The fact that the Times bought into the “disorder” myth is wild. Did they live here in the 70s & 80s? NYC is mostly fine but BRUTALLY unaffordable. Homelessness isn’t a “management” problem & every other barometer has improved since 2013. This is a joke. nytimes.com/2025/06/16/opi…

100% agree. Vote for Justin Brannan!

JB speaks at the NY Working Families Party rally: “I'm tired of hearing that the big bold ideas we're putting forward are radical or crazy... You know what's radical and crazy? Tax breaks for billionaires. You know what's radical and crazy? Endless fucking wars!”

That’s right.

Two dead people, and at least one living person who didn't vote, supposedly cast their ballot in the Republican primary in my City Council race. I'm calling upon the District Attorney or the Attorney General's office to conduct a full investigation. nypost.com/2025/07/22/us-…

Props to the parents who organized to make this THE issue for any candidate running for mayor this year. Next stop: 2-Care in NYC and universal childcare in 2026!

As New York City goes, so goes the nation? Allison Lew from New Yorkers United for Child Care and I throw down on why universal child care would be a gamechanger for working families AND the economy. GOVERNING

Today my Republican opponent accepted the endorsement of someone he accused of committing election fraud -- a serious felony -- just a week ago. Smells like a cover-up to me.

we need safe streets for kids running like this

“When we cater to the people who are most upset about any proposed change, we are sacrificing the future for those who cannot imagine anything beyond the present.”

.Brooklyn Community Board 6 will vote YES on BMT Vision Plan . After decades of neglect, this is part 1 of a 3-phase, 15-year process for housing, resilience, transit & jobs. W/ Rep. Dan Goldman AndrewGounardes @ShahanaFromBk @AntonioReynosoBK NYCHA leaders & more. bit.ly/cb6bmtyes

Excited to see this — we need affordable housing, better transit, and a working waterfront! Thanks State Senator Andrew Gounardes and Council Member Shahana Hanif for improving this proposal and moving it forward!

I’m in Streetsblog New York City this morning with an op-Ed on my ‘Yes’ on the Brooklyn Marine Terminal Vision Plan. bit.ly/streetsblogmik…

So so vile. There are several leading members of New York Republican politics implicated in these racist, anti-Semitic, and bigoted messages. Kudos to the Republican leaders who have condemned this. Shame on those who haven’t or worse, won’t. politico.com/news/2025/10/1…

Woman haters always show their colors eventually. Last night my opponent tried to argue that I didn’t own my own business. People like this shouldn’t be in office. Period.

Is It ‘Subsidizing the Rich’ to Make Buses and Child Care Free for All? NO! When child care is “free,” it’s funded by taxes. When taxes are progressive (the rich pay bigger % of income), then the rich contribute more $$ to fund care for everyone. nytimes.com/2025/10/23/nyr…

I’ve known Brad Lander for nearly 15 years, and he is as principled a progressive fighter as they come. Excited to support Brad as he fights to take his leadership and experience to Congress! Team Gounardes is always on Team Lander!

Congratulations Kayla Santosuosso! Our district will soon have a mom at the helm! The fight for universal child care just got personal. Kayla Santosuosso

“Holy shit! I am floored!” Rebecca Bailin saying what every New York parent was thinking today.

Nurul Alam’s death has been ruled a homicide by the Erie County Medical Examiner. The only way to ensure justice for his family is to prevent the type of collusion between local police and ICE/CBP that led to his death. We must pass New York for All. buffalonews.com/news/local/cri…
