2022 battleground election

U.S. Rep. Jerry Nadler defeated U.S. Rep. Carolyn Maloney , Suraj Patel , and Ashmi Sheth in the Democratic primary for New York's 12th Congressional District on August 23, 2022. Heading into the primary, Maloney, Nadler, and Patel led in endorsements , funding , and media attention. [5] [6] [7]

This race was one of six primaries featuring two U.S. House incumbents as a result of congressional redistricting . Heading into the election, Maloney represented the old 12th District and Nadler represented the old 10th District. According to data from Daily Kos , Maloney represented 61% of the redrawn 12th District's population and Nadler represented 39%. [8]

Both Nadler and Maloney were first elected in 1992. As of the 2022 primary, Nadler chaired the Judiciary Committee and Maloney chaired the Oversight and Reform Committee. Both were members of the Congressional Progressive Caucus and campaigned as progressives. [9] [10] [11]

The New York Times' Nicholas Fandos wrote of the primary, "With overwhelmingly similar views, the candidates ... toiled through the summer to differentiate themselves." Fandos said that Nadler "tried to claim the progressive mantle and highlighted his status as the city’s last remaining Jewish congressman," Maloney's campaign "centered on women — both their electoral potential to sway the outcome and the importance of protecting one of their own," and Patel "[targeted] younger voters, stressing the need for generational change against two septuagenarians[.]" [12]

According to HuffPost' s Daniel Marans, Nadler "argued that he [was] more progressive than Maloney, noting his support for the Iran nuclear agreement and opposition to the Iraq War," Maloney "[argued] that she [was] best-equipped to confront the country’s challenges following the Supreme Court decision overturning a federal right to abortion," and Patel's "main focus ... [was] in appealing to voters interested in a new generation of leadership, especially people living in parts of Manhattan that neither Maloney nor Nadler [represented]." [6]

Nadler said he had been a "relentless defender of our country’s democracy from leading two impeachment efforts against Donald Trump to defending our Constitution’s fundamental promise of equality for all, and proudly standing on the front lines in the fight for LGBTQ rights, women’s rights, racial justice, and the First Amendment rights guaranteeing freedom of expression and religion." [13] U.S. Sen. Majority Leader Chuck Schumer (D-N.Y.), Sen. Elizabeth Warren (D-Mass.), and The New York Times editorial board endorsed Nadler.

Maloney said her record included "fostering lasting bipartisan agreement" and "promoting equality, protecting consumers, building infrastructure that serves New Yorkers and the region, extending and protecting healthcare coverage for all, protecting the environment, and working to understand and find solutions for everyday issues like affordable housing and small business support." [11] The Congressional Progressive Caucus PAC , EMILY's List , and the American Federation of Government Employees endorsed Maloney.

Patel, an attorney, was a campaign staffer for Barack Obama 's presidential campaigns. [14] Patel challenged Maloney in 2018 and 2020 . In 2018, Maloney defeated Patel 60% to 40%. In 2020, Maloney defeated Patel 43% to 39% in a four-candidate race.

Patel said, "1990s politicians have lost every major battle to [Republican Senate Majority Leader] Mitch McConnell - from climate action to guns and abortion. ... To win our country back, we need new messengers to make a new case for our values." [15] 2020 Democratic presidential candidate Andrew Yang , Indian American Impact, and New York Assemblymember Khaleel Anderson (D) endorsed Patel.

Polls are conducted with a variety of methodologies and have margins of error or credibility intervals . [16] The Pew Research Center wrote, "A margin of error of plus or minus 3 percentage points at the 95% confidence level means that if we fielded the same survey 100 times, we would expect the result to be within 3 percentage points of the true population value 95 of those times."

Campaign website

Maloney's campaign website stated the following: [52]

