@SenMikeLee Ummmm liberty, peace, and prosperity according to whom??? That's why democracy IS the objective. You probably shouldn't be serving as a senator if you have it that twisted...
Make no mistake about it. The Green New Deal is far less expensive than losing our planet to the greed of the fossil fuel industry.
Medicare for All is far less expensive than the status quo that leaves 92 million uninsured or under-insured.
The fight for justice goes on.
The 2nd, 3rd & 4th largest wildfires in California's history continue to rage. The sky on the West Coast turned red & orange. Please don't tell me the Green New Deal is radical. What's radical is having a president in office who rejects science and calls climate change a hoax.
The fires across the West Coast are just the latest examples of the very real ways our changing climate is changing our communities. Protecting our planet is on the ballot. Vote like your life depends on it—because it does.
A 17 year old white supremacist domestic terrorist drove across state lines, armed with an AR 15.
He shot and killed 2 people who had assembled to affirm the value, dignity, and worth of Black lives.
Fix your damn headlines.
@DanielBennettNY Gotcha, thx for clarifying. But I think ppl are all evaluating their own risk (and processing trauma) and even outdoors can feel like a bridge too far. Can’t speak for ppl you know but aesthetics of outside performance are wayyy diff for me than indoor and that’s a factor too.
New Yorkers will not be content with low hanging fruit, when what's needed is to uproot the tree.
Without an NYPD hiring freeze and a commitment to a just transition away from the current school safety model, I‘ll use my Charter power to prevent the execution of the budget.
This is a naked abuse of power. I’ve already called for AG William Barr to resign & for Congress to impeach him. Congress should pass my bill now to defund Barr’s authority to interfere with matters related to Trump, his family, & his campaign.

Working with @STOPSpyingNY, we intro’d a bill that would outlaw this practice. I hope to get that passed, but NYPD could end the practice right now and give us assurances that exercising our constitutional rights won’t get us in a database. (5/6) https://t.co/rVKLo20Yc4
Absolutely appalled by the actions of #NYPD officers in #Brooklyn tonight. These officers clearly did not learn this in training and another crash course won’t solve the problem. I call on the @NYCMayor and Commissioner @NYPDShea to bring those responsible to justice immediately.
