The State of New York — Deep Blue, Deep Red: New York’s Voice in a Republican-Led House

Tom Suozzi, Mike Lawler and Dan Goldman with Seth Pinsky, moderator

Sep 26, 2025

Join New York congressmen Tom Suozzi (D-NY-3), Mike Lawler (R-NY-17) and Dan Goldman (D-NY-10) for a conversation about representing New Yorkers in the age of Trump — the opening of the fall season of The State of New York, 92NY’s signature series on the issues shaping the city and state’s future.

America is deeply divided, and a new balance of power in Washington is redefining the country’s direction. What does it mean for the future of New York? What changes to immigration policy and enforcement mean for New York’s significant immigrant population and the state’s economy? What does the “Big Beautiful Bill” mean for New Yorkers who rely on government support for food and medical care? What the polarization, not just in the halls of the Capitol, but across the state and country, mean for the future of our democracy and our democratic system? And how much influence does New York really have over the federal policies shaping its future?

Suozzi, Lawler, and Goldman, three sharply different voices from New York, grapple with these questions every day. In this urgent conversation moderated by 92NY CEO Seth Pinsky, they cut through the noise to show how decisions in Washington directly shape life here — and respond to your own questions. Don’t miss this candid, timely look at what’s at stake for every New Yorker.

This program is part of 92NY Recanati-Kaplan Talks.
This program is part of the Newmark Civic Life Series, known for conversations with leading experts exploring pro-democracy efforts at this critical moment in the US and around the world, supported by Craig Newmark Philanthropies
