Three years ago today, Hamas carried out a horrific terrorist attack against Israel, murdering 1,200 people and abducting 251 hostages. October 7th became the deadliest day for the Jewish people since the Holocaust, forever changing countless lives.

Three years ago today, Hamas carried out the deadliest attack on the Jewish people since the Holocaust.
We remember those murdered on October 7, hold close the families forever changed by that day, and stand with Jewish communities still carrying its trauma.
We must continue confronting antisemitism and ensuring Jewish New Yorkers can live safely and proudly.
May their memories be a blessing.

Last week, @NYCCTaskForce Co-Chairs Inna Vernikov & @EricDinowitzNYC warmly welcomed courageous Muslim leaders & allies of the Jewish community to City Hall: Mansoor Laghari of the Global Youth Unity Project and Anila Ali of the American Muslim and Multifaith Women’s Empowerment Council. We had a meaningful conversation about how to amplify and encourage moderate Muslim voices, & ways to unify to fight extremism. We have exciting plans ahead and look forward to building bridges together in NYC. 🌉

This honor of an antisemitic and racist individual at the Met Gala should never have happened. Thank you to @SpeakerMenin and others
for spearheading this issue and being in the forefront of the effort to get Galliano's name withdrawn. nytimes.com/2026/08/31/style…

After my numerous and lengthy meetings and conversations with The Met, I am pleased that they have agreed to not honor John Galliano.
From the beginning, I have told them that I strongly disagreed with this decision, and at this rising time of antisemitism, it had served as a gut punch to the Jewish community. This is the correct decision, as the harm and pain this was causing was simply unacceptable.
Museums such as The Met must be held to a high standard of inclusiveness and tolerance, and I am pleased that they have listened to the concerns I have raised and reacted with the right decision.
As the daughter of a Holocaust survivor, and as the first Jewish speaker of the New York City Council, this decision was personal to me, and the Jewish community and I felt a strong obligation to speak out.

NYC is home to the largest Jewish population in the U.S.
Jewish attorneys have long made up a significant share of New York's legal profession. The complete absence of Jewish representation on the Mayor's Advisory Committee on the Judiciary is neither representative nor inclusive. It is deeply concerning and cannot be dismissed as an oversight.
We stand with New York City's Jewish Bar Associations in urging Mayor Mamdani to correct this omission. nbcnewyork.com/news/politics…

Disgraceful and disgusting.
Whether it’s a swastika or college students trying to ban Hillels, antisemitism must have no home anywhere.
Thank you @nyuniversity for addressing and speaking out against this swiftly.
Those responsible must be held accountable cbsnews.com/newyork/news/swa…

Hate crimes against Jewish New Yorkers are rising. And too many of the people committing them are kids. That's not just a law enforcement problem. That's a failure of education.
Today the @NYCCouncil Task Force to Combat Anti-Semitism held its first hearing. We're not waiting for this to get worse. Thank you to Co-Chairs @InnaVernikov & @EricDinowitzNYC for leading this fight.

I’m proud to sponsor this package, including my bill to protect safe access to educational institutions.
Two op-eds in @amNewYork and @NYDailyNews back the Council's Safe Access plan.
New Yorkers deserve to exercise their right to protest and their right to worship without fear. These bills will establish clear protections for houses of worship while upholding First Amendment rights.
