U.S. Representative Nicole Malliotakis, who represents New York’s 11th district in Congress, posted a series of statements on her official X account between February 23 and February 24, 2026. The posts addressed topics ranging from local community engagement to national security and law enforcement.

On February 23, Malliotakis encouraged participation in a local educational initiative: “A snow day is the perfect time to submit your entry for our Presidents Day Essay Contest — the deadline is this Friday!” (posted on February 23, 2026).

Later that day, she commented on federal government operations, specifically funding for the Department of Homeland Security: “Keeping @DHSgov shut down puts our national security at risk. It’s time to fund the department so critical agencies like our @USCG, @fema, and @TSA are fully funded.” (posted on February 23, 2026).

On February 24, Malliotakis responded to an incident involving the New York Police Department: “This is disgraceful. @NYCMayor and every elected official in our city should denounce this juvenile attack on our #NYPD. Back the blue and hold those who disrespect them accountable.” (posted on February 24, 2026).

Malliotakis has represented New York’s 11th district in Congress since defeating Max Rose in 2021. She previously served as a member of the New York State Assembly from 2011 to 2021. Born in New York City in 1980 and currently residing in Staten Island, Malliotakis holds degrees from Seton Hall University and Wagner College.
