As the race for New York’s 1st and 2nd Congressional District takes shape, If This Be Treason offers listeners a closer look at the candidates seeking to represent communities across the southern half of Suffolk County—from Massapequa to Mastic and Shirley. Guest host Steve Matteo leads a two-part interview series featuring in-depth conversations with the candidates about their priorities, perspectives, and vision for the district. On Thursday, April 9 from 2–4 PM, Matteo sits down with Chris Gallant, running in NY-01

The following week, on Thursday, April 16 from 2–4 PM, he speaks with Jess Murphy, who's running in NY-02.

These interviews provide an opportunity to hear directly from each candidate, explore the issues shaping the district, and better understand the choices facing voters in this closely watched race.
