About Lee Zeldin

Lee Zeldin was born and raised on Long Island. He grew up in Suffolk County and graduated from William Floyd High School in Mastic Beach, where his identical twin daughters attend school today. He earned his bachelor’s degree from the State University of New York at Albany and then his law degree from Albany Law School, becoming New York’s youngest attorney at the time at the age of 23.

Lee spent four years on Active Duty with the U.S. Army after completing ROTC and served in different capacities, including as a Military Intelligence Officer, Prosecutor, and Military Magistrate. In the summer of 2006, while assigned to the Army’s elite 82nd Airborne Division, Lee deployed to Iraq with an infantry battalion of fellow paratroopers in support of Operation Iraqi Freedom.

In 2007, Lee returned to Suffolk County with his family. It was at this time that Lee transitioned from Active Duty to the Army Reserve, where he currently serves with the rank of Lieutenant Colonel.

In 2008, Lee established a successful law practice in Smithtown, NY. Elected to the New York State Senate two years later, in 2010, Lee’s been working hard every day since to keep the promises he made to the hard-working families he represents.

Lee was then elected to the United States Congress in 2014, representing New York’s First Congressional District, and has now won seven consecutive races since 2010 in purple NYC suburban districts, unseating two Democrat incumbents along the way. In Congress, Lee quickly became a leading voice in America on top local, domestic and foreign policy issues: 

• Combating and defeating MS-13 on Long Island, leading the charge in New York and nationally against cashless bail, opposing all efforts to defund, dismantle or abolish police, and providing law enforcement the resources they need to fight gang violence and other crimes in our communities, including bulletproof vests.

• Securing the repeal of many harmful, job killing regulations, with the Economic Growth, Regulatory Relief, and Consumer Protection Act, and many other initiatives, to improve our business climate and grow our economy. 

• Leading the charge to end all COVID mandates. 

• Saving Plum Island, by securing the repeal of a 2008 federal law requiring the island to be sold off to the highest bidder. 

• Delivering a $1.5 billion boost in border security resources, helping to choke off the flow of illegal migration across our borders. 

• Introducing and passing into law his Adult Day Health Care legislation for disabled veterans and opening a new health care clinic for East End veterans.

• Delivering the Electron Ion Collider “discovery machine” to Brookhaven National Lab that will enable advancements in national security, medical and cancer research, astrophysics, and more and create an extensive number of jobs. 

• Advancing his law enforcement bill of rights, which would help ensure that our great law enforcement officers and the people they serve are protected.

• Championing the expansion of the Dwyer Program nationally, to help all of our nation’s veterans access the resources they need.

• Co-Chairing the Long Island Sound Caucus and advancing top priorities for the Long Island Sound Program, National Estuary Program and SeaGrant.

• Co-chairing, as one of only two Jewish Republicans in Congress, the House Republican Israel Caucus, and serving on the House Foreign Affairs Committee and Financial Services Committee, as well as four House Subcommittees.

• Successfully resolving over 17,000 constituent cases in favor of his constituents.

NEW YORK – Today, the Nassau County Municipal Police Chiefs Association (NCMPCA) endorsed Congressman Lee Zeldin (R, NY-1), the Republican Party and Conservative Party candidate for Governor.

“When many politicians abandoned public safety to score political points, you doubled down on your support of the members of law enforcement and the great work they do every single day. You had the courage to stand up to the anti-police radicals that called for the defunding of police, knowing such dangerous rhetoric would compromise public safety. You have been a fierce critic of the disastrous bail reform responsible for protecting criminals and abandoning victims and given a clear indication of your willingness to repeal it,” said Robert Glaser, President of NCMPCA.

“Your choice for Lieutenant Governor, retired NYPD Deputy Inspector Alison Esposito is a testament to your dedication to public safety. Alison Esposito is a respected and experienced leader within the NYPD. Her knowledge and understanding of public safety will help law enforcement provide the protections the residents of New York deserve. When members of law enforcement leave their families every day to serve the people of New York State, they need to know that someone has their back. Your unwavering support has shown that you have their back,” continued Robert Glaser.
