Trump to visit Fort Drum Monday to sign "National Defense Authorization Act" [View all]

Cult45 member and Paul Ryan protege, Congresswoman Stefanik will be there and I'm really hoping it hurts her chances for re-election.

Press release:

August 7, 2018 Press Release
Jefferson County, NY – Today, Congresswoman Elise Stefanik (R-NY-21) issued the following statement:

“I am honored that President Trump has accepted my invitation to visit Fort Drum and the brave men and women of the 10th Mountain Division on Monday,” said Congresswoman Stefanik. “As a Member of the House Armed Services Committee and the Chair of the Subcommittee on Emerging Threats and Capabilities, I am honored that the President will sign the historic National Defense Authorization Act in our district at Fort Drum. I am proud of the partnership with this Administration to begin rebuilding our military and the President’s visit is an important opportunity to highlight this achievement and to thank our men and women in uniform for their service. I look forward to welcoming President Trump to Fort Drum and continuing to work to ensure our troops have the resources they need to keep us safe.”

In March, Congresswoman Stefanik wrote a letter to President Trump inviting him to Fort Drum.
