The Mayor shouldn't control our schools. We should. The COVID crisis has shown students, teachers & parents what little say we have in our education. That can end this year if we end Mayoral Control. I'm running for Assembly to make sure we do. Join us at

In what world is it legal for @ConEdison to double their rates from one month to another and just devastate households across NY? They didn’t even give people a heads up. I live out on Staten Island and this might be one of the few issues where Rs and Ds would organize together.

The Bronx faces a crisis of literacy with ~70% of 3rd graders unable to read at grade level. While our education system turns its back on our kids, I’m fighting for fully-funded schools & abundant resources that empower our kids to achieve their dreams. We deserve nothing less.

Hey @Benedetto4NY , many of your Bronx colleagues condemned the governor’s racist remarks against Black kids. As education chair in the assembly, do you condemn her racism? Or are you worried that standing against racism will upset your racist supporters and donors?
