NY-17: Sean Patrick Maloney (D)

Campaign Website

The youngest of six, Sean Patrick Maloney grew up in a middle-class Irish-Catholic family. Maloney’s father, a disabled veteran, and his mother started a small business and managed to put him and his brothers through college. 

A lifetime of experience has taught Maloney how to get things done for Hudson Valley families — growing our economy, creating jobs, improving our schools, fighting the heroin epidemic, and standing up for our veterans.

Maloney later served as a senior advisor to President Bill Clinton as part of the team that balanced the budget, paid down the debt, and created more than 800,000 jobs in New York. When he left the White House, he built his own business from scratch. His company created hundreds of well-paying, New York jobs. He then served as a senior adviser to two New York governors, focusing on education and infrastructure.Maloney was elected to represent the Hudson Valley in 2012, defeating Tea Party Congresswoman Nan Hayworth. Maloney quickly built a reputation for working across party lines to invest in and improve our infrastructure, strengthen the health and financial security of America’s retirees, and keep the United States safe and free. He successfully won tax relief for small businesses in the Hudson Valley that bring good jobs to our area, and brought investments to our communities that improve schools, make highways and Metro North safer and more reliable, and hire more police and firefighters and give them the resources they need to keep people safe.
