Meanwhile, @PeteHegseth’s agenda consists of leaking confidential information every moment he can.

[Pete Hegseth @PeteHegseth]

@TheDemocrats Your agenda is illegals, trans & DEI — all of which are no longer allowed @ DoD.

[Kathy Hochul @KathyHochul]

My opponent just admitted he’d be fine with ICE agents recklessly shooting into a vehicle without knowing who’s inside. They could have killed a five-year-old child in the Bronx.

ICE is out of control, and yet Bruce Blakeman is okay with that.

[Kathy Hochul @KathyHochul]

Bruce Blakeman might as well be the president of Trump's loser fan club. He doesn’t have the spine to stand up for New York families. He answers to one person and one person only — Donald Trump.

[Kathy Hochul @KathyHochul]

Bruce Blakeman wants to put data centers in your community, even if it means higher costs for New Yorkers. That’s his idea of a more sustainable future.

New Yorkers ought to hear that and run for the hills.

[Lynn Schulman 舒曼琳 @Lynn4NYC]

Shame on @Bruce_Blakeman for using the pain of crime victims to justify using ICE agents to terrorize immigrant communities. @GovKathyHochul has proven time and again her commitment to the public safety of all New Yorkers, both through legislation and funding.

[Assemblymember Steven Raga @RagaForQueens]

Proud to have the support of Equality New York PAC, a grassroots organization fighting to advance the lives of LGBTQIA+ New Yorkers and their families across our state.

From advocacy and community building to holding elected officials accountable, Equality New York has been a strong statewide voice for protecting rights, expanding justice, and ensuring LGBTQIA+ communities have the power to shape our future.

We're fighting for a New York where every person can live with dignity, safety, and opportunity, no matter who they are or who they love. 🏳️‍🌈🏳️‍⚧️

🚨🚨ALL HANDS ON DECK!🚨🚨

The fight to protect fair elections takes each and every one of us being part of the fight.

Republicans know they cannot win in November so they are doing everything they can to change the rules to their benefit.

We cannot sit by and let them do it.

[Democrats @TheDemocrats]

The Supreme Court has gutted the Voting Rights Act.

Join us for a virtual briefing on May 4 to learn how we are fighting back against the Louisiana v. Callais decision and ensuring every American has their voice heard this November: https://t.co/7Dhzdd912C

[Hakeem Jeffries @RepJeffries]

Actually, Iran did sign a nonnuclear deal in 2015 under the leadership of President Obama.

You blew it up.

Then plunged America into another reckless and costly war of choice in the Middle East.

[Grace Meng @Grace4NY]

IBEW Local 3 members keep the lights on across the city! I'm proud to have earned their endorsement and to continue to fight for them and all working New Yorkers in Congress.

[Governor Kathy Hochul @GovKathyHochul]

The Supreme Court has been chipping away at our elections for years. It is clearly carrying out Donald Trump’s will with this decision.

New York has always led the fight for voting rights and we’ll lead again.

I’m working with the Legislature to change New York’s redistricting process so we can fight back against Washington’s attempts to rig our democracy.

[Assemblymember Steven Raga @RagaForQueens]

Councilmember Shekar Krishnan has been a powerful progressive voice for Queens, fighting for working families, immigrant communities, tenants, street vendors, drivers, and the public spaces our neighborhoods deserve.

I’ve been proud to stand alongside him in the fight for equity and civil rights—most recently at my press conference to end caste discrimination. On issues that matter deeply to our communities, Shekar has shown what it means to lead with courage, accountability, and real commitment to justice.

Here’s what he shared in support of our campaign:

“Steven Raga is exactly the kind of leader our communities need right now—grounded in service, responsive to working families, and deeply committed to equity. I’ve seen firsthand his ability to deliver for constituents, from expanding access to essential services to fighting for more inclusive, affordable neighborhoods. Steven brings both heart and results to public service, and I’m proud to support him.”

I’m deeply grateful to have Councilmember Shekar Krishnan’s endorsement in this campaign for State Senate District 12, and proud to keep building alongside leaders who show up for Queens every day.

[Grace Meng @Grace4NY]

Happy Earth Day!

Together, let's continue working to ensure every community has access to clean air and water and protect our planet for our kids and generations to come.

Reporter: What do you make of Republicans saying that Virginia—

AOC: Wah wah wah.

We have asked Republicans for 10 years to ban partisan gerrymandering. And for 10 years, Republicans have said no. Republicans have fought for partisan gerrymanders across the United States of America. And these are the rules that they have set.

And so if the Republican Party wanted to start this, they did this in North Carolina. They drew out three Democratic members of Congress in North Carolina. They did it in Texas.

What they’re just mad at is that they have been accustomed to a Democratic Party that rolls over, doesn’t fight, and takes everything sitting down. And what they’re mad at right now is that we are here in a new day. And we have been asking the Democratic Party to stand up and fight, and now they did—and now the Republican Party doesn’t like the fact that they are fighting against someone who actually will stand up for the American people.

So if Republicans decide that they would like to revisit a ban on partisan gerrymandering, I welcome them. We have the bill right here to end this all today. But they don’t want to, because they like pursuing and continuing to enact an unfair electoral landscape. And so we have an obligation to defend ourselves.

[Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez @AOC]

Hell yes. This is the energy.

[Headquarters @HQNewsNow]

Q: If Democrats do win back the House, will you advance a bill to ban gerrymandering?

Leader @HakeemJeffries: Democrats want to establish one national standard that would prohibit mid-decade partisan gerrymandering. But we’re not going to unilaterally disarm.

[Hakeem Jeffries @RepJeffries]

House Democrats have crushed Donald Trump’s national gerrymandering scheme.

Prop 50 in California ✅
Dummymander in Texas ✅
Pushed them back in Ohio ✅
Picked up a seat in Utah ✅
Stopped them in Indiana ✅
Stopped them in Kansas ✅
Stopped them in Nebraska ✅
Stopped them in NH ✅
Big win in Virginia ✅

Maximum warfare, everywhere, all the time.

[Hakeem Jeffries @hakeemjeffries]

Stop the MAGA power grab.

Polls close at 7:00 pm.

[Rep. Gregory Meeks @RepGregoryMeeks]

Republicans are working overtime to block critical bills. Democrats are using discharge petitions to force votes on issues YOU care about.

✅Passed bill to lower health care costs
✅Passed bill to extend TPS for Haiti
✅Passed bill to release the Epstein Files

[Grace Meng @Grace4NY]

ICE is targeting and detaining New Yorkers based only on what they look like and the languages they're speaking. It's clear discrimination, and far from making us safe, these tactics are putting our immigrant friends and neighbors in danger. https://t.co/TvtzsLxZSX

[Assemblymember Steven Raga @RagaForQueens]

I'm proud to earn the endorsement of Citizen Action of New York, an organization that has long fought for the bold, people-first policies our state needs.

In the People's House, I've championed many of these same fights — from taxing the rich and investing in public education and universal child care, to expanding health care access, defending immigrant communities, advancing housing justice, and taking real action on climate.

Our campaign is grateful to have Citizen Action’s support as we build a grassroots campaign in Western Queens rooted in working-class power and a vision of New York that is more just, more equitable, and accountable to everyday people.

[Mr. Met @MrMet]

Happy Passover, New York!
