Grateful for this place and these people. Every day is a chance for us to build something better.

To everyone who stepped forward to join this movement with me: you believed that something better was possible and that belief is not wrong.
Thank you.
Thank you for all the birthday wishes!
I don’t think these two knew they were signing up to knock doors 34 years ago 😅
I’m proud to have @rokhanna.bsky.social on our side.
We’re anti-war, anti-Epstein class, and pro-working class.
This is our moment to win a new era in NY-21. Join us: DylanHewitt.com
Big Ag and their lobbyists hate that I’m running to break up the meat industry and lower your grocery costs.
They’ve rigged the economy, undercut our farmers, and robbed us of freedom for too long.
I welcome their hatred.

We were robbed of healthcare and hospital funding to send more bombs abroad, and now we’re paying $4.25/gallon in #NY21.
I’m the pro-worker, anti-war Democrat running to replace Elise Stefanik.
End the war. Tax the rich. Put our families first.
This house party was special because Greenfield is where my dad was principal for over 20 years.
He taught me to believe in every person’s potential. If you had Mr. Hewitt, your kids did, or if you know someone who did — then you know that I’ll never be a Congressman who questions your self-worth.
In the richest country in the world, no one should go without the care they deserve. I'm running for Congress to fight for Medicare for All and give Annie, Orrie, Kim, and every family like theirs a life of dignity.
Kim, a mom in Washington County, told me her son just turned 26 and he can't find a job that covers his healthcare.
Orrie, a senior from Fulton County, told me she's weighing her prescriptions against the cost of everything else that keeps going up.
Every single day, I hear from our neighbors that this is what keeps them up at night: Annie, a restaurant worker in Warren County, told me she and her husband went without coverage this year because they were too scared to check the new prices on the marketplace.
That was before this administration stole healthcare funding to fund ICE and another war. Now our hospitals are already laying off workers, and we're staring down a 114-mile stretch that will become a medical desert.
When I started this campaign, a doctor told me something I haven't been able to shake: their patients would rather die at home than drive over an hour to get care. 🧵
The same people who robbed $2 billion from the North Country’s hospitals now want 100x that to bomb hospitals in a war nobody asked for.
Business as usual won’t cut it. This is our moment to organize working families across Upstate New York and fight for universal childcare, Medicare for All, and safe housing.
I’m proud to have @citizenactionny.org in that fight. Join us!
We deserve a leader who actually believes in our self-worth and will fight for our freedom.
It’s why I’m running to break up corporate power in Washington and finally take on the monopolies squeezing the North Country.

With the Hewitt for Congress logo at the top, and Saratoga County Young Democrats logo at the bottom.
I’m grateful to have the Saratoga County Young Democrats in this fight with us.
We deserve a new generation of leaders who will stop using our tax dollars to fund another forever war and start investing in young working families here at home.
Graphic reads: "The North Country deserves better." above two 7NEWS headlines: "Layoffs at St. Lawrence Co. hospitals, (40 jobs at Rochester Regional Health facilities)" and "North Star to lay off 100+ employees".
These aren’t just numbers. They’re our family, friends, and neighbors we depend on.
When Elise Stefanik voted to gut Medicaid, she knew NY-21 hospitals would be pushed closer to the brink. We shouldn’t lose our care while corporate health systems and insurance companies rake in billions.
Let’s gooooo! Thank you for knocking doors and being a part of our team.
Standing room only at today’s meet and greet in Saranac Lake! This is our moment. The momentum is on our side, and we are organizing to win.
If you haven’t signed a petition or want to help get signatures, send us a DM (and send to 5 friends to do the same) 📲
3.4 million fewer Canadians crossed into NY last year.
I served as a Deputy Assistant U.S. Trade Rep at the White House. I know how much #NY21 depends on Canada.
We're the ones who take the hit from bad trade deals while billionaires barely notice.

I stand in solidarity with the teachers, nurses, firefighters, and public employees fighting to fix Tier 6.
When I get to Congress, I’ll pass the PRO Act to protect our right to join a union and fight to guarantee everyone a dignified retirement.
Union strong! #FixTier6
I’m deeply proud to be from South Glens Falls.
Every year, our students organize to help #NY21 families pay for healthcare. Tonight they raised over $735,000.
This is the place that taught me to organize, and the people who made me who I am. They are why I'm in this race.
Gas is up. Jobs are down.
We deserve a leader in Congress who will end this war and fight the corruption of the Epstein Class.
Tonight I'm thinking about Annie, a waitress I met who is about my age, and how she told me that her husband and she decided to go uninsured because they were too scared to look at new prices on the ACA marketplace without subsidies.
Somehow there is always enough money for war.
Trump is sending Americans to die because Netanyahu wanted war.
The reality is that the Epstein Class thinks of us as disposable, and they will force another generation to die in Trump and Netanyahu’s illegal war just to line their pockets.
He has blood on his hands.
The people pushing for this illegal war won’t be the ones fighting it, but they will be the ones profiting from the death and destruction.
No war with Iran.
NNY360 Article entitled: "Getting to know Dylan Hewitt, NY-21 candidate" with a photo of Dylan announcing his campaign for NY-21 in front of his childhood home. The article preview reads: "And Hewitt offers no quarter to the Democratic leadership either; he’s been critical of moves taken by Democratic leaders in the minority in both chambers of Congress, and he told the Times that he won’t commit to electing minority leader Rep. Hakeem S. Jeffries, R-Brooklyn, as Speaker of the House if the Democrats take back the chamber in November’s election. “We need to go into Congress and have a Democratic Party that is ready to seize the moment, to fight and to govern,” he said. “I don’t see that in this leadership.”"
The very top keeps getting richer and keeps getting protected — and we deserve leadership that will end that corruption.
It’s why I’m running.
