Congratulations to #FDNY Lt. Michael Conboy on an extraordinary 41yrs of dedicated service. His leadership, professionalism & unwavering commitment to protecting New Yorkers reflect the very best traditions of the FDNY & the fire service. Wishing him a well-earned retirement.
A $500M bailout for Spirit Airlines is a misuse of taxpayer dollars. Failing business models shouldn’t be rescued at public expense. If any aid moves forward, it must come with strict conditions, real accountability & zero tolerance for repeat failure. https://t.co/3SxDWUsULG
Deeply saddened by the plane crash at LaGuardia last night. My thoughts are with the passengers, crew, first responders & all impacted by this tragedy. Moments like this remind us of the courage & professionalism of those who step in to help.
Forests are among our most vital natural resources, supporting wildlife, protecting clean air & water, providing places to explore & reconnect with nature. On #InternationalDayofForests, we recognize the importance of protecting these landscapes for future generations.
Families deserve transparency, real accountability & safe, hands-on care, especially in the most critical ICU moments. Technology can assist clinicians, but it must never substitute for vigilant oversight when lives are on the line. #PatientSafety

Great initiative by IN State Parks. Track chairs are opening the outdoors to more people & proving that accessibility belongs in every park. I encourage states across the country to explore similar programs so everyone can experience nature. #OutdoorForAll

#ErnieAnastos brought professionalism, credibility & a steady voice to the news for generations of New Yorkers. A true giant of local journalism. Sending condolences to his family, colleagues & the many viewers who trusted him each night.
On Rare Disease Day, we recognize warriors, not statistics. Every diagnosis carries a story of grit, family & unwavering resolve. I stand with the #EA_TEF & #VACTERLAssociation community. Your resilience fuels progress. Awareness is not enough, action is overdue. #RareDiseaseDay
@RareNewEngland’s selective recognition of rare diseases is indefensible. Acknowledging #AlagilleSyndrome Awareness Day while ignoring #EA_TEF & #VACTERLAssociation Awareness Month sends a clear message: some patients matter more than others. That’s erasure, not advocacy.
Accessibility is not an “intrusion.”
ASL interpretation is a civil right that ensures Deaf & hard-of-hearing Americans have equal access to public information & democracy. Image control should never come before inclusion.

#Intro521 sounds good on paper, but carving out a separate EMS dept. won’t fix response times, it’ll pile on bureaucracy, fracture coordination & weaken frontline response when seconds matter. Strengthen the system we have; don’t splinter it. #NYC#EMS https://t.co/NfNLDus3dI
Congratulations to @erinstewartct on 12 remarkable years of service to the City of #NewBritain. Your leadership, dedication & vision have shaped a lasting legacy. Wishing you all the best as you close this chapter & embark on the next chapter of your life.
The Justice Department published a list of 35 "sanctuary" jurisdictions on Tuesday, vowing to bring lawsuits against states, counties and cities that limit local cooperation with federal immigration agents. https://t.co/XBai6YHKF3
If the @DNC hopes to regain control of the House and Senate in 2026, a change in leadership is essential. In less than six months, Chair @kenmartin73 has demonstrated a concerning lack of effectiveness. The stakes are too high for complacency.
On January 3, 2027, a majority of New England’s 21 House seats must be held by new leaders. It’s time for a generational shift of representatives who grasp today’s challenges and lead with tomorrow’s promise. #2026election
The decision to shut down the Corporation for Public Broadcasting is a short-sighted blow to civic education, rural access & cultural preservation. From PBS Kids to Frontline, public media is not a luxury, it’s a lifeline.
