So disappointing to see politics tainting the process and jeopardizing the confirmation of Judge #HectorLaSalle to become the first Latino to be the Chief Judge of the NYS Court of Appeals. @GovKathyHochul@NYGovPaterson55 https://t.co/LEBYBjRiE5
Congrats to @nycfuture for its compilation of "150 Ideas to Build a More Equitable NYC" (https://t.co/fihNntBz1U), including my proposal to create a virtual archive of free K-12, college and adult ed courses accessible to anyone, anytime. Lots of other great ideas in the report!

Happy to share my latest op-ed, calling for greater assistance to minority-owned businesses, modeled on @GovKathyHochul's proposed program for cannabis #EquityEntrepreneurs. It's time to move past #MWBE programs and help more minority-owned companies! https://t.co/cgFqOq3lg6
Delighted to welcome @NYCMayor Eric Adams, Deputy Mayor Sheena Wright, @AMEddieGibbs and others to @UnionSettlement today for the Mayor's announcement of proposed additional funding for the Earned Income Tax Credit and incentives to expand affordable child care. #EastHarlem#EITC

Proud to report that @UnionSettlement is supporting the #JustPay campaign demanding that NYC and NYS support human services workers by ensuring that all government contracts with nonprofits provide annual COLAs, a higher minimum wage, and equitable benefits. @HSC_NY@UNHNY
Happy Thanksgiving! Delighted to spend the morning with @UnionSettlement's Senior Services staff and volunteers, @CityMeals and @RealKTurner, packing and delivering Meals-on-Wheels and Grab-and-Go lunches for our seniors!
An amazing day here at @UnionSettlement, as we give away 500 turkeys and sides to our #EastHarlem neighbors in need. Special thanks to our donors and volunteers, including @PonceBank, @CocaCola, @ChapinSchoolNYC and Innovation Charter High School. Happy Thanksgiving everyone!!
Delighted to have @NYCDCA Commissioner Peter Hatch and @NYCCHR Commissioner Annabel Palma and their teams come to @UnionSettlement yesterday to talk about partnering on community outreach and education on human rights and consumer and worker protection issues here in #EastHarlem!
Congratulations and thank you to @ETCNYORG, one of @UnionSettlement's wonderful partners here in #EastHarlem, for hosting its 12th Annual Legislative Breakfast yesterday. Congrats also to my fellow honorees @BrooklynDA, @VanessaLGibson, and Christina Hernandez from @NYSOCFS!!
Thanks so much to Vocal Ease (https://t.co/b7cyxqnyVJ) for entertaining seniors from @UnionSettlement's senior centers and Franklin Plaza NORC program! A beautiful afternoon of wonderful music and songs in our community garden here in #EastHarlem!!
Huge thanks to @RepEspaillat and Dr. Karen E. Thornton MD for providing a mobile #COVID19 vaccine van here at @UnionSettlement's main building at 237 East 104th Street today and Thursday! All three vaccines available 10 am to 6 pm, with no appointments necessary. #EastHarlem
In an amazing display of unity, ALMOST 1,000 nonprofit employees have signed a letter calling on @NYCMayor to provide a $17.50/hour wage to nonprofit employees working on City contracts. They deserve decent pay!! https://t.co/ruYXBKkQEj https://t.co/CNdwFwKrvK @UnionSettlement
Enjoy this photograph of the children in @UnionSettlement's Leggett Early Childhood Center who participated in this morning's "moving up" ceremony. Congratulations to the "graduates," and to their teachers, parents, and everyone else who assisted throughout the year!!
@unionsettlement@Citi Thanks so much to @Citi for this wonderful support -- and thanks especially to @UnionSetttlement's business development team, for working so hard to help #EastHarlem's small businesses survive during the pandemic. Such amazing work at such a crucial time!!!
Read why @UnionSettlement is establishing a $16/hour minimum wage - with a goal of reaching $17.50/hour. @NYCMayor should follow the model of @POTUS, and issue an Executive Order creating (and funding) a $17.50/hour wage for all NYC contractors! https://t.co/8RMdTVbhhZ
Very busy day today at @UnionSettlement -- we're giving away 600 boxes of fresh food, and offering free COVID vaccines to all #EastHarlem residents!! Huge thanks to partners @GrowNYC, @NYCHealthSystem, NYC Test& Trace Corps and the NYC Vaccine Command Center.
