Thank you to every member of our community and every grassroots supporter for entrusting me with the great responsibility of representing NY-14 in Congress. We do this with small dollars, every time. I remain grateful to all of you who make a new kind of governance possible.

Congratulations Summer Lee, a Justice Dems recruit, for making history last night. Congress got another champion for the working class. #PA12

We need to talk about how Mayor Eric Adams betrayed his fellow Democrats this cycle. There's a pattern of behavior that shows he has no place in any kind of party leadership. 🧵

We won! Thank you to the voters of Kensington, Sunset Park, Bay Ridge, Dyker Heights, Bensonhurst, and Bath Beach in the new 17th Senate District for their faith in me. I promise every day to fight for a better New York – safer, cleaner, and more affordable for our families (1/2)

Huge! Standardized tests are not an indication of potential success in… any setting! #LSAT #GRExit

Schools… libraries… health care. Where and when will it end?

After the #DamarHamlin incident, the conversation around CPR training and AED access is important. But we can't sidestep some hard truths. America is addicted to this violent and brutal game. And the NFL has repeatedly shown that does not care about Black players' health.

Genteee. O que isto? Pegaram pesado! Protesto silencioso na 23rd Street, em Manhattan, contra a presença de bolsonaristas ilustres na Flórida. É justamente na rua onde estão alguns dos mais famosos hotéis de Nova York.

.Adrienne Adams calls Mayor Eric Adams’s preliminary budget “unacceptable and not in the best interest of New York City.” “This Council cannot and will not support this counterproductive approach,” she says, citing cuts to CUNY, libraries, childhood education and social services.

In states with vouchers, 75-80% are used by kids already in private schools. If Texas adopts vouchers, $3 billion will be transferred from public schools to private schools. The 5 million kids in public schools will be cheated.

Maria a Queens parent- says cuts to schools this year were devastating - no art teacher , no librarian at her child’s school. we need to reverse that & add more funding for smaller classes ! #PeoplesPlan #CarenotCuts

Zakiyah AQE New York (aqeny.bsky.social) says I don’t know a single scripture that would support what this mayor is doing with the city budget.
