联邦众议员迈克·劳勒（纽约州共和党）于周三晚间与民主党对手凯特·康利展开了一场时长一小时的辩论，距离选举日不到三周，整场辩论充斥着打断和激烈的指责。
劳勒正争取连任，第三次出任纽约州第17国会选区众议员。该选区位于纽约市郊区，政治立场温和，可能决定唐纳德·特朗普总统任期最后几年众议院的控制权归属。
劳ler指责康利歪曲了他的投票记录、特朗普的《宏伟美好法案》以及她本人在移民执法方面的立场。与此同时，康利试图将劳勒描绘成特朗普的追随者，称其将华盛顿共和党人的需求置于选区民众之上。
双方最激烈的交锋发生在移民议题上，主持人提及上周纽约市发生的美国移民海关执法局（ICE）特工枪击一名非法移民事件，当时该男子5岁的孩子就在车内。

“我认为边境安全就是国家安全，我们确实需要移民执法，确保暴力罪犯、贩毒 cartel、人口贩子和恐怖组织不会进入我们的社区，并将他们驱逐出境，”康利说道。
“但我们现在看到的移民海关执法局的行为正构成公共安全隐患。正如你所说，上周他们朝一辆载有5岁儿童的汽车开枪。作为一名执法人员，我可以告诉你，你不允许做出这种行为。”

然而，劳勒指出，该男子有漫长的犯罪前科，在一些人眼中是社区的危险分子。他还辩称，如果当地执法部门没有被纽约州的庇护法律禁止将其移交移民海关执法局，这起枪击事件本不会发生。
他表示，康利“支持将纽约打造为庇护州，禁止当地执法部门与联邦移民官员合作”。

随后，劳勒将话题转向谢里丹·戈尔曼——来自其选区的一名大学生，今年早些时候在芝加哥校园附近与朋友外出时遇害。被控杀害她的非法移民此前曾因入店行窃被起诉，但芝加哥的庇护法律阻止当地执法部门将其移交移民海关执法局。

康利将戈尔曼的死称为“令人发指的罪行”，并反复指出案件发生在芝加哥。
劳勒多次试图插话，称这起案件“本可以避免”，愤怒的康利随即回应：“能不能让我把话说完？”
“我确实支持联邦特工和联邦执法部门、联邦移民执法部门，确保我们驱逐暴力犯罪分子，”她说道。

但劳勒随后辩称，康利对庇护政策的支持与此相悖。
“如果你认为他因入店行窃被捕时就应该被驱逐，那就应该将他移交移民海关执法局。根据你支持的新法律，他不会被移交移民海关执法局，而是会在无保释金的情况下被释放，”劳勒说道。
这引发主持人介入，告诉劳勒本次辩论没有“交叉盘问环节”。
辩论的其他环节中，劳勒指责康利“简直就是在撒谎”，称劳勒“100%的时间都投特朗普的票”。

“我被评为本党团中第三大独立派议员。我曾在诸多议题上与总统持不同意见，包括取消州和地方税抵扣上限、延长海地临时保护身份、不顾他的反对通过ACA（奥巴马医改）增强保费税收抵免延期法案，”劳勒说道。
辩论早期，康利试图指责劳勒在《宏伟美好法案》中支持为建设数据中心的企业提供税收减免。

劳勒反驳道：“我知道你刚从弗吉尼亚搬来，所以很难理解当地社区，但事实是……你提到的《工薪家庭减税法案》中的条款，是为全美所有企业提供800亿美元的全额费用扣除，用于厂房、物业和设备的支出。”
“你是反对哈德逊谷的小企业能够扣除其厂房、物业和设备支出并雇佣更多员工吗？你对此的攻击毫无根据。你显然不了解这项税收法案的实际内容。而问题的一部分在于你根本不缴纳财产税。”

辩论期间虽充满戏剧性，但也不乏礼貌时刻。
两位候选人在激烈的辩论结束后握手，并感谢对方的参与。劳勒还感谢了康利的军旅生涯。
该选区对明年众议院的控制权争夺至关重要。劳勒是三位赢得2024年前副总统卡玛拉·哈里斯也获胜的选区的众议院共和党议员之一。
在预计对共和党不利的选举中，双方都已投入数百万美元用于这场竞选。

