Today, Congresswoman-elect Stefanik announced a bi-partisan team of community leaders from across the vast 21st Congressional District who will advise her on the important components of the transition process over the next several months. This group will help identify key issues, priorities and personnel across the North Country to help ensure a seamless transition that reflects the interests from across the District.
"I am so honored that these prominent leaders from across the District will help us get off to a strong start in serving the hardworking residents of the 21st District," said Rep.-elect Stefanik. "I am committed to working with anyone, across the district and in Washington, to make sure the issues that are important to the residents in the North Country are heard in Washington."
The first organizational call for the transition team will occur in the next week. It follows a week of orientation meetings where the Congresswoman-elect was briefed on all elements of setting up her new office. She also met with numerous New York representatives as well as U.S. Senators Schumer and Gillibrand.
