The League of Conservation Voters, which advocates for environmental issues nationally and rates elected officials on how they respond to them, has given 1st District Congressman Lee Zeldin (R-Shirley) one of its lowest grades.
The group’s 2020 ratings of House of Representatives members shows Mr. Zeldin received a 24% rating, meaning on issues important to the League he had a pro-environment record only 24% of the time.
The statewide average for House members was 86%, with two-thirds of the New York delegation scoring 100%. That rating brought Mr. Zeldin to the lowest rank among the state delegation.

Jan. 6, 2021, is a day that will live in infamy in America. It will never be forgotten, any more than the 2,977 deaths on 9/11 will be forgotten.
But in this case it was not foreign terrorists who attacked us but domestic ones a mob of Americans in bright-red MAGA hats, “6 Million Wasn’t Enough” and “Camp Auschwitz” shirts, storming Capitol Hill in an attempted takeover of the legislative branch of our government.
Determined to keep their leader in power, the mob came prepared for battle. Some wore military-style assault gear. One man was photographed carrying plastic zip ties in his coat pocket, apparently hoping hostages would be taken and dragged outside for a show trial or perhaps summary execution before a red-hatted firing squad.
