At today’s hearing, I questioned NYPD leadership about recent posts by top officials using their accounts to attack my colleagues, journalists and civilians.

A DOI policy + practices investigation isn't an excuse to avoid answering questions about NYPD policies.

Cleaned!

The Mayor’s budget makes clear that major work on the BQE Triple Cantilever won’t start until at least 2029.

I hope the Adams admin will partner on a plan that has real community buy in and advances environmental justice along the whole BQE.

Thank you to nurses everywhere for the love you put into taking care of your community! ❤️

🚨 INVESTIGATION UPDATE 🚨

Earlier this year, I launched an investigation into NYC Mayor's Office's cruel 60-Day Rule for asylum-seeking families.

As a public school kid, you know I will always go hard for UFT, our teachers and our schools.

New York City Council is going to fight like hell to restore the funding cuts to our schools from the mayor.

“This is the result of constant defunding, constant disinvestment of our mental health ecosystem.”

We stand w/ NYC Council Member Sandy Nurse in calling on Mayor Eric Adams to fund mental health programs instead of the NYPD.
