Daily Beast names Malliotakis one of nine women remaking GOP
Assemblywoman Nicole Malliotakis, who has been considered a rising star in the Republican Party ever since she surprised political pundits by capturing her assembly seat three years ago, has won praise from media superstar Tina Brown’s website, which called her one of nine women reshaping the image of the GOP.
In an article posted Sept. 3, The Daily Beast praised Malliotakis’ “old school legislative work” and said that work has “gotten her noticed as a young, rising talent nationally.”
The article cited her successful efforts to get the Metropolitan Transportation Authority to restore service on the B37 bus, as well as her fight to get the state to crack down on so-called day spas, which are suspected of being fronts for prostitution.
