I’ll keep fighting for a Long Island first approach that expands opportunity and keeps our communities strong.
Support and advance federal housing affordability efforts that strengthen local lending and help Long Island families access homeownership.

Evidence
The site's latest news listed a May 14, 2026 press release titled "Garbarino Introduces Volunteer First Responder Housing Act," describing it as legislation to support volunteer emergency responders.
The committee said support was building for its bipartisan amendment to the 21st Century ROAD to Housing Act after the House passed the package 396-13. The release said housing and banking groups viewed it as a way to strengthen community banks' role in serving local families, expand affordable homeownership, and address housing affordability.
Assessments
The claim is framed as supporting and advancing federal housing-affordability efforts tied to local lending and homeownership, not as a clearly measurable promise to enact a specific law. The evidence shows Garbarino took relevant same-term action by introducing housing-related legislation in May 2026, and a House housing package matching the claim’s themes also advanced strongly during the same period. But the record here does not show enactment of a completed housing-affordability outcome, nor does it show that Garbarino personally sponsored or materially drove the broader House package enough to credit full delivery. That supports partial credit for meaningful alignment and action, but not full delivery.