“ | Healthcare Healthcare is a human right Healthcare touches every part of our lives, and must be defended and expanded. Carolyn has been a champion for all facets of American healthcare, from voting to fund universal vaccination programs to fighting to protect reproductive healthcare, to defending the ACA from GOP sabotage, and ensuring pre-existing condition protections for all Americans. During the COVID-19 crisis, she has called for free testing, treatment, and vaccinations for all, and is holding pharmaceutical companies accountable in her roles as both the Chairwoman of the House Committee on Oversight and Reform and on the Select Subcommittee on the Coronavirus Crisis. Read More Education The best investment in our future Carolyn Maloney started her career working as an ESL teacher with children in East Harlem. When the program was cut, her colleagues elected her to lobby for its restoration - and she won. Carolyn advocates with that same passion for students and teachers today and has carried her commitment to students throughout her career. She remains steadfast in her mission of increasing access to education, from advocating for the elimination of student debt to increasing the number of public schools in New York City. Read More Gun Control Inaction on common sense gun control is literally killing Americans As the proud owner of a lifetime “F” from the NRA, Carolyn has worked to ban assault weapons, high capacity magazines, and bump stocks, worked with the NY-12 community and her colleagues in government to end gun violence, held town halls on gun violence and attended rallies to end gun violence - and her work has earned her 2020 endorsements from Everytown for Gun Safety and Brady United Against Gun Violence. Read More Government Oversight Of the people. By the people. For the people. Government is supposed to work for us - and Carolyn Maloney has spent her career making sure it does. Now, as the first woman to chair the powerful House Committee on Oversight and Reform, she's doing even more to curb government abuse - including taking on the administration. Read More Women's Rights Equality can't wait Carolyn is a nationally-recognized leader in women's rights, passing legislation to preserve and promote the issues that matter most to women. She has made advocating for women's rights a central point of her illustrious career and sponsored or supported a myriad of groundbreaking legislation. Additionally, Carolyn has long-fought to build a Women's National History Museum on the National Mall to recognize the rich history of female American achievement and the Smithsonian Women’s History Museum Act (H.R. 1980) was just passed by the house. Her work on women’s rights has earned her the endorsements of Planned Parenthood Action Fund, the National Women’s Political Caucus, NARAL Pro-Choice America, the National Organization of Women Political Action Committee, and Off the Sidelines PAC. Read More Working Families Policies that support the working and middle class Our nation’s families are facing more challenges than ever and Carolyn has been a staunch ally in preserving and expanding the protections for working families since co-sponsoring the pioneering Family and Medical Leave Act of 1993 (H.R. 1). She has since sponsored a variety of bills that would expand on the original legislation including the Family and Medical Leave Enhancement Act of 2016 (H.R. 5518) to ensure that more workers are covered. Read More Affordable Housing Everyone needs a place to live. Housing is a necessity, and in NY-12, it's increasingly unaffordable. Whether advocating for NYCHA tenants, creating senior housing, or helping renters negotiate agreements with major landlords, Carolyn Maloney has worked hard to keep rents down and expand affordable housing options in the district. In the wake of the COVID-19 pandemic, Carolyn has worked to ensure that residents are a protected priority and has co-sponsored a number of relevant bills. Read More LGBT Rights Equal means equal Since her early days on City Council, Carolyn Maloney has fought to uplift underserved and marginalized communities through advocacy, legislation, and leadership. As a member of the Congressional LGBT Caucus, she has pushed to pass legislation that ensures that the LGBT community is treated equally under the law and protected from discrimination. Read More The Environment We need a Green New Deal - and Carolyn's an original cosponsor. As an original co-sponsor on the Green New Deal, Carolyn has continuously pushed bold and transformative change to help save our planet from the climate crisis. Read More Infrastructure Bringing our transit into the 21st century Carolyn Maloney has brought over $10 billion back to New York's 12th district for infrastructure that creates good jobs. Her projects have transformed the way New Yorkers move around, not just in NY-12, but in the entire New York region. Read More Foreign Policy & National Security America must lead by example Having served NY-12 through the worst terrorist attack in our nation’s history, Carolyn has a deep understanding of the government’s responsibility when it comes to keeping Americans safe. She has been a voice for American leadership around the globe, including a strong state department, support for Israel, defending against foreign interference in our democracy, and re-establishing Congress’ authority to declare war. Read More Racial Justice We must address the systemic inequality and racism in our country. As a senior member of the House Financial Services committee, the Vice Chair of the Joint Economic Committee, and now the Chairwoman of the House Committee on Oversight and Reform, Carolyn has focused on expanding access to financial services, sponsoring and co-sponsoring civil rights legislation, increasing diversity in high-paying economic sectors, and ending abuses of power by state governments and private industry. She is also supporting numerous CBC-led legislative efforts to end police brutality and reform our broken criminal justice system. Read More The Economy It has to work for everyone As the former Chair of the Joint Economic Committee, and current Ranking Member, Carolyn Maloney has fought to ensure that every American sees the benefits of the world’s largest economy. She has been active in highlighting and reducing income inequality by demanding the Bureau of Economic Analysis to report who's benefiting from our growing GDP and supporting a myriad of legislation aimed at protecting individuals including her landmark 2009 Credit CARD Act. Additionally, Carolyn has been a leading proponent of a $15 federal minimum wage, a champion of fair tax laws, and an advocate for small businesses. Read More Senior Issues Helping seniors thrive Too many seniors are in vulnerable positions, and all have been disproportionately affected by COVID-19. As a staunch advocate for both Medicare and Social Security, Carolyn has continuously supported legislation to improve the lives of seniors in New York and beyond. Read More Immigration We need comprehensive immigration reform Our immigration system has been broken for far too long, and recent actions by the administration show that without Congressional action, the situation will continue to deteriorate. Carolyn vehemently opposed the construction of President Trump’s southern border wall and has pushed comprehensive immigration reform to allow more opportunities for those who wish to pursue a better life in America. Read More New York City Improving the lives of everyday New Yorkers From securing federal funding for necessary infrastructure projects to ensuring New Yorkers receive financial coronavirus relief, Carolyn has always had the backs of her constituents. Read More Cannabis Legalization, reducing harm, creating jobs and promoting consumer safety Carolyn has been an advocate for cannabis legalization and to protect legal cannabis businesses, earning her a 100% rating from the National Cannabis Industry Association. She has voted in favor of reducing restrictions on marijuana beginning with the 2005 Medical Marijuana Use Amendment (H. Amdt. 272), which prohibited the Department of Justice from arresting and prosecuting those involved in the medical marijuana industry in states where it was legal. Read More Disability Rights & Accessibility Prioritizing accessibility and disability rights Carolyn has always stood alongside the disability community and has fought to ensure that their rights are protected in NY-12 and around the nation. She has co-sponsored legislation to benefit communities around the country and pressured MTA leadership to make the subway system more accessible. She has been endorsed by the 504 Democratic club. Read more Veterans Fighting for those who fight for us. Our government must honor the debt it owes those who rush into danger to defend our nation.

