Today, she announced that the Republican Party chairs in all 14 counties have endorsed her for another two-year term, including Skip Draper, the Republican Party chairman in Orleans County.

“Claudia has delivered real results for our communities by leading the fight to cut taxes through President Trump’s One Big Beautiful Bill and championing strong border security policies to end the chaos created under the Biden administration,” according to a joint statement from many of the Republican leaders in the district. “Her proven conservative leadership, tireless advocacy for families, farmers, and small businesses, and her close partnership with President Trump, who has already issued his full endorsement, make her the clear choice to continue representing NY-24. We are united in our support and confident she will keep fighting for our values in Washington.

This statement was attributed to Genesee County Republican Chairman Scott German, Orleans County Republican Chairman Skip Draper, Wyoming County Republican Chairwoman Cheryl Mayer, Wayne County Republican Chairwoman Amy Schreiber, Yates County Republican Chairman Jack Prendergast, Cayuga County Republican Chairman Nate VeVone, Oswego County Republican Chairman Terry Wilbur, Seneca County Republican Chairman Tom Fox, Jefferson County Republican Chairman Donald Coon, Schuyler County Republican Chairwoman Maryann Friebis, Genesee County Conservative Chairwoman Julie Carasone, Wayne County Conservative Chairman Michael Garlock, Jefferson County Conservative Chairman Ken Parks, Oswego County Conservative Chairman Ronald Greenleaf and Cayuga County Conservative Chairman David Pappert.
