Proud to join so many friends in labor and elected officials as we rallied to support @EspaillatNY ! For years I have worked with @EspaillatNY and seen firsthand how he has stood up for his community whether it was working together on the #2020 Census or on labor & worker protection issues.
Labor was there for my family when I was growing up and it saved my life. That’s why I will show up every day in DC and fight for labor, our working families, and our right to organize. Thank you to the incredible coalition of labor unions that showed up today to rally in Queens.
Deeply grateful to have the support of @NYSAFLCIO and the 2.5 million union members, retirees, and working families they represent.
I’ve spent my career fighting alongside labor to give working people dignity, power, and a voice at the table. Now, we're taking the fight to DC.
Appears unlikely any candidate will pass the 50% threshold required to win outright. That means this'll move to ranked choice rounds, which won't start being tabulated until next week.
No matter what, this is a bad night for Boylan and Mamdani (93% of scanners reporting now):
The line tonight for old-timer Panna II, the last restaurant standing at 93 First Ave. in the East Village … a surge in business thanks to a fictional John John and Carolyn B visit in the FX series 'John F. Kennedy Jr. & Carolyn Bessette.'
Julie Menin is a “machine, when it comes to work,” she’s “an operator” and she’s “ambitious” – but so what? Get to know the New York City Council’s new speaker, profiled by @SahalieD:

Because of the tireless work of @NYCSanitation and city workers across agencies, New York City is moving this morning. Streets are being cleared, remote learning is in effect, and services are continuing. Please continue to use caution and reach out to 311 if you need help.
HTC is proud to endorse Antonio Reynoso for Congress. Throughout his career, Antonio has always delivered for organized labor and working families, and we know he will do the same in Washington.
Tricia Shimamura is one of the finest public sector leaders I've ever worked with. And an incredible human being to boot.
This is spectacular news for parks in NYC.

Congressmember @ReElectNydia is a legend and an icon, and it’s the honor of a lifetime to have La Luchadora’s endorsement.
I’m committed to carrying her torch forward, fighting for the working class, and standing up to Trump and his Republican cronies.
Congrats to my friend @RLEspinal on his appointment. Film & TV are one of the most important industries for NYC and Raf is an all-star hire.

Workers shouldn’t have to take on their bosses on their own. Bills like @tiffany_caban’s Delivery Protection Act will close subcontractor loopholes that allow Amazon to cheat their workers out of better wages and benefits.
Let’s get it done!
