.Every day there’s another headline about the “socialist takeover.”
Since 2021, I’ve been busy passing bills, serving my district, and delivering resources to my community. And I’m just one of many democratic socialists doing this work.
We believe everyone deserves dignity, opportunity, and a government that works for working people.
We’ll keep choosing love over fear, unity over division, and action over headlines. ❤️
As an immigrant rights attorney, I’ve won hundreds of thousands of dollars for wronged workers and protected countless people from Trump’s deportation machine. Now, I’m running for Assembly District 38, backed by Bernie & AOC. We can’t afford to wait for an affordable Queens.
A statement on the horrific situation at Delaney Hall—unlivable, inhumane conditions so poor that 300+ detained immigrants are on hunger strike, as well as the violent repression of the protestors who showed up in solidarity.
We did it, y’all. We passed my bill, the SUNNY Act, to bring plug-in solar to NY.
Balcony solar will reduce New Yorkers’ utility bills AND their emissions. It will dramatically expand who has access to the solar economy and strengthen the power of the renewable movement 💪🏼🌞.
Yesterday, @NYC_DOT broke ground to complete the redesign of McGuiness Blvd. McGuinness has been the site of so much unnecessary injury & death. This has been a fight many years in the making.
This victory belongs to all the people who have been harmed by traffic violence.
This budget presented a clear opportunity to stand with NYers over oligarchs: NY’s richest are getting $12B in tax cuts, while nearly half a million NYers lose their healthcare as a result.
This ain’t it, but we’re not done. We will be back and we will tax the rich.
This was a big week! I passed two bills to make New Yorkers healthier and safer AND passed my balcony solar bill, The SUNNY Act, through committee.
🥳🥳🥳
My bill, No Toxics Tent Act, passed the Assembly!
This bill removes the outdated requirement that tents include toxic and unnecessary fire retardant chemicals. NY is the last state in the country to have this requirement.
Just in time for a healthier camping season! 🏕️
Socialists in Office and our insurgent candidates are putting themselves on the line to stop the Trump-Hochul cuts and tax the rich.
Hochul is acting like this is just another budget when millions of lives are at stake. Tax the rich, @GovKathyHochul.
BREAKING 🚨New Yorkers are occupying Gov Hochul's office calling on her to TAX THE RICH & stop Trump's cuts to our Medicaid, SNAP benefits, & essential services.
Time for @GovKathyHochul to choose our lives over her rich donors.
Council Member Chi Ossé was just arrested while defending his constituent, Carmella Charrington, from eviction. This is the result of deed theft and the ongoing displacement of Black homeowners in Bed-Stuy. Our office is closely monitoring this situation and will provide updates as this develops.
[EXPLAINING THIS TO NEWLY ACTIVATED YOUNG VOTERS]: so basically uhh peak labor just taxmogged Kathy Hochul. over 300,000 union members are locking in for revenuemaxxing,
Our lawsuit against Jenifer Rajkumar’s campaign has just begun. Despite the Rajkumar campaign’s highly misleading statement, today’s report from the BOE did not rule on fraud, and we look forward to pursuing our case at the Queens Supreme Court as planned.
NEW: David Orkin, the DSA-backed challenger to AM Jenifer Rajkumar, sued her for alleged petition fraud yesterday.
Orkin got suspicious after learning Rajkumar’s petitions of support included a supposed signature from *one of his own volunteers* https://t.co/yByS9jN5W7
We need more renewables to protect NYers from skyrocketing energy prices driven by war, corporate greed, and Trump’s fossil fuel agenda.
But developers are threatening to cancel major renewable projects right when we need them the most.
So why is this happening? 🧵
