Christopher Schmidt – Platform Overview (NY-21)
Working-Class Independent | People Over Parties

WHY I AM RUNNING:
I’m running for Congress to tackle the challenges facing NY-21 head-on. Families here are struggling with high energy bills, rising food costs, and healthcare that’s too far away or underfunded. Our roads, bridges, water systems, and broadband are outdated, while local voices are ignored by career politicians in Washington. I will fight to lower costs, support local farms, modernize infrastructure, expand rural healthcare, and hold utilities and corporations accountable—all while keeping tax dollars focused at home and ensuring that working people, not party insiders, decide our priorities. My goal is simple: practical solutions that strengthen our communities, protect our livelihoods, and put NY-21 first.
