Aronsohn, 39, is a former staffer in the administrations of President Bill Clinton and New Jersey Gov. James McGreevey. This will be Aronsohn's first political race.
"I love my country, and I refuse to stand by while people like Scott Garrett lead us dangerously in the wrong direction," Aronsohn said in a statement. "I refuse to stand by while they undermine our national security, neglect our economic security, and pay lip service to our health security."
