Aaron Gies for Congress

Professor, small town cheerleader, democracy advocate, candidate for Congress in NY23
Let us be honest about the moment we are living in. Powerful people are trying to roll back policies that fight racial inequality, weaken protections for LGBTQIA+ Americans, soften the language on hate symbols, and even redefine which groups qualify as domestic terrorists.

Aaron is joining Republican primary challenger Jim King at the Kenan Center for a bipartisan town hall in Lockport!

The results in Tennessee’s 7th District tell us something important about the moment we are living in. A district that has voted the same way for decades came close to choosing a new direction.

Thirty-year-olds are not “delaying adulthood.” They are doing everything right in an economy where the basics were pushed out of reach. Housing. Healthcare. Childcare. Stability.

We fix this by rebuilding the Common Good so everyone can move forward with dignity and fairness.

Our country cannot afford leaders who inflame tensions and put public servants in danger. We need calm, steady governance that protects people and gets things done for all of us.

Western New York is already facing a serious nursing shortage. Congressman Langworthy supports student loan restrictions that make it harder for future nurses to get the education they need. That means fewer providers in the clinics and hospitals that keep our communities healthy.

Music brings people together. It reminds us to slow down, listen, and find the harmony we can build when we choose connection over division. That is the spirit Aaron brings to this campaign.

Even Santa knows NY-23 deserves better.

Rep. Langworthy finally voted to #releasethefiles What changed? Just his orders. If we want safety and justice, we need a leader with integrity, not a loyal soldier for a party or a leader.

Nick Langworthy earned a 10% rating from the AFL-CIO. One of the worst in Congress. That score reflects a voting record that protects corporations and party insiders, not working families.

At our Friendsgiving event on Saturday, Aaron said what families already know. Neighbors take care of neighbors, and families feel the squeeze every day. You cannot tell people who track every grocery price that everything is fine.

A Choice That Hurts Working Families

Nick Langworthy voted for the CHOICE Arrangement Act, a bill that sounds good on paper but puts working families at risk.
November 17, 2025 at 2:17 PM
Nick Langworthy voted for the Limit, Save, Grow Act. That vote was not about policy. It was about philosophy. He chose cuts to healthcare, education, veterans’ services, and family support programs while protecting tax breaks for the wealthy.

Nick Langworthy’s record doesn’t add up.
In 2023, he voted for the REINS Act. Under the Constitution and existing law, Congress passes laws and federal agencies enact them by making rules assembled by experts and checked by oversight.
November 14, 2025 at 9:15 PM
Nick Langworthy co-sponsored the so-called “Born-Alive” Act. A bill that criminalizes doctors for making complex, heartbreaking medical decisions alongside their patients.
This bill is not about protecting life: Infanticide is already illegal.

When Beef Prices Get Political…

At our Mayville meet and greet, a voter asked if Trump really plans to set meat prices. Aaron’s answer? It’s not about socialism or capitalism. It’s about common sense.
November 12, 2025 at 4:08 PM
We had a great turnout in Mayville! Folks came not just from Mayville and Westfield, but from Jamestown, Fredonia, and even Hamburg. The energy in the room was incredible.

Today, we honor the men and women who have worn our nation’s uniform, those who stood ready to serve something larger than themselves.

Service like that reminds us what it means to belong to one another.

Public Service Starts with Showing Up.
If you or I missed 4 percent of our workdays, we’d have to answer for it.

Nick Langworthy has missed 62 out of 1,523 roll call votes in Congress - that’s 4.1%, twice the average for Congress. He refuses to hold in-person town halls. He avoids tough questions.

At the heart of my campaign is a simple idea, the Common Good. It's about shared purpose, shared dignity, shared opportunity. Every student in New York 23 deserves access to modern learning, reliable broadband training for the jobs of tomorrow.
November 9, 2025 at 4:56 PM
As education evolves, our teachers must evolve too. Tech companies, unions, and NY State are investing millions to train K-12 teachers in AI tools and curriculum. It’s a strong start, but we must ensure that all teachers in NY-23 get access, not just those in urban or well-funded districts.

This Veterans Month, we honor those who stood up for us by standing up for them.

Our veterans believed in something larger than themselves: our Constitution, community, and looking out for one another. That same spirit should guide how we serve them now.
November 7, 2025 at 2:03 PM
Reliable internet isn’t a luxury. It’s a basic educational need.

Across Upstate New York, too many families still can’t get online. In parts of Western and Northern NY, 1 in 5 households lack broadband. Among low-income families, it’s nearly 1 in 3.