Rep. Mike Lawler, R-N.Y., faced off against Democrat opponent Cait Conley Wednesday night in a one-hour debate filled with interruptions and fiery accusations less than three weeks before Election Day.
Lawler is vying for a third term representing New York’s 17th Congressional District, a politically moderate area in the New York City suburbs that could decide the fate of who controls the House of Representatives for the final years of President Donald Trump’s term.
Lawler called out Conley for misrepresenting his voting record, Trump’s One Big Beautiful Bill Act and her own stance on immigration enforcement. Conley, meanwhile, tried to paint Lawler as a Trump acolyte who put the needs of Washington Republicans ahead of the people of his district.
Their most heated clashes came on the immigration front, when the moderator referenced the recent shooting of an illegal immigrant by U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) agents last week in New York City while the man’s 5-year-old child was in the car.

“I believe that border security is national security and that we do need immigration enforcement to ensure that violent criminals and drug cartels and human traffickers and terrorist organizations aren’t in our communities and that they are deported,” Conley said.
“But what we are seeing right now with the conduct of ICE is posing a public safety hazard. To your point, last week, they shot into a car where there was a 5-year-old child. I’ll tell you, as a law enforcement officer, you’re not permitted to do that kind of stuff.”

Lawler, however, pointed out the man has a lengthy criminal rap sheet and was seen by some as a danger to his community. He also argued the shooting would never have happened had local law enforcement not been barred from handing him over to ICE by New York’s sanctuary laws.
He said Conley “supports making New York a sanctuary state, prohibits cooperation between local law enforcement and federal immigration officials.”

Lawler later pivoted the discussion to Sheridan Gorman, the college student from his district who was killed while out with her friends near her campus in Chicago earlier this year. The illegal immigrant accused of killing her was previously charged with shoplifting, but Chicago sanctuary laws prevent local law enforcement from handing him over to ICE.

Conley called Gorman’s death “an atrocious crime” while repeatedly pointing out it took place in Chicago.
Lawler attempted to intervene multiple times to call it “preventable,” to which an irate Conley responded, “Can I finish?”
“And I do support federal agents and federal law enforcement, federal immigration enforcement, making sure that we deport violent citizens,” she said.

Lawler then argued, however, that Conley’s support of sanctuary policies runs counter to that.
“If you think he should have been deported when he was arrested for shoplifting, he should have been turned over to ICE. Under the new law that you support, he will not be turned over to ICE, and he will be released under cashless bail,” Lawler said.
It prompted the moderator to step in, telling Lawler there was no “cross-examination round.”
Elsewhere in the debate, Lawler accused Conley of having “literally just lied” that Lawler voted with Trump “100% of the time.”

“I’ve been rated the third most independent member of my conference. And I have taken on the president on numerous issues, including lifting the cap on SALT, including extending Haitian TPS, including passing an extension for the ACA enhanced premium tax credit despite his objections,” Lawler said.
Earlier in the debate, Conley tried to accuse Lawler of supporting tax breaks for companies that build data centers as part of the One Big Beautiful Bill.

Lawler shot back, “I know you just moved here from Virginia, so it’s hard for you to understand the local communities, but the fact is … the provision you referenced in the Working Families Tax Cut Act is $80 billion for 100% expensing for every business in America to expense plant, property and equipment.
“Are you against our small businesses in the Hudson Valley being able to expense their plant, property and equipment and hire more people? Your attack on that rings hollow. You clearly don’t understand what’s actually in the tax bill. And part of the problem is you don’t pay property taxes.”

Amid the drama were moments of civility.
Both candidates shook hands after their spirited debate and thanked each other for appearing. Lawler also thanked Conley for her military service.
The district is a pivotal one for control of the House next year. Lawler is one of three House Republicans who won a district that former Vice President Kamala Harris also won in 2024.
And in an election that’s expected to be brutal for the GOP, both sides are pouring millions of dollars into the fight.
