Rep. Tom Suozzi, D-N.Y., has emerged as one of the favorite representatives of the centrist faction of the Democratic Party after winning in a suburban district on Long Island that President Donald Trump carried in 2024.
After the election, Suozzi criticized Vice President Kamala Harris’s campaign for failing to respond to attack ads from the Trump campaign on trans women participating in women's sports, which itself drew criticism from Democrats and LGBTQ+ advocates.
