The Grand Street Bridge is a vital link between Brooklyn & Queens, and I am proud to have helped secure this $15 M investment in this project.

Thank you to Brooklyn CB1 + Queens CB5, and all the stakeholders who worked so hard to make this happen.

Thank you, Rep. Rep. Nydia Velazquez, for your support for making more buses fare-free across New York City.

Public transportation is the engine that keeps our city growing and moving: let’s make sure New Yorkers have access to reliable, safe & affordable transit.

Medicaid only reimburses hospitals 70¢ on the dollar, giving beneficiaries—like 50% of Brooklynites—limited health care options & worse outcomes.

Yvette D. Clarke Rep. Nydia Velazquez & I are urging Governor Kathy Hochul to close the Medicaid gap & ensure NYers access quality health care.

MAGA Republicans and Trump paved the way for the return of this 1864 law banning nearly all abortions.

Republicans want to take us back to the 19th century & will not stop pursuing bans like this across the country.

Democrats won't stop fighting to protect reproductive rights.

It's eclipse day, New York City! 🌞🌘

Do you have a plan to safely observe this historic event?

Peak coverage will be at 3:25 p.m., when 90% of the sun will be covered by the moon.

Check out some viewing locations, and NEVER look directly at the sun.

This is a significant step that will cancel student debt for more than 30 million Americans!

I applaud President Biden for not letting MAGA Republicans and a radical right-wing SCOTUS stop him from getting Americans the debt relief they deserve.

Ecuador's raid of the Mexican embassy is a plain violation of international law and would set a dangerous precedent for the hemisphere.

This breach of diplomatic protections and Mexican sovereignty must not stand, and US officials should loudly condemn it.

We can't change the past Richard Blumenthal. What's done is done.
 
Forcing the only Latina on the Court to retire isn't going to get us a liberal majority back.
 
I believe we can win this November, but based on your comments Senator it seems you've given up.
