.Bernie Sanders is absolutely right: in the wealthiest country in the history of the world, there should be no reason that its citizens can barely afford to live on their wages.👎🏾

The time is NOW to demand fair pay. Join the movement at onefairwage.org and be heard.✊🏾

I've stood up for our public schools, families and teachers—so a Walmart heir and one of the *richest men in the world* are spending for my opponent.

When I said big money was coming for me, I meant it. Help fight back: emilyforassembly.com/donate

So proud to be endorsed by Queens comrade Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez! A fearless champion for working NYers, she inspires everyone to dream bigger + fight harder. TY Congresswoman, not only for your belief in this campaign, but for your commitment to building the collective power of our movement. ✊🏽

Congratulations to our colleagues in the press for The LCA Show last night!

It was fun and a good opportunity for us to share humor and an appreciation of each other's work for New Yorkers.

AAFSC was proud to join the Coalition of MENA NYers in #Albany on Tuesday to urge lawmakers to support the MENA Data Disaggregation bill. A huge thank you to our NYS electeds who are rallying behind this monumental legislation! Sen. Mike Gianaris Jessica González-Rojas Zohran Kwame Mamdani Assemblymember Grace Lee 李榮恩

Thrilled to announce that I’ve received the endorsement of the New York State Young Democrats! The power of young Democrats is undeniable – we’re passionate advocates for equality, progress, and real change. Together, w/ NYS Young Democrats we’re building a brighter future for New York.

Did we not go through the same global pandemic in the last few years? Or does he just not care about public health?

NYC should be leading the world in ending the HIV/AIDS epidemic. These cuts are just straight up foolish. #CareNotCuts

MENA coalition Malikah and state lawmakers are advancing legislation that would differentiate Middle Eastern and North African New Yorkers from other ethnicities in state data.

I represent Astoria and the status quo makes the needs of our Middle Eastern & North African (MENA) communities invisible.

MENA NYers don't benefit from whiteness but they're excluded from various resources bc they're data isn't disaggregated. Let's pass A6219B & #CountMENAIn !

The right move by the NY Court of Appeals! Employer-based coverage is integral to New Yorkers receiving the healthcare they need including abortion care. Today's ruling affirms that #AbortionIsHealthCare .

Our next win is the Equal Rights Amendment, New York!

Had a good meeting today with some youth on Eddie Gibbs’ legislation to #RaiseTheGate . Appreciate these young people and the Assembly Member’s support of people who are incarcerated.

I would not be where I am today if I didn't have my community behind me.

Showing up for NY-16 doesn’t just happen in the halls of Congress, it happens here, in our district. This campaign will always be rooted in community because at the end of the day, that's who I do this for.

Many folks in Assemblymember Jessica González-Rojas's district who identify as 'MENA' are boxed into the 'White' category on data collection forms. NYC legislative bills S6584-B and A6219-A could change this and #CountMENAIn .

ICYMI: Last week the MLTC Transparency Act was introduced by NY Assembly Member Jessica González-Rojas and Senator Senator Rachel May. Listen up and read full article below 👇 #CareNotProfits #FairPay4HomeCare NY Caring Majority 🍎

The bill would mandate data that would:

1️⃣ Determine whether the MLTC program is spending taxpayer money as intended.
2️⃣ Allow the public to understand how much profit MLTCs are keeping
3️⃣ Report on service denials
4️⃣ Show nursing home diversions

Tell your reps to support it!

New Bill Alert! Providers have failed to pay homecare workers what they deserve and aren't reporting data to the state. So Senator Rachel May and I have introduced S9266/A10176, the MLTC Transparency Act.
