At the heart of every scientist is a commitment to facts, integrity, and truth. I begin this new journey after serving for 21 years as a National Laboratory Scientist on Long Island. Time after time I’ve seen how science and imagination connect us – and dare us to dream of what’s possible. I believe if we harness that spirit, together we can be a force for good in the next great chapter of New York’s first congressional district and our nation. – Elaine DiMasi
We are not separate from our environment. We breathe the air, we drink the water, and we eat food that comes from the earth. Dirty energy poisons them all.
Suffolk County’s 1.5 million residents use hundreds of millions of gallons of groundwater a day, and have hundreds of miles of fragile, living beaches in our care.
Updated and thriving public vocational training will prepare Long Islanders for new Clean Energy Sector jobs that can energize our future economy!
Health. Life. Freedom. You can’t have one without the other two.
Long Islanders must have affordable, universal health care.

RONKONKOMA, N.Y.—Democratic Congressional Candidate Elaine DiMasi (NY-01) released the following statement on Child Sexual Abuse Awareness Month:
March 2nd, 2018, in Brookhaven Town, former BNL scientist Elaine DiMasi addressed the U.S. Dept. of Interior’s John Tanner and Kate MacGregor, while Rep. Lee Zeldin looked on. DiMasi, a candidate for Congress in NY’s 1st District, called for prevention of offshore oil exploration anywhere in US waters. Rep. Zeldin asked for crumbs from Trump’s table.
“The premise of all the scientists running for Congress or for other offices this year is that they’re tenacious to try and solve the problem by getting as much information as possible that will allow the next step to be discovered or revealed or the next question to be answered.”
Last year, she marched. This year, she’s running. Over the weekend, Elaine participated in the annual March for Science.