Bowe Bergdahl . [156] [157] The House voted 249-163 for resolution, with all Republicans and 22 Democrats supporting the bill. Fourteen Democrats and five Republicans did not vote on the resolution, while all other Democrats opposed its passage. [157] Maloney did not vote on the resolution. [156] [157] NDAA Maloney voted in support of HR 1960 - the National Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2014. The bill passed the House on June 14, 2013, with a vote of 315 - 108. Both parties were somewhat divided on the vote. [158] DHS Appropriations Maloney voted in opposition of HR 2217 - the DHS Appropriations Act of 2014. The bill passed the House on June 6, 2013, with a vote of 245 - 182 and was largely along party lines. [158] Keystone Pipeline Amendment Maloney voted in favor of House Amendment 69, which would have amended HR 3 to "require that the Pipeline and Hazardous Materials Safety Administration, in consultation with the Department of Homeland Security, conduct a study of the vulnerabilities of the Keystone XL pipeline to a terrorist attack and certify that necessary protections have been put in place." The amendment failed on May 22, 2013, with a vote of 176 - 239 and was largely along party lines. [158] CISPA (2013) Maloney voted in opposition of HR 624 - the CISPA (2013). The bill passed the House on April 18, 2013, with a vote of 288 - 127. The bill permitted federal intelligence agencies to share cybersecurity intelligence and information with private entities and utilities. [159] The bill was largely supported by Republicans, but divided the Democratic Party. [158] Economy Farm Bill See also: United States Farm Bill 2013 Maloney voted against the Farm Bill on July 11, 2013. The bill passed in a 216-208 vote. [160] The bill passed included farm policy, but did not include food stamps. [161] King Amendment Maloney signed a letter sent to Collin Peterson in August 2013, asking him to keep Steve King 's amendment out of the final Farm Bill. [162] The "Protect Interstate Commerce Act" amendment prevents states from applying their own laws on agricultural products to agricultural products from another state. [163] King introduced the amendment in response to a law in California, requiring a larger size cage for egg-producing chickens. King represents Iowa, which is a large egg producer. Government shutdown See also: United States budget debate, 2013 On September 30, 2013, the House passed a final stopgap spending bill before the shutdown went into effect. The bill included a one-year delay of the Affordable Care Act's individual mandate and would have also stripped the bill of federal subsidies for congressional members and staff. It passed through the House with a vote of 228-201. [164] At 1 a.m. on October 1, 2013, one hour after the shutdown officially began, the House voted to move forward with going to a conference. In short order, Sen. Harry Reid rejected the call to conference. [165] Maloney voted against the stopgap spending bill that would have delayed the individual mandate. [164] The shutdown ended on October 16, 2013, when the House took a vote on HR 2775 after it was approved by the Senate . The bill to reopen the government lifted the $16.7 trillion debt limit and funded the government through January 15, 2014. Federal employees also received retroactive pay for the shutdown period. The only concession made by Senate Democrats was to require income verification for Obamacare subsidies. [166] The House passed the legislation shortly after the Senate, by a vote of 285-144, with all 144 votes against the legislation coming from Republican members. Maloney voted for HR 2775. [167] Immigration Morton Memos Prohibition Maloney voted against House Amendment 136 - Prohibits the Enforcement of the Immigration Executive Order. The amendment was adopted by the House on June 6, 2013, with a vote of 224 - 201. The purpose of the amendment as stated on the official text is to "prohibit the use of funds to finalize, implement, administer, or enforce the Morton Memos." These memos would have granted administrative amnesty to certain individuals residing in the United States without legal status. [168] The vote largely followed party lines. [169] Healthcare Repealing Obamacare Maloney has voted against all attempts to repeal or delay the implementation of the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act. [170] Social issues Abortion Maloney voted against HR 1797 - Pain-Capable Unborn Child Protection Act. The resolution passed the House on June 18, 2013, with a vote of 228 - 196. The purpose of the bill was to ban abortions that would take place 20 or more weeks after fertilization. [171] Previous congressional sessions Fiscal Cliff Maloney voted for the fiscal cliff compromise bill, which made permanent most of the Bush tax cuts originally passed in 2001 and 2003 while also raising tax rates on the highest income levels. She was 1 of 172 Democrats that voted in favor of the bill. The bill was passed in the House by a 257 - 167 vote on January 1, 2013. [172]

