What's the common good? Every family deserves a doctor. A good life should be affordable. Corruption is bipartisan: we need new laws to stop it. I'm running for YOU. Washington has enough lawyers and executives. Early voting starts June 13 and Election Day is June 23rd. Don't forget to vote!

This reconciliation bill is crazy. Gold ballrooms and strip mall prison camps are not important. Making a good life affordable is! There is an important primary on June 23. Early voting starts June 13! Vote for me and let’s put the common good back at the center of our politics.

Our campaign to reclaim the common good is continuing to gain momentum. I'm grateful for the organizations that have endorsed me & share the commitment to making a good life affordable for everyone. These groups show up when their communities need them to & I will proudly show up with them, for you.

Public Health Week ends with a basic idea: Your health should not depend on your income or where you live. Across NY-23, access, cost, and infrastructure all shape whether people get care. That is something we can fix.

After following the coverage of Trump's Iran ultimatum all day, my team and I are tired. We're relieved, but there's no telling what will happen next. We need accountability and an end to this chaos. #commongood

This campaign is focused on what actually improves people’s lives. Fixing what is broken. Lowering costs. Investing in the things we all rely on. That is the Common Good. And it is how we make a good life affordable again.

What does the Common Good look like? Practical. Inclusive. Better for the whole community. Watch. Comment. Like & Share. Be part of the conversation. #AaronForNY23 #NY23 #CommonGood #Infrastructure

Today is World Autism Awareness and Acceptance Day. Awareness is not enough. Families need real support. Families are facing cuts to early intervention, school support, and Medicaid. That is not acceptable. #WorldAutismAwarenessDay #AutismAcceptance #DisabilityRights

No one should have to lose everything just to afford care. When I talk about affordability for families in NY-23, this is what I mean. #aaronforny23 #wny #ny23 #commongood #affordabilitycrisis #medicaldebt #healthcarereform

Running for Congress means asking people for help. A lot. Sometimes, while making coffee. Sometimes, while folding laundry. Sometimes, while trying to stay awake on a treadmill. But every single conversation matters.

Democracy runs on coffee, clipboards, and conversations. This weekend we’re petitioning in Apalachin and Watkins Glen and on Monday we will be at another bipartisan town hall where neighbors can ask questions and talk about the issues that matter.

On #InternationalWomensDay we recognize the women who shape our communities across the Southern Tier and Western New York. Farmers. Nurses. Teachers. Veterans. Small business owners. Public servants. They strengthen our families and our economy every day.

The SAVE Act could block millions of Americans from registering to vote by requiring documents many people don’t have. Voter fraud is already extremely rare, but the burden would fall hardest on rural residents, seniors, working families, & married women whose names have changed.

Across the district, county committees are excited to start ballot petitioning in less than two weeks! I got our beautiful new palm cards on Friday. After packing up my boxes, I spent my Valentine’s Day in the car delivering boxes.

Threats are wrong. Full stop. You and I can oppose Nick Langworthy on policy and still choose dignity, restraint, and real civic action. That is how change happens in NY-23. #aaronforny23 #ny23 #wny #CommonGood #NickLangworthy #NoPoliticalViolence #PublicService

Statement from Aaron Gies, Candidate for Congress in New York’s 23rd District, on the killing of Renee Nicole Good in Minnesota.

The Office of Personnel Management says the federal workforce is “leaner and more effective.” What they do not say is who pays the price. In NY-23, Social Security, veterans' care, and basic services are lifelines. Cut staff. Call it efficiency. Ignore the human cost.

If I am elected in 2026, my job will not begin in January 2027. It begins now. The biggest decisions in Congress are made before the cameras turn on. Before the votes. Before people realize what is at stake. I believe leadership means preparation...
