.@NYC_DOI finds the Conflicts of Interest Board erred in allowing First Deputy Mayor Randy Mastro to remain Madison Square Garden's lawyer while at City Hall without a public waiver.

New Jersey's past of corruption doesn't have to be our future. We can reject corrupt machine politics and elect a new generation of leaders who work for the people. I'm excited to keep notching victories like these for our grassroots pro-democracy movement.

I’m getting inquiries about the even-year ballot proposal in NYC It is advisory, with no effect. The state constitution must be changed, a multi-yr effort including a statewide referendum And “if” Albany acts, it could take any number of forms. Don’t hope and don’t worry
