Our immigrant neighbors define the New York hustle. To suggest that they are destroying our city is defeatist and insulting. This was irresponsible and is already emboldening xenophobic & anti immigrant rhetoric. NYC can’t be destroyed.

“I don’t see an ending to this. This issue will DESTROY New York City," Mayor Adams says in some dire comments about the migrants coming to New York City. "The city we knew, we're about to lose."

Effective immediately, your boss cannot punish you for skipping captive audience meetings. We’re unapologetically clearing roadblocks for workers trying to organize. This one is for the young people leading the next wave of the labor movement ✊🏼

BREAKING: New York Gov. Kathy Hochul just signed a law banning captive audience meetings, a huge win for union organizers. These meetings are used by employers to force workers to listen to lies from expensive union-busters. Now, workers can’t be penalized for skipping them.

Last night’s vote by the Rent Guidelines Board was shockingly irresponsible, completely detached from the reality tenants are facing in our city. Working class New Yorkers cannot afford to live in this city…(🧵)

Just spoke to the precinct. They said they had to escort the Proud Boys bc the were picking fights w people on the street like vendors as well as reporters. Still, this wouldn't look so hypocritical if NYPD would stop arresting people of color over a $2.75 fare.

Governor Cuomo failed to include a single Latinx or Asian judge in his judiciary committee nominees for the NYS Court of Claims. Most don't reflect the diverse populations they'll serve & I couldn't approve of these nominees when we have many qualified professionals across NY.

Our cash bail system is a disgrace that disproportionately hurts Black, Brown and poor Americans. New York did the right thing by reforming its bail law and must not go backwards. When we are in the White House, we will end cash bail nationally.
