With 80.9% of scanners reported in New York City, it's basically Hochul 70% - Zeldin 30%.

$858 billion for war, meanwhile teachers, childcare workers, home aides, nurses, social workers and counselors are paycheck to paycheck. We’re spending so much to defend a nation that’s being gutted out by its national leaders.

83 Senators voted to pass a $858 BILLION defense budget this week. That's $2.3 billion a day. $97 million an hour. All being funneled to an agency that has never passed a SINGLE audit and can't account for over HALF its assets 🚨🚨🚨

There are some who think we must have decorum even while people across this city are losing everything. But those people didn’t elect me. My community sent me to fight for them exactly as the person I am and always have been.

Can someone make a delivery app platform that can be owned by the workers? I bet a lot of New Yorkers would love to skip the middle man.

Dear @helloDCWP ~ @DoorDash in Brooklyn is paying $4.50 for a delivery that is expected be done in 21 minutes (2.7 miles) at 8:44 pm. This job becomes more dangerous at night, specially when we have travel long distance for so little money. @NYCMayor : We deserve a minimum pay.

My dear hermaña @tiffany_caban is being smeared with lies from the NY Post, which is a political project of a ruthless billionaire who doesn’t care about you. It takes guts to name when our system isn’t working and to be dedicated to better solutions. The attacks are shameful.

📣Intro #1867 passed today! It enfranchises 800k permanent residents for NYC municipal elections. What a huge win for immigrant justice and democracy! Thinking of my father who arrived to Jamaica, QNS at 17 - Black and undocumented. How far NYC has come since then. Pa’lante!✊🏽

The assumptions here are so wild. The dismissing of Black and Brown women who do a ton of work in community, on housing, on safety, is ignorant and harmful. Does she think this demand was created 10 days ago? This narrative is tired.

"Let's have all the people who are now calling themselves activists" who have been calling their council members for the first time step it up, move beyond hashtags, and actually engage with their communities and join their community boards, says @cmlauriecumbo

Today the BOE and @NYCMayor made the backwards decision to not comply with the gov's 30% petition threshold, & actually increased # of signatures required, knocking myself & others off the ballot. This is far from over, we will fight on. My statement:

I refuse to share videos of police shootings of Black people anymore. This is #JacobBlake : A father, a husband, who was shot 7 times in the back. Hoping for his recovery and justice for him and his family.

This is why we must disband the NYPD Strategic Response Group. The use of our public dollars to arrest abortion defenders should never happen.

Two of NYC’s best lawyers @gideonoliver @wylielawfirm helped win $13M for 1300 New Yorkers who brutally had their constitutional rights violated during the 2020 Black Lives Matter protests. This is the largest class action protest settlement ever.