Issues

American response in Syria

See also: United States involvement in Syria

On August 29, 2013, 53 House Democrats signed a letter written by California Rep. Barbara Lee that called for a congressional resolution on strikes and cautioned that the situation in Syria "should not draw us into an unwise war—especially without adhering to our constitutional requirements." [173] [174] The letter also called on the Obama administration to work with the U.N. Security Council “to build international consensus” condemning the alleged use of chemical weapons. Maloney was one of the 53 Democrats in the House to sign the letter. [173] [174]

Personal Gain Index

See also: Personal Gain Index (U.S. Congress)

The Personal Gain Index (U.S. Congress) is a two-part measurement that illustrates the extent to which members of the U.S. Congress have prospered during their tenure as public servants. It consists of two different metrics:

PGI: Change in net worth

See also: Changes in Net Worth of U.S. Senators and Representatives (Personal Gain Index) and Net worth of United States Senators and Representatives

Based on congressional financial disclosure forms and calculations made available by OpenSecrets.org , Maloney's net worth as of 2012 was estimated between $7,862,020 and $48,830,996. That averages to $28,346,508 , which is higher than the average net worth of Democratic representatives in 2012 of $5,700,168.36. Maloney ranked as the 23rd most wealthy representative in 2012. [191] Between 2004 and 2012, Maloney's calculated net worth [192] increased by an average of 2 percent per year. Between 2004 and 2012, the average annual percentage increase for a member of Congress was 15.4 percent. [193]

Carolyn Maloney Yearly Net Worth
Year | Average Net Worth
2004 | $24,816,006
2012 | $28,346,508.00
Growth from 2004 to 2012: | 14%
Average annual growth: | 2% [194]
Comparatively, the American citizen experienced a median yearly decline in net worth of -0.94% . [195]

The data used to calculate changes in net worth may include changes resulting from assets gained through marriage, inheritance, changes in family estates and/or trusts, changes in family business ownership, and many other variables unrelated to a member's behavior in Congress.

PGI: Donation Concentration Metric

See also: The Donation Concentration Metric (U.S. Congress Personal Gain Index)

Filings required by the Federal Election Commission report on the industries that give to each candidate. Using campaign filings and information calculated by OpenSecrets.org , Ballotpedia calculated the percentage of donations by industry received by each incumbent over the course of his or her career (or 1989 and later, if elected prior to 1988). Maloney received the most donations from individuals and PACs employed by the Securities & Investment industry.

From 1991-2014, 31.5 percent of Maloney's career contributions came from the top five industries as listed below. [196]
