We’re making major upgrades to New York’s unemployment system to better serve New Yorkers! Thank you, Senator @PatriciaFahy46, for inviting me on Chat with Pat to discuss what this upgrade means for your constituents. 🎧: brnw.ch/21x6xMH

Both women are smiling, wearing professional black blazers, and have microphones and blue mugs in front of them. In the background, a television screen displays the New York State Senate seal, flanked by the United States flag on the left and the New York State flag on the right. Bookshelves filled with books line the sides of the wood-paneled studio.

Happy to do my part to keep New York safe this flu season! Protect yourself, your family, and your community by scheduling your flu shot today. CDC studies show flu vaccination reduced the risk of a flu-related doctor's visit by 40-60%. Learn more: brnw.ch/21x6w5V

Justice has been served for NYC construction workers cheated out of hard-earned pay. Wage theft is unacceptable. Thank you to @ManhattanDA for partnering with @NYSLabor to protect our workforce. If you’ve been underpaid, come forward—we have your back.

Commissioner Reardon and DA Bragg stand in the center-left, surrounded by a diverse group of smiling workers wearing black WJP t-shirts. Several workers in the front row sit at a wooden table holding white envelopes, while others hold up red and blue signs that read "PROTECTING NEW YORK WORKERS" featuring the Manhattan DA's seal. A Telemundo 47 microphone rests on the table in the foreground.

Thrilled to march alongside @GovKathyHochul and amazing peers at the NYC Columbus Day Parade! 🇮🇹 This annual tradition brings New Yorkers together to celebrate Italian American heritage and recognize the generations of Italian Americans who have helped shape our city and state.

At @NYSLabor, we encourage employers to invest in Registered Apprenticeships, and we’re leading by example. I had the chance to meet our first class of Registered Apprentices in our Division of Safety and Health (DOSH). What an impressive group! 👏

The group of eight women is lined up, with several apprentices wearing matching navy blue NYS Department of Labor polo shirts and ID badges.

Great day in Glens Falls! Every dollar spent at our local eateries, shops, and year-round markets doesn't just support a dream, it keeps vibrant communities like those in @warrencountyny growing. Thank you, Warren County EDC, for the wonderful tour.

Building a stronger New York means investing in the people who build it. Great to join Operating Engineers from across the state at their biennial Summer Conference to share how @GovKathyHochul’s budget is investing in workers, infrastructure, and opportunities for New Yorkers.

I was honored to celebrate Building Trades Peer Support Network graduates and recognize @NYSBCTC and affiliates for changing the culture around mental health in the trades—creating space to talk openly and showing that unions look out for the whole person.

During Construction Suicide Prevention Week, it’s especially important to acknowledge the vital work of the Peer Support Network in uplifting one another and raising awareness, because no one should bear this burden alone. For help, call 988 or visit 988.ny.gov.

This is the power of the Registered Apprenticeship Program! 💪 So proud of their work on the new @HighmarkStadm. It will be great to see how their skills and experience stay with them long after this project. Well done! 👏

Imagine starting your career on a project you’ll be able to point to and say, “I helped build that.” Apprentices at the new @HighmarkStadm earned while they learned, gaining hands-on experience and skills they can carry into careers in the trades. ❤️💙

25 years after 9/11, New York remembers the workers who ran toward danger and stayed to help NYC recover. @NYSDOLCommish joined @GovKathyHochul, @NYCMayor, @DMJulieSu, union leaders and members for the @CentralLaborNYC 2026 NYC Labor Day Rally & March.
