I am incredibly grateful to @tiffany_caban and @alexaforcouncil for their endorsements! Council Member Caban has spent her career fighting for true safety, equity, and justice both as a public defender and in office. And as chair of the Committee on Immigration, Council Member Avilés worked tirelessly to combat ICE’s assault on the most vulnerable in our communities. We know that through investing in the needs of our communities, not ICE or senseless wars abroad, we can build a system that protects all of us. We have 8 days left, click the link in bio to help us to take our fight to Congress.
Kristen is an editor at the Queens Chronicle. Her signature was forged on AM Rajkumar’s ballot access petitions, along with those of more than 1000 other AD-38 constituents.
My opponent seems to think democracy is a joke. On 6/23, voters can decide whether they think it’s funny.
NYC Mayor Zohran Mamdani just said he bought his Knicks tickets for almost $1,000 from Madison Square Garden, and that he'll be standing for the whole game. In response to a question from a reporter about a potential ICE raid in NYC, he said he believes ICE should be abolished.
Congratulations to @DrSusanLK on her appointment to COGE. Susan is a democratic socialist and a political scientist whose expertise has guided us for years. Shows the mayor is serious about bringing together the city's smartest leaders to speed up services and deliver for NYC.
Last year, @ZohranKMamdani showed the entire country that people power can beat a machine. I’m thrilled to have his support!
I look forward to fighting for our shared vision of a more affordable New York—one where we invest in our communities, not in bombs abroad—in Congress.
In lieu of Zohran/AOC/Bernie endorsements, I think Robert Jackson is as good an endorsement as Darializa can get. He really is what Espaillat portrays himself to be: A beloved local titan deeply enmeshed in community institutions. His constituent services are downright legendary.
Today marks Nakba Day, an annual day of remembrance to commemorate the expulsion of more than 700,000 Palestinians between 1947 and 1949 during the creation of the State of Israel and the year that followed.
Inea is a New Yorker and a Nakba survivor. She shared her story with us — one of home, tradition and memory over generations.
ICE's beating & kidnapping of a New Yorker on Sat —followed by NYPD's escalation of violence against protestors—underscore the urgent need to pass New York 4 All.
ICE is not welcome in NY. NYPD must be accountable for their violence against protesters.

I’m incredibly honored to be joining the Mayor’s office to improve our city’s buses for the over one million New Yorkers who depend on them everyday. We’re going to make buses fast and free!
NEW: As New York leaders argue over whether to raise taxes on high earners to help solve NYC’s multibillion-dollar budget gap, Gov. Kathy Hochul has decided to push for a yearly tax aimed at second homes in the city that are worth $5 million or more. https://t.co/orLkq3oRR2
