I guess it’s just an amazing coincidence that basically every decision related to politics helps Republicans, and every decision related to regulation helps fossil fuel polluters.

They’re mocking the wailing sounds of Palestinian parents they’ve murdered. Using the blankets of children they’ve murdered. They mock, and one day they will be mocked. May that day come soon. Ameen
I’m running to be the first Palestinian Muslim woman elected in New York State. That’s making the right wing very angry.
Before you hear their Islamophobic, bad faith attacks against me, know the facts.
Guards at ICE detention facilities are violently abusing our immigrant neighbors. Firing chemical agents and pepper spray. Beating and tasing prisoners just for asking for food, water, and medical care. Shut these detention camps down. Free our neighbors. Abolish ICE.
Republican leaders in Alabama and Tennessee are pushing new congressional maps after a Supreme Court ruling weakened the Voting Rights Act. The fight for equal representation is far from over. When the protections that once safeguarded the voices of marginalized communities are rolled back, we risk repeating the darkest chapters of our nation’s history. We must stand firm in demanding that every vote counts and every voice is protected. https://t.co/cWax0OciTY
Connecticut Gov. Ned Lamont signed a bill allowing residents to sue federal agents for civil rights violations, requiring warrants for arrests in protected spaces, and banning law enforcement from wearing masks. When power operates in the shadows and without rules, accountability suffers! Oversight matters. 👏🏿
I am horrified and angered by the swastikas painted on homes and synagogues in Queens, including on a plaque honoring survivors of Kristallnacht. This is not just vandalism — it is a deliberate act of antisemitic hatred meant to instill fear. There is no place for antisemitism in Queens or anywhere in our city. I stand in solidarity with our Jewish neighbors. Their safety, dignity, and belonging are non-negotiable. The NYPD Hate Crimes Task Force is investigating and I am confident those responsible will be held accountable.
On fashion’s big night out, we turned the lens onto the garment, retail, warehouse, and delivery workers who make the fashion industry possible.

🚨BREAKING: Newly obtained documents show a clear paper trail of Trump administration officials planning to share sensitive voter data with an outside political group trying to overturn elections, as part of a secret agreement. https://t.co/ehhCCzys1D
Today’s Supreme Court decision effectively guts a key pillar of the Voting Rights Act, freeing state legislatures to gerrymander legislative districts to systematically dilute and weaken the voting power of racial minorities - so long as they do it under the guise of “partisanship” rather than explicit “racial bias.” And it serves as just one more example of how a majority of the current Court seems intent on abandoning its vital role in ensuring equal participation in our democracy and protecting the rights of minority groups against majority overreach.
The good news is that such setbacks can be overcome. But that will only happen if citizens across the country who cherish our democratic ideals continue to mobilize and vote in record numbers - not just in the upcoming midterms or in high profile races, but in every election and every level.
A throne with a golden toilet just went up on the National Mall, in front of the Washington Monument, protesting Trump’s grandiose White House renovations.
It includes a roll of toilet paper that reads “The Secret Handshake,” from the same group responsible for the statue of Trump and Epstein.
I’m outraged by this hateful, anti-Muslim attack in our city. No one should be targeted with slurs, threats, or violence—ever.
Muslim New Yorkers deserve to move through this city in safety and dignity.
Islamophobia has no place here, and we will not tolerate it.
Six years ago, Breonna Taylor, a 26-year-old EMT, was killed in her own home when Louisville police executed a late-night no-knock warrant and fired multiple shots. Her life was stolen in a place that should have been safe. She was a daughter, a dreamer, and a Emergency Medical Technician (EMT) who dedicated her life to helping others. We continue to say her name. Rest in power, Breonna. ✊🏿
The best way to serve this city is to listen to it.
@nyc311 gets contacted 100,000 times every day.
This morning, I stopped by the call center to pick up a few calls from New Yorkers.
