Last time the Knicks made it to the NBA Finals in 1999:

1) Redbird trains were still operating
2) The orange Q existed
3) You could pay your fare with a subway token
4) Dr. Zizmor ads were everywhere in our system

What’s did you do to piss off some people so bad?? A voter asks Alex Bores about the attack ads.
“It’s three Trump mega donors… and they don’t like that there’s any regulation on AI whatsoever.”

FACT CHECK: Trump’s claims that Biden’s immigration policies will “destroy” social security are false. Undocumented immigrants aren't eligible to receive Social Security retirement benefits, but many still pay into it through payroll deductions.

I had a premature baby born at 26.5 weeks, 1 lb 14 oz. These babies cannot live without incubators. This is horrific.

US must insist that Israel allow in fuel & pause Gaza bombings. @potus has said Israel must follow intl law. What’s happening now is not that & we must insist.

Today was a great day to celebrate the diversity of Queens. First stop was to help Tomchei Shabbos and @MetCouncil distribute food to those in need for the upcoming Jewish holiday of Passover. 🧵 1/2

The Assembly is fighting to fund safety net providers. Nurses need our support to provide quality care to New Yorkers, and last week, I joined @nynurses to call for state investments for strengthened nursing practices and improved recruitment & retention efforts.

The @nyccouncil today passed my resolution in support of a bill sponsored by @repgracemeng to make Lunar New Year a federal holiday. Having the support of the most diverse City Council in the history of NYC will show lawmakers there is broad support for making this a reality.

[Grace Lee 李榮恩 @graceleefornyc]

32 new co-sponsors for our bill to make Lunar New Year a state holiday! These are gold slips. If you want your colleagues to co-sponsor your bill you can ask them to fill one out. These days you can also just send an email but the gold slips are way more fun!

[Grace Lee 李榮恩 @graceleefornyc]

Happy #LunarNewYear from my family to yours!🧧🐇

新年快乐

새해 복 많이 받으세요

Chúc mừng năm mới

Proud to stand with and support @wyc4nyc for City Council District 43. Supporters packed the room for Wai Yee because we all know she has the experience, knowledge and passion to be a leader in City Hall for our communities. Lets go Wai Yee 2023!

I am honored to be named Co-Chair of the APA Task Force along with my colleague @ZohranKMamdani. Thank you @CarlHeastie for entrusting me with this leadership role. It is a privilege to be a voice for Asian American communities across New York State.

[Grace Lee 李榮恩 @graceleefornyc]

Today I was officially sworn in as an assemblymember and voted to make Carl Heastie our speaker (in just one vote). Ready to get to work!

[Trip Yang @TrippyYang]

My op-ed with @graceleefornyc urging Democrats to not take Asian American and Pacific Islander voters + communities for granted was the 10th most read op-ed in @GothamGazette this year!
