Today I hosted more than 40 stakeholders in a Youth Justice Convening to find solutions to uplift our youth. We had a very informative, frank discussion on how we can help ensure justice for young victims and fair accountability for young defendants. It was a great start.
2024 WRAP REPORT-APA partnered w @BronxDAClark to co-host the PAGV Conf. Kate Theobald shared, “With the partnership of APA, @ProsecutorsAGV hosted its annual conf...APA's support was essential to the conf’s success...to address the nat'l public health issue of gun violence.”
BXDA kicked off National Gun Violence Awareness Month with a terrific conference at Fordham University, the annual Prosecutors Against Gun Violence conference.
Before we get carried away with today’s big budget news, sending a big thanks and congrats to my amazing Chief of Staff @KateTheoNYC on her last day with Team KP.
I’m very lucky to have a great team and Kate has been a big part of it over the last few years. 🎉
New York City is nothing without its restaurants and bars.
As they climb out of debt and work to bring back customers, we need to do all we can to support their recovery.
Very proud to introduce a new bill with @NYCMayor & @JustinBrannan to suspend the liquor tax in NYC.
A special thank you to everyone that supported me with your words, actions, ideas, and more.
And the biggest thank you on earth to my amazing team, including the all-star campaigner @kayedyja and my great Chief @KateTheoNYC
You all rock.
Congratulations to the “consensus” candidate 👏🏻 @KeithPowersNYC (and also “well liked,” “bridge builder,”“record is generally free of major problems,” “non controversial” but not a “policy lightweight and lawmaker who don’t stick their necks out on any particular issue,” etc etc)
It's still early days in the city council speaker race, but @KeithPowersNYC is one name that keeps appearing on people's lists of maybes. Can he be the compromise candidate and last person standing?

Another person in custody at Rikers Island has died. This time inside the Vernon C. Bain facility in the Bronx.
The second person this week. The 12th this year.
We need all hands on deck. No half-measures.
This is how @NYCMayor and @GovKathyHochul can immediately take action:
Congrats to my Chief of Staff @KateTheoNYC for being selected as one of the @CUNYISLG public service leaders!
And congrats to all to those being selected. A great group of leaders.
