I'm a community volunteer and school leader. I love helping my community and showing my kids that I love them so much that I must be involved with their school
NYC: Early Voting starts in less than 10 days. Do you know what's on the back of your ballot? We spoke to @tiffany_caban about how you can help protect local democracy by saying NO to Mayor Adams' power grab & voting no on Props 2-6. #Nix2through6#NoPowerGrabNYC
JD Vance's mom was able to get off of Medicaid and onto private insurance because she bought it off the Ohio Healthcare Marketplace, or better known as Obamacare.

Trump being too old to govern isn’t the narrative I’m worried about.
JD Vance becoming the President because Trump vacates the office is what I’m worried about.
We’re standing with @citizenactionny and @investinourny to demand @GovKathyHochul and the state legislature pass the Invest in Our New York Act. Millionaires and corporations MUST pay their fair share to fund essential services like affordable child care in our communities.
The fact that NYPD has essentially just adopted unconstitutional arrests that lead to no charges as a way to essentially stifle all protest is not only a violation of our 4th amendment rights, but another failure of leadership by @NYCMayor Eric Adams
Tonight, Missouri lynched another innocent Black man.
Governor Parson had the responsibility to save this innocent life, and he didn’t. The NAACP was founded in 1909 in response to the barbaric lynching of Black people in America — we were founded exactly because of people like Governor Parson who perpetuate violence against innocent Black people.
We will hold Governor Parson accountable. When DNA evidence proves innocence, capital punishment is not justice—it is murder.

A reminder that Black people are 7x more likely to be wrongly convicted of murder than white people and since the late 1980s, Black folks make up more than 50 percent of exonerations.
France’s Jean-Luc Mélenchon:
“Right now, Lebanon is being bombed, and genocide in Gaza has been ongoing for nearly a year.
Yet the world looks away.
We are morally responsible for what is happening, and whether you like it or not, we are complicit.”
Our Haitian neighbors are being targeted with hateful lies and bomb threats fueled by xenophobia and anti-Black racism.
I stand with my colleagues in the Haiti Caucus in introducing H.Res. 1473 to condemn these attacks.
To our Haitian community: we love you and stand with you.
The Mayor must resign.
No Mayor can serve our city under criminal indictment. The only responsible course for New York City is for Mayor Eric Adams to step down.
If he refuses, he must be removed from office as prescribed by the charter. New Yorkers deserve so much better.
No DNA evidence. Jury members, even the prosecutor circled back saying the verdict was a mistake. Nobody involved wanted this man to die. We have a soulless justice system in this country. This is why the term “black lives matter,” as simple as it sounds, is so audacious.
A reminder that the previous Governor halted Marcellus's execution indefinitely and put together a group to examine his case and look at clemency. Parson dismantled that group and restarted the execution despite the Prosecuting Attorney's pleas. He should never know peace.
In light of the federal indictment and ongoing dysfunction, it’s clear Mayor Adams can no longer effectively serve New Yorkers. As chairs of the Progressive Caucus, we are calling for his immediate resignation to restore trust in our city’s leadership.
