Today, we announced a $55,000 fine against an apartment complex in NYC for displaying a poster encouraging tenants to report immigrants to ICE based on national origin.
We're here to protect your rights as a New Yorker, no matter where you come from.

Discrimination is still illegal—no matter the circumstances.
In New York State, you are protected against discrimination in employment, housing, education, and public spaces based on race, gender, disability, sexual orientation, religion, and more.

Today, DHR Commissioner Denise M. Miranda, Esq. joined @GovKathyHochul in East Flatbush, Brooklyn along with @CMFarahLouis , @AMBichotte , and other partners in government to visit & show support for businesses in "Little Haiti", one of the largest Haitian communities in the US.
Murder and gun crime have reached a 60-year low in New York.
We’re making a real difference in lowering crime. But no matter how good the statistics are, we’re never going to stop working to make our state even safer.
BEST MOMENT OF NIGHT AT DNC:
Michelle Obama to Trump: “Who is going to tell him that the job that he is currently seeking might just me one of those ‘black jobs’?”
I prosecuted sex predators. Trump is one.
I shut down for-profit scam colleges. He ran one.
I held big banks accountable. He's owned by them.
I'm not just prepared to take on Trump, I'm prepared to beat him.
BREAKING: CNN just released their fact check of Donald Trump throughout the debate. It turns out Donald Trump lied on just about every answer. Retweet so all Americans see this vital fact check on Trump’s BS.
Trump owes around $355,000,000 and there are roughly 8,500,000 New Yorkers, that means Trump owes each of us about $42 dollars.
You can buy a nice 13 gallon touchless garbage can for 42 bucks. I think we each should get one, courtesy of Trump, to remind us to throw away the trash
Before you begin your thinkpiece, the Supreme Court DID NOT strike down Affirmative Action
Admission preferences for legacies, donors, employee families and special recommendations are still allowed
The Court struck down Affirmative Action For everyone except WHITE PEOPLE
I wrote about human hubris, the Titan disaster, and why Yoruba religious tradition warned us long ago to leave the deep ocean alone

“This is about targeting women of color in the United States of America.”
—@AOC responding to Republicans’ removal of Rep. @Ilhan Omar from the Foreign Affairs Committee
If they say “get on the ground”’and you get on the ground, say “I’m on the ground” and you STILL get tased and pepper sprayed.
What else are you supposed to do but run?
So much for that whole “if he only he had complied” narrative.
