Nicole Malliotakis was elected to the United States House of Representatives in November 2020, defeating an incumbent Democrat by more than 18,000 votes. She currently serves as Assistant Whip for the House Republican Conference and on the House Transportation and Infrastructure and Foreign Affairs committees.
Congresswoman Malliotakis is the Ranking Member of the Subcommittee on International Development, International Organizations and Global Corporate Social Impact. She was also chosen to serve on the House Select Subcommittee on the Coronavirus Crisis.
As the representative for New York’s 11th Congressional District, Nicole is focused on government accountability and transparency, supporting law enforcement, securing our nation’s borders and combating the spread of socialism.
Prior to her election to Congress, Nicole served in the New York State Assembly for five terms and, in 2017, she became a household name as the Republican nominee for Mayor of the City of New York against incumbent Mayor Bill de Blasio. During her mayoral run, Nicole won 67% of the vote in New York’s 11th Congressional District and held de Blasio accountable for the city’s high property taxes, bloated budget and status as a sanctuary city.
In the State Assembly, Nicole was the leading voice against corrupt former Assembly Speaker Sheldon Silver and his criminal conduct. She created more transparency in state government by opening committee meetings to public scrutiny through streaming on the internet and making votes taken in committee part of the public record. Nicole also successfully sued the Port Authority of New York and New Jersey to expose records that should have been public and she was the leading proponent of property tax reform in New York City.
