Great talk with Ben Max about the current state of budget negotiations on healthcare, Medicaid funding, Home Care, and housing. Give it a listen!

Thankful to the U.S. EPA for finalizing their first-ever federal limits on toxic #PFAS in drinking water. The @NYSDOH has been ahead of the curve but these new regs must be adopted ASAP. We must invest in our drinking water infrastructure to protect NYers' health Environmental Advocates NY

We need tenant protections in this budget, not displacement and much less, catering to the real estate industry. Holding strong with Housing Justice For All.

Over 60 elected officials throughout New York have signed onto this letter by NY Senator Jessica Ramos calling on Mayor Eric Adams to reach a fair contract with the thousands of resident physicians & fellows at the city’s public hospitals who provide frontline care to NYC communities every day.

Happy Easter Sunday to all New Yorkers celebrating this special day! Hope you have a joyous celebration along with your family and friends.

It’s comedic seeing NYPD and exclusively right wing outlets and politicians defend Eric Adams and call me a liar, yet none of them can say what I lied about because everything I said is easily verifiable. Nonetheless, I compiled the receipts:
