At the Monday Meeting a few weeks ago I noted how telling it was that this Mayor appointed a deputy mayor for “economic justice” before he even entered office, yet nearly 6 months into this administration he has yet to appoint a head of the NYC economic development corporation. Where’s the “justice” if you are not growing the economy, creating jobs, or attracting business? https://t.co/Ou3RBOgei3

Many of my colleagues and I were pushing for more officers for the NYPD at the Preliminary Budget hearings earlier this year, especially since our city will be hosting some major international events. Glad to see Commissioner Tisch was listening and our uniform headcount is set to increase https://t.co/Nr4doZhy8U

I had such a great time stopping by the annual Albanian picnic. These proud Staten Islanders are such a great part of the fabric of our borough, city, and country. I hope they had a wonderful day celebrating their community and culture

[Minority Leader David Carr @CMDMCarr]

My office partnered with the @StatenIslandDA 's Office on today’s shred event at the @csinews . So many residents came out to get their sensitive documents shredded. Thank you to DA McMahon and his team for organizing these initiatives around the borough.

[Minority Leader David Carr @CMDMCarr]

We kicked off our “Spring Sports Series” with the @TIA_Initiative . A great program that allows kids in the IDD community and their siblings to play and compete together. This offering will continue for several weeks and is a continuation of our fall series we started last year

I had a great time this morning at the Verrazzano Kiwanis First Annual Car Show in South Beach. Thank you to Verrazano Kiwanis Club for your continuous support of the Staten Island community

[Minority Leader David Carr @CMDMCarr]

It was great hosting our first community concert in Dyker Beach Park last night. Thank you to Il Centro, the IS 201 band, and the MAS Swing Band for a wonderful night! Stay tuned for future events

This Charter Revision Commission is an opportunity to bring all of the key stakeholders together to find ways to make government work better for all New Yorkers. But leaving the City Council - the co-equal branch of our democracy - without a seat at the table just makes this panel a rubber stamp for the Mayor’s socialist ambitions https://t.co/010J6skEdt

When fake fandom goes horribly wrong…

[Minority Leader David Carr @CMDMCarr]

I don’t know what’s more alarming - the Mayor’s brazen plan to attempt to aggressively seize private property in an effort to create socialized housing, or this administration’s naive and facile misunderstanding of market economics and perhaps intentional ignorance of the Democrat housing policies that have created the housing crisis in the first place https://t.co/ux0yERRd2I

I want to wish an #EidMubarak to all my constituents that begin celebrating tonight. May this #EidAlAdha be filled with peace, love, and happiness for your families

[Minority Leader David Carr @CMDMCarr]

A recently reintroduced version of the so-called “Community Opportunity to Purchase Act” - or COPA- has been rebranded “COPA Light” in hopes of making the idea of government trampling over private property rights seem more palatable. Don’t be fooled - it would still have disastrous effects on the housing market, chill investment and ultimately hurt the NYers it purports to help https://t.co/PnjH8lO4Mj

Thank you to the Sgt. Angel Mendez Detachment 246 - Marine Corps League for having us as part of their annual #MemorialDay remembrance. It is always a moving tribute to the Marines and other US service members who gave their lives for America. #SemperFidelis #SemperFi

[Minority Leader David Carr @CMDMCarr]

I’m proud to be part of such a patriotic community. God bless our veterans and especially those that never returned and their families. God bless America!

[Minority Leader David Carr @CMDMCarr]

May our nation never forget the sacrifices of the brave who donned the uniform of the United States. Their selflessness is the foundation of our liberty and prosperity. God bless and preserve their memory and bring comfort to their families who still struggle with their loss. I pray this #MemorialDay that all of our citizenry reflects proudly and gratefully on the legacy of our heroes, and may God always bless America

[Minority Leader David Carr @CMDMCarr]

My thoughts and prayers are with those injured in this attack on the White House, which could have been far worse if not for the swift actions of our brave Secret Service officers. While the incident remains under investigation, these acts of violence against @POTUS do not seem to be abating. We can never tolerate this escalation because it threatens the very foundation of our civic life. God bless and keep the First Family, and God bless America! https://t.co/PA6I1tD9wn

[Minority Leader David Carr @CMDMCarr]

I began this weekend’s #MemorialDay observances in Travis remembering those who gave the ultimate sacrifice for our nation and the American Legion Gold Star Post’s members that we have lost over the years. May God preserve their memory, and may God bless America! 🇺🇸

[Minority Leader David Carr @CMDMCarr]

“This is America - people have the freedom to say or write whatever awful, batsh-t crazy things they want. But these deranged homicide-fan girls should never be allowed access to courtrooms or official press events with the imprimatur of the City of New York. They aren’t reporters - they’re ghouls.” https://t.co/3qh9V9V92t

[Minority Leader David Carr @CMDMCarr]

It was my honor to pay tribute to the sacrifice and memory of Staff Sergeant Michael Ollis yesterday. His awarding of the Congressional Medal of Honor was long overdue. Thank you to the Ollis family for all that you do to champion his legacy and that of all veterans

So I’m opening a beer garden just in time for the World Cup!
But it’s more than that… live music, games, bingo, events, car shows, food, and fun. Come check us out this summer!
