I want to congratulate the municipal retirees on their campaign for what is right. Every retiree should be fully embraced and protected in a health insurance blanket that gives them the safety of the full coverage they deserve. I’m with you. And always will be.

Yesterday a woman was burned to death on a subway. And yet we are told daily that everything is fine. Subways are safe. City is great. Crime is down……But it’s not. And we all know it’s not.

Wishing all my Jewish brothers and sisters a happy Hanukkah. As we enter this Holy Week, my thoughts are with those who are still held hostage in Gaza. And my hope is they are set free, and returned to their families immediately.

Congestion fees. There is no spit and polish that can ever be put on this new tax on working/middle class New Yorkers. Simply put, we need new leadership. We need to hold people accountable. And we do that by voting against those who work against us.

Happy Presidents' Day! On this day, we celebrate the leaders who have shaped our nation and built it into what it is today. From our founding fathers, to those who have followed in their path, we honor our history and look toward our future.

I stand with Israel. I stand with decency. I stand for Kfir, Ariel, and their mom, Shiri Bibas. I stand with all who stand against the horror that is Hamas.

This is the type of bread and butter issues that we need to be fighting for. Working people are beyond tired of having their pockets picked. My campaign for city council is focused on working with leaders such as Grace Meng to push back against and stop this kind of nonsense.

Everyone is Irish today. Wishing a Happy fun filled Saint Patrick’s Day to you all. And remember, a pint of Guinness is a special kind of holy water. ☘️

This campaign is about everyday people. Those who want clean parks, safe streets, great schools and a more affordable city. And it will be a #unionbuilt campaign.

Loved seeing your members out in full force today. Have met so many who live here in CD30 over the last several weeks. This campaign is about our neighbors, our workers and their families.

To the over 300 carpenters and over 100 addition volunteers, my heartfelt thank you. I will show up all day everyday for you and your families once elected.

Yaron Lischinsky and Sarah Milgrim. My condolences to all who are impacted by these brutal cowardly murders. Antisemitism in all its forms, must be confronted and pushed back against. Or this is the tragic road we end up on.
