"NY-12 deserves more than establishment, entitlement, or even entertainment. It deserves effectiveness."
Watch @AlexBores' full @PIX11News debate closing statement:
Alex Bores, targeted by Micah Lasher and Jack Schlossberg throughout the first 15 minutes of #NY12 debate on PIX11:
“With friends like these who need Republicans? The Trump disinformation is coming from within the party…
“Again, they're so feisty today….”
The attacks spread by Trump megadonors and my opponents say one thing, but my track record speaks for itself, and it’s why I have the support of the majority of New York City's unions and countless progressive groups across the city.
To keep the American Dream alive for the next generation, the wealthiest among us need to pay their fair share — so our city can thrive and families can get the resources they need.
In case anyone was curious who every campaign’s polling has running away with, it’s the guy everyone on the debate stage is spending all their time on.
My biggest competitor won't be on tonight's @PIX11News debate stage.
Here's what you need to know, and if you're with me, join the team: https://t.co/rXgo3rcX9G
Thrilled to kick off the New Humanism Project interview series w NY-12’s @AlexBores.
For months, Bores has been the only major candidate putting AI safety at the center of his campaign.
We had lunch and talked about his vision for a pro-human future.

Let me get a little technical here on the New York bill on Surveillance Pricing. It's a good bill, from @EmeritaTorresNY.
But what makes it a good bill is that people who are harmed by, say, being charged more for diapers because their data profile says they are in a rush, can sue.
Without that, all the harms would fall on the New York Attorney General to bring cases. And the NYAG ALREADY HAS authority to sue under the states unfair, deceptive, abusive pricing laws. I worked in that office, and its great, but it doesn't have anywhere near the resources we need to hold big tech accountable.
The key to making the law real is that people who are harmed who can sue. That's called the "Private Right of Action." Insist on it.
I promise you, it is THE thing the Chamber of Commerce is trying to pry out of there as we speak. They don't mind symbolic laws being passed, they mind laws that could actually be enforced being passed.
It’s true, Bores has, by far, the most endorsements from organized labor in NY-12:
— Communication Workers of America (CWA)
— Communication Workers of America (CWA) 1180
— DC 37 (AFSCME/AFL-CIO)
— National Association of Broadcast Employees and Technicians-CWA Local 16
— National Postal Mail Handlers Union Local 300
— New York State AFL-CIO
— New York State Iron Workers District Council
— New York State United Teachers (NYSUT)
— Painters & Allied Trades (IUPAT) District Council 9
— Professional Staff Congress (PSC-CUNY)
— Retail, Wholesale and Department Store Union (RWDSU)
— Transport Workers Union (TWU) Local 100
— United Federation of Teachers (UFT)
— Uniformed Firefighters Association
— United Auto Workers (UAW) Region 9A
Every NYC political operative has a username like “Ridgewoody Harrelson” and their bio is “I will not rest until Pete Alonso reclaims his rightful throne as Queens Borough President.” They are 0/5 on insurgent Assembly races.
I’m endorsing @AlexBores for Congress because artificial intelligence could change everything and we need a leader in Congress who understands it and has a plan to regulate it. AI oligarchs are spending $10 million to defeat his campaign. We don’t agree on everything, but I know what side of that fight I’m on.
When we fight, we win! Today we attended a labor rally and door-knocked with our union brothers and sisters for Alex Bores!
Make a plan to vote early between June 13-21 or on Primary Election Day on June 23 to make your voice heard!
