Standing outside 26 Federal Plaza this morning to call out a quiet injustice: asylum seekers facing pretermission without a fair hearing.
This is the federal government denying due process. We must organize and pursue legal avenues to stop it.

This is the time for Americans to create a country we deserve. I’m proud to stand by our neighbors and fight everyday for a better future.

We are demanding justice for all of our neighbors that this fascist regime has illegally kidnapped and stripped of their constitutional rights. Neighbors like 6 year old Yuanxin Zheng, who was separated from his father in Astoria.

ICE must be abolished. It has become a lawless, rogue agency. Federal law enforcement agencies must follow the law, if they're going to have any credibility enforcing it.
We are demanding justice for Renee Good and the prosecution of ICE agent Jonathan Ross for her murder.

Sanctuary cities protect our neighbors, welcome new ones, and foster the American Dream. The President doesn't decide where federal money is spent — Congress does. And in Congress, I will work to defend New York and our vibrant immigrant communities.

Iranian women are courageously leading the call for the right to choose their own leadership and live free from repression — at enormous personal risk. It is profoundly inspiring, and echoing across the globe.

It’s a rotten economy when nurses have to strike for safe staffing ratios, decent working conditions, and healthcare benefits of their own. They care for us when we’re sick, the least we can do is have their backs.

The nurses’ very reasonable demands aren’t radical - but Mt. Sinai’s union-busting is. They fired 3 workers just last night and are forcing NYSNA to bring unfair labor practice charges before Trump’s rigged NLRB.

This morning at 7am I joined @nynurses.bsky.social on the picket line at Mt. Sinai, where nurses are on strike for a fair contract. These are the workers who keep our healthcare system running.

An arsonist torched a Mississippi synagogue. It feels hauntingly familiar.
A rabbi who served The Temple in Atlanta, bombed in 1958, reflects on arson at a Jackson, Miss. synagogue — and how history repeats itself.

I promise to always put working people first - not billionaires. New Yorkers deserve representation that supports their best interests, not the interests of the wealthy few.

I have been honored to call the Working Families Party my political home for 25 years. NY-10 has the most WFP voters in not only the city, but also the state. The district has been a pivotal space for the growth of @nywfp.bsky.social.

In the spring I joked that the real winner of the Mayor's race was @ny4childcare.bsky.social thanks to their organizing for universal childcare. Today's announcement is the culmination of that work.
The goal of the multiyear plan, which Ms. Hochul is expected to introduce alongside the mayor in an appearance Thursday morning and will be a part of her State of the State address on Jan. 13, would be to offer universal access to children statewide, her office said.

I'm sickened and heartbroken by ICE shooting an unarmed woman in the head in Minneapolis. We can never accept this violence as normal or accept anything short of justice for these victims. We will continue to show up — together — to protect each other.
