed caucus will promote affordable, high-quality food and preventative care measures to address chronic diseases and obesity. It will also support underserved and rural communities.

Parts of the Southern Tier, in heavily red areas, held onto their Republican strongholds Tuesday evening.

Langworthy is running for reelection in the Southern Tier congressional district against his Democratic challenger, Tom Carle.
