This week on the Rivertowns Dispatch Podcast we spoke with Cait Conley, the Democratic candidate for New York's 17th Congressional district. Tarrytown and Sleepy Hollow will soon be voting for their representative in New York's 17th District, which is one of the most hotly contested races in the country. We have also invited Congressman Mike Lawler onto the program and although his campaign has not yet made him available as of the time of posting this episode we still hope to be able to present you with an interview with him in the near future. We discussed how she would address affordability challenges in our community, what she learned from serving in the military in multiple war zones, and her views on data centers.
